One of the greatest things about gaming is that there is always someone somewhere championing a niche of enthusiasts. Milestone are based in Italy and have almost single handedly maintained the bike simulator gaming interests year after year.
RIDE is this years motorbike sim, featuring a hundred different bikes and a 15 track world tour. If this is your gaming niche, then check out the Ride system requirements to see if you can get the best from this beautiful spectacle. Ride releases on PC later this week, Friday 27th March.

RIDE is available on Xbox One, PS4 as well as PC. Which means that those requirements above, you see them, the ones that say Ride needs a GTX 780 or even an AMD R9 290X graphics card? They are pretty over the top for a recommended graphics requirement and likely to be the sort of hardware you would need to get RIDE pumped out on Ultra graphics settings. And we certainly expect Ride to look gorgeous on a rig that has the power to turn it all up to max.
Well the good news is we have our own copy of RIDE and we will be benchmarking it on some mid ranged hardware to see what the frame rate deal really is. So stay tuned and for now check out the Ride Launch Trailer below and visit the Ride system requirements report tool to check your system.

Those requirements are ridiculous, graphically this looks like a early PS3 game.
If intel HD graphics 4000 wont be able to run this, i'll be shocked.

Early PS3 games looked far worse than this.

Fudgehog jas a point... I can run Crysis 3 and Metro with playable frame rates on my HD 4000... If HD 4000 can run Crysis 3 and Metro, it can run this... This game is coming to Xbox 360 and PS3 as well mind you...

Honestly, I think that these requirements will not be justified by the graphics. This game is developed by Milestone, they also developed WRC3 + WRC4. Those games are graphically very outdated. Also, it's not safe to say, that the port will be any good. I recommend not preordering this game, at least for the PC.

Cmoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon.... Next gen pacman will have these req-s ....

There is no way that this game would need an Intel i7 and I doubt that you'd require a GTX 780 to max out the game.

i hope so same mate

This game is coming to xbox 360 and PS4 as well... I would not be surprised if those rigs that meet those "minimum" requirements mange to run this game at least on tweaked high even on 720p or even 900p... If not, must be one horrible port...
