Motocross: Chasing the Dream

About This Game

'Motocross: Chasing the dream' is a game being developed by a group of veteran MX Simulator content creators and players. This project was started out of curiosity and desire to facilitate change within the niche motocross game genre because a lot of the characteristics that give motocross its identity are nowhere to be seen during gameplay.

While MCTD is in an early access state, we plan on updating and expanding the game over time to achieve the best online racing with proper replica series, an in-depth career with a rich story, support for modding and user-created content, great media and race broadcasting tools, and so much more.
