New game in Trials series features addictive gameplay and nice physical model. It suffers from outdated graphics, long loading times and limited customization options. However, fans should like it anyway. Just don't play a Nintendo Switch port - it is bad.

The physics are still phenomenal, and the series has retained its addictive quality, but it can occasionally feel like a game looking for answers to questions that didn't necessarily exist to begin with.

An extraordinarily solid mix of racing, platforming, and puzzling your way through stunning and devilish obstacle courses, only let down by the fluff surrounding the core experience.

Trials Rising is another hit for RedLynx and Ubisoft: fun, stimulating, extremely solid and almost infinite.

Trials Rising dishes out the tricks we've come to expect from the series. Developer RedLynx steps up their level design and delivers more content than ever, but overly-familiar mechanics and unseemly microtransactions make it hard to get too excited about the game. If you're hungry for new Trials action, this game delivers, but don't expect it to rise to the occasion if you're already weary of the formula.

Trials Rising is the latest game in the Trials series, a name associated with very high and demanding difficulty levels. This chapter brings to the Nintendo Switch a game that is both very fun but also affected by technical flaws. While the experience is mostly positive, it's important that the flaws get corrected through updates, as that would significantly improve the experience.

A marvellously accomplished realisation of RedLynx's deranged vision for the series, which somehow manages to be both the most accessible and most unforgiving Trials game to date.Ben Maxwell

Trials' gameplay is as flawless as ever, but some bad design decisions cripple a great game.

Trials Rising is a fun game. There will be who plays it for a while just to see the different ways you can crash or to see it's wacky tracks. And there will be who wants to master it's controls and become an expert in the game. This is the game's greatest accomplishment, that it can be fun for different type of players and everyone will have a unique experience with it. Although, it will become kind of repetitive pretty fast.

There's a certain sneering satisfaction to defeating everything the game throws at you on a particular track.

Rising is consistently expanding its series strengths and adding motivating innovations. The best and most beginner-friendly trials so far.

Trials Rising is pure, unadulterated, arcade fun at its finest. The mechanics are simple, and indeed anyone can play. But mastering the techniques to get ever faster times can take countless hours. The extreme levels will really test players' resolve, but the payoff of finally finishing the Everest level, for instance, is worth the obstacle-filled journey. There's so much content packed into Trials Rising, it's hard to believe the game is launching at $24.99.

Trials Rising sticks to its roots by offering and fun and challenging trip around the world, putting aside the flashy neon look of its previous entry. Its various locations and constant humour will as usual keeps players hooked up for hours, thanks to a solid content and a heavy soundtrack that might have benefit from more diversity.

Trials Rising isn't going to set the world on fire, but it achieves what it sets out to do with aplomb. It's a simple concept, executed with flair, and if that's not worth applauding then what is?

Trials Rising does not innovate, it limits itself to perfecting a widely tested formula, improving, albeit marginally, almost all aspects from both a qualitative and a quantitative point of view.

Trials Rising isn't trying to be realistic, it's trying to be simple fun, and at that it excels. It looks good, it will make you laugh, and most importantly, it's entertaining.
