MX vs. ATV Legends grinds the dirt roads to bring a new and fun racing experience – Review

gamepur.com:

MX vs. ATV has been a long-standing racing franchise, dedicated to the crazy, and sometimes dirty world of ATV and motocross racing. It’s been a bit of a long time since the release of a game in this series, as the last one, MX vs. ATV All Out, launched back in 2018. Four years later, we have a new entrant into the franchise: MX vs. ATV Legends.

This title looks to bring the world of MX vs. ATV into the current generation of consoles, but has it managed to pull off another flashy trick, or did it fall flat on the dirt? While it doesn’t reinvent the genre by any means necessary, it does instead offer a nice sequel to the series.

MX vs. ATV Legends follows the direction of previous MX vs. ATV games, as well as the general direction of other recent THQ Nordic racing games. MX vs. ATV Legends offers a full-fledged career mode that includes MX and supercross races, ATV, and UTV events. Players can go through months and months of new and different races, ranging from time trials to even stadium events. 

Additionally, MX vs. ATV Legends, much like last year’s Monster Jam Steel Titans 2, features an open-world environment. This takes place on a farm compound, owned by Emilio Rawlings, a former racer who becomes a coach-for-hire as he attempts to make money to retain his land. Rawlings is not just the only individual in your posse, as the team also includes the head mechanic and chief PR lead, who help maintain your vehicles and get you booked for new events. And much like in Steel Titans 2, players can also go on a treasure hunt for collectibles across the compound that can be added to your collection.

I should note that MX vs. ATV Legends also offers online races, outside of the single-player
