  • The gameplay is user-friendly with excellent tutorials, making it accessible for both newcomers and veteran players.
  • The game features a detailed rider roster with real-world cyclists and teams, enhancing immersion and realism.
  • The game feels like a recycled version of previous titles, lacking significant new content and innovation.
  • Graphics and visuals are still below par for modern standards, with repetitive gameplay mechanics that can feel tedious.

  • graphics
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game feature 3D visuals with dynamic camera angles that enhance the excitement of racing through iconic French landscapes, though they prioritize functional clarity over realism. While some users appreciate the improved visuals, many criticize the repetitive character designs and outdated scenery, suggesting that the graphics feel subpar compared to modern standards. Overall, the focus on gameplay has led to a compromise in visual quality, leaving the graphics feeling somewhat trapped in the past.

    • “The race visuals are rendered in 3D with dynamic camera angles that capture the excitement of the peloton as it winds through iconic French landscapes and famous climbs.”
    • “While the graphics prioritize functional clarity over ultra-realistic detail, they effectively convey the race’s drama and intensity.”
    • “Its fun and has good graphics, just no licensed TT bikes and might take some time to get an accurate update.”
    • “The graphics are still bad; the cyclists all have the same head and the same build, and the scenery is very poor. However, the gameplay is good, and the developers are right to focus on gameplay first. Cyanide is trying something new with this type of game, and they need to offer good gameplay rather than beautiful graphics.”
    • “However, the graphics, user interface, and actual gameplay mechanics feel trapped in the past.”
    • “It’s a strategy game bogged down by outdated visuals and a clunky interface that has seen minimal evolution over the years.”
  • gameplay
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has seen improvements with more user-friendly controls and smoother mechanics compared to previous iterations, making it the best version in years. However, players note that controlling the rider can be complicated, particularly with the "follow" option, and the graphics and overall game mechanics still feel outdated and repetitive. Despite these setbacks, the focus on enhancing gameplay over visuals is appreciated by some players.

    • “The gameplay is very similar to the previous games, but this time the controls are much more user-friendly and the gameplay is smoother.”
    • “The gameplay is good; the developers are right to focus on gameplay first, as they are trying something new with this type of game.”
    • “Gameplay-wise, this is definitely the best version in my view in at least 5+ years of buying them.”
    • “However, the graphics, user interface, and actual gameplay mechanics feel trapped in the past.”
    • “Yet, it suffers from its own setbacks: the graphics, while a slight improvement, still feel below par for modern sports games, and the gameplay mechanics feel more repetitive than rewarding.”
  • atmosphere
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere is enhanced by effective sound design, featuring enthusiastic narration and ambient crowd noise that successfully replicate the excitement of a live cycling event.

    • “The sound design and commentary contribute to the atmosphere, with enthusiastic narration and ambient crowd noise that help replicate the feeling of a live cycling event.”
    • “The game's atmosphere is incredibly immersive, drawing you into its world with stunning visuals and a haunting soundtrack.”
    • “Every detail, from the weather effects to the subtle background sounds, creates a rich and engaging atmosphere that keeps you invested in the experience.”
  • monetization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviewers express disappointment with the monetization strategy, suggesting that it prioritizes profit over quality, resulting in two incomplete games that feel more like cash grabs than authentic creations.

    • “Until the developers realize that, fans are left with two half-games that feel more like cash grabs than genuine passion projects.”
    • “The monetization strategy is so aggressive that it overshadows the actual gameplay experience.”
    • “It feels like every feature is locked behind a paywall, making it hard to enjoy the game without spending extra money.”
  • optimization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is highlighted by its well-organized user interface, which effectively presents detailed information on rider performance, stage profiles, and live race events, enabling players to make informed tactical decisions during competitions.

    • “The UI is well-organized, providing comprehensive data on rider performance, stage profiles, and live race events, which is crucial for making informed tactical decisions in the heat of competition.”
  • replayability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviewers suggest that the game's replayability could be enhanced by reintroducing classic races from previous editions, as the absence of familiar challenges like mountain races has diminished variety. There is a hope that the developers will take this feedback into account for future releases.

    • “I think a game series that releases yearly like this one could benefit greatly from continually bringing back races from older years to bolster its variety and replayability. I hope Cyanide takes note of this because I subtly missed racing up mountains like Ventoux in this year's edition.”

  • stability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is a significant concern, with frequent crashes and bugs, particularly in the new criterium mode, which detracts from the overall enjoyment. Additionally, the multiplayer experience in this mode is often populated by bots, further diminishing its appeal.

    • “Enjoyable, but it's still the exact same game as every other year, with the only exception being the criterium mode that is incredibly buggy and not enjoyable. Especially considering that the game crashes all the time and that the 'multiplayer' in the crit mode is almost always just filled with bots.”
