In RiMS, that’s not that case, they want you racing elbows to the ground from the very first corner, and that is only the start of the excitement. This may not sound like much to start off with, but in any other racing release this year, this alone is a feature that is usually done for you in the background whilst your focus is on the accelerator and the steering, even braking is usually a secondary focus thanks to some sort of assist. This may seem like an unusual way to begin but the reason for this was due to the fact that before I’d even let wheels hit the track, I was expected to master the false start as the race begins by holding in the clutch and watching on as the lights turned to green before timing my launch to perfection to prevent a stall. My opening moments with the game were met with a quick rush to pause followed by a scroll through the available settings because I’d assumed I was being thrust into the hardest difficulty from the off. RiMS Racing pulls no punches when it comes to offering as realistic a racing experience as possible. Whilst we’ve already the likes of MotoGP 2021 bring top tier racing this year, it’s safe to say that nothing we’ve seen so far, or will likely see for the rest of the year, will match the lofty heights you’ll experience in RiMS. Does it match the high standards that we’ve come to expect from the big hitters in the genre though?Ĭoming from the team over at Raceward Studio and backed by the hefty budget of publisher Nacon, RiMS Racing brings a simulation style racing experience that looks to delve into the world of some of the finest superbikes on the market.

Now though, RiMS Racing has arrived, taking a spot on the grid, and looking to take the racing world by storm.
