TAKING IT TO THE STREETS.
Every year, the Isle of Man hosts a motorcycle race where 1,000cc superbikes tear around a street circuit that rips through a mixture of beautiful countryside and neighbourhoods framed by nightmarish cobblestone walls. On average, 1.3 riders die here every single year in one of the deadliest races that’s unfathomably allowed to take place. The track makes the Nordschleife look like a kiddies’ practice loop – and lucky you gets to pilot a rocket on wheels around this ferocious loop.
Kylotonn has made a decent fist of capturing the drama of it all too. That largely comes down to the feel and location of the 60km track, which is truly unlike anything in racing games. Laser-scanned and faithfully recreated, it revels in the small details of the treacherous circuit and the surrounding environment.
