01 / THE GUIDE
Official 2016 MXGP & MX2 License
The game is built on an official license for the 2016 FIM Motocross World Championship, providing the roster of riders and bikes that competed that year. This ensures that the in‑game lineup matches the real‑world participants of the season.
Only 18 tracks are listed as official content, meaning the game reproduces those specific circuits rather than every track used in the 2016 championships. Players race on these licensed venues with the authentic line‑up.
- Check the in‑game rider list against the 2016 season roster for verification.
- Compare the track names in the menu with the official 2016 circuit list.
