From Bilbao to Paris, never ease up in Tour de France 2023
The official game of the Tour de France is back. In Tour de France 2023, players get on their bikes to race in a group of major races in the cycling calendar – the Tour de France, Liège-Bastogne-Liège, Flèche Wallonne, Paris-Nice, Critérium du Dauphiné, Paris-Tours, Paris-Roubaix – and experience the excitement of each event. During the game, players become a rider for one of the 27 World Tour and Pro Tour teams in different game modes.

Explore all the new features in Tour de France 2023:

  • As well as the “Race of the Moment”, which was introduced in the previous edition, a new challenge has been added: the “Downhill of the Moment“. This new game mode takes place solely on downhill stretches and so requires unique strategies. Players can then compare their ranking with other competitors from all over the world.
  • More realistic rating system: the introduction of Agility and Medium Mountain ratings can lead to unexpected incidents, such as falls within the peloton, and also has an effect on what path the riders take.
  • More strategic gameplay: players can devise different strategies depending on their team members and their statistics.
  • Updated rider equipment, now rated based on quality.
  • Distinctive bibs added: “Super Combative” and “Best Team” for a greater challenge.
  • Various technical improvements: including collisions, AI behaviour and the path riders take in downhill stretches.
