RiMS Racing has revealed a first look at its gameplay with a new trailer. The new motorcycle racing simulator game features highly realistic graphics, and promises a deep and intricate level of customization.
Published by Nacon and developed by RaceWard Studio, RiMS Racing was initially revealed with an announcement trailer just last month. The first trailer showed the upcoming title's impressive photorealistic graphics, but this new trailer is the first time gamers will get a look at its actual gameplay.
Posted via Nacon's official YouTube channel, the minute-long video shows fans what getting behind the wheel of one of the 200+ horsepower motorbikes will actually look like. The footage starts with a group of racers at the starting line, where they quickly take off into a high-speed competition to get out in front of the pack. The trailer showcases the in-development game from a variety of angles, potentially indicating a toggle ability for RiMS Racing's camera. The game boasts realistic physics, iconic real-world tracks, and over 500 fully licensed components. Players will be able to apply their knowledge on the fly via the Motorbike Status Check, which allows for real-time analysis of the bike's status and performance.
Coming from the same publisher as WRC, RiMS Racing looks like it should be another stellar addition for gamers into the realistic racing genre, with tuning and part customization a huge aspect of the real-life motorcycle racing scene. However, it's far from the only upcoming racing title this year. Racing fans have plenty to look forward to this summer, as indie game Art of Rally is also expected to launch around the same time.
RiMS Racing launches on August 19 for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
