BANDAI NAMCO ENTERTAINMENT AMERICA’S RIDE
RE-SCHEDULED TO JUNE 23RD

Milestone s.r.l., and BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America Inc. will be moving the release of RIDE for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 (digital only), PlayStation 3 (digital only) and STEAM to Tuesday, June 23rd.

From the grease of the garage to the sight of burning rubber on the racetrack, RIDE offers motorcycle enthusiasts and gamers alike a complete racing experience as players take on four different categories of racing – more than 100 Superbikes, Supersports, Naked, and Historical bikes. The title offers extensive vehicle and rider customization, presenting gamers with a vast array of options to keep gameplay fresh and exhilarating through a huge selection of circuits that range from city, country, and historic tracks from the world of motorcycling.

North America (US) gets shafted on every release they have. Last years MotoGP released in EU about 6 months earlier than the US release. I will do the same with this as MotoGP, I will either buy the PSN digi copy off my UK account or simply import the disc from a UK store.

In addition, MotoGP 15 is supposed to be out in June, I would be stunned if the US release doesn't get bumped till at least September or October.

I hope the delay is used to polish this game more. I recently watched a UK bloke do a hands on impression video and the level of bike customization was on par with Forza which made me very excited! I still don't understand why Forza won't include motorcycles in their games.
