New MotoGP title in development

Monumental Games in charge of Xbox 360 and PS3 versions.

Capcom today announced that Monumental Games is hard at work on a new MotoGP title for Xbox 360 and PS3.

The upcoming game promises to take the series in a totally new direction, rewarding players for more than simply crossing the finishing line first.

Monumental Games boss Rik Alexander commented: "We’re working very closely with Capcom to take the MotoGP franchise to new heights. No-one would question the experience of our team - what’s amazing is the sheer energy which they’re bringing to the project. Like Capcom, they want this to surpass everything that’s come before, and so far they’re very much on track."

The Monumental Games development team includes ex-members of Climax Studios, the development house responsible for some of the most well received MotoGP titles.

Further details on this new MotoGP title will be revealed shortly.
