Developed by the passionate team at Artefacts Studio in Lyon, this new installment marks a truly historic revolution for the franchise. To hold you over, here are the three pillars that make MXGP 26 the most immersive motocross experience to date:

  • 1. A complete rebuild under Unreal Engine 5: The game has been entirely recreated from scratch. Forget the past: bike physics have been 100% rewritten, rider animations have been completely redesigned, and real-time terrain deformation has been transformed to deliver unique sliding and grip sensations.
  • 2. The complete 2026 Season: Dive into the official championship with all the elite riders from the MXGP and MX2 season, racing on the most demanding and iconic tracks in the world.
  • 3. Limitless customization: An ultra-comprehensive editor allows you to create your rider and customize official bikes from the greatest manufacturers (Kawasaki, Yamaha, Honda, KTM, Husqvarna...) with authentic gear from leading brands (Fox Racing, Alpinestars, Scott, Airoh...).
