Milestone introduces NINE Season 2009, one of a kind game mode featuring a docu-styled gameplay

The legendary riders, the best tracks, the evocative moments, the most realistic gameplay. All in one feature: The MotoGP™22 NINE Season 2009 is an original docu-styled gameplay experience that will guide players through a whirlwind of memories. Race in the boots of Rossi, Pedrosa, Lorenzo, Stoner and many others, to be the protagonist of some iconic moments in one of the best season ever in the MotoGP™ history.

NINE Season 2009 blends together gameplay and a real footage documentary created by Mark Neale, well known for his works on the documentaries Faster, Faster & Faster (starring Ewan McGregor), Fastest and Hitting The Apex, co-produced with Academy Awards winner Brad Pitt.

Mark Neale: “NINE took shape much like the 2009 MotoGP season itself. At first, nobody was sure how it would go, then it turned into something amazing. Making it was a great experience. I think playing it will be, too.”

Stakes are high and players will face all the 17 Grand Prix of the Season divided in chapters and full filled of breath-taking challenges to complete. All the NINE Season 2009 content are also available in Grand Prix and Championship modes, allowing to play entire races and seasons as the iconic riders of the 2009 season.

  • Additional content unlockable with each challenge, such as helmets and special liveries used by the protagonists in home races.
