    https://youtu.be/EFyhkk07RUc Umm. Must be the missing dlc from Moto Racer 4 season pass. Exact same tracks & UI + bathtubs.. that can't drift. It's called ATV DRIFT! On the upside performance is good and with further tweaks could still be fun. Nothing else to play and never played Moto Racer 4? Go for it. Otherwise I would suggest waiting for the bundle/giveaway. Nothing new here for anyone who did play it.

    Graphics are decent and it is a really fun game. It reminds me of an old original xbox game that had a couple of Godsmack songs on it and this really takes me back. The physics feel good and its just a blast. Recomended.

    This is a great game that i got on sale recently and don't regret it one bit. The people with negative reviews on this game must have been using a keyboard as the controls for this game work perfect with an xbox one controller. Great graphics, great sounds and selection of music, tight controls, nice physics- game has an arcade feel to it but i like this and great selection of tracks and racers. There's single player and split screen for races as well as online for up to ten people which i…

    I grew up playing ATV Offroad Fury on PS2 and I got this game to scratch that itch. Even without comparing the two, this game fails by a long shot. The gameplay is very arcade like, the physics are not very realistic, and controlling the ATV in the air looks not only bad but just plain wrong. This game wouldn't be too bad if it just focused strictly on ATVs and racing like most games of the like. But instead it's a mixture of racing, a timing mini game, and points. The tracks are narrow and…

    Only buy this if you have a controller! There is no keyboard support to speak of. The game may be fine - it's most likely a copy of Moto Racer 4, they have the same ridiculous keyboard layout - but I never got to try it because I'm not going to sprain my fingers trying to reach the keys. (Speed up/forward is Z, Brake/backwards is S, Wheelie is LEFT SHIFT. On my keyboard, Z is next to T, German layout switches the Y and Z keys.) You can't reconfigure the keys, you can't easily change the…

    https://youtu.be/A6915maDneI Much of the experienced offered in this racing package is flavorless and flat. Systems work but uninspired track design and limited AI offers a bland time.

    ATV Drift & Tricks Positives: + some cool tracks + acceptable graphics + the season is short Negatives: - bad handling, feels like sliding on ice - horrible key mapping - when you're in the air you use the same controls as acc and brake on the ground, wtf? - physics is bad - the last season is way to hard because of all the problems above - really frustrating to play, I gave up to get on top in "the last resort" If you like this kind of games, play the newer Offroad Racing - Buggy x ATV x…

    I don't usually post reviews, but for this one I will make an exception. I wanted to play something that would remind me of Motorstorm on PC (at least visually). Sort of. I did my research diligently and found all the games of this company. As many others point out, this game is basically Moto Racer 4 with slightly different UI and different vehicles. I checked all three variants available (Moto Racer 4, this one and another newer game - including all vehicles so far + BUGGIES). I read all…

    ATV Drift & Tricks is a console ported 3D third person perspective ATV racing game where you race an ATV around a track. There's hot laps, campaign mode or a selection of single races. The technical execution is mostly fine, with 4K support and decent visuals, and a welcome array of visual tweaks. The deal breaker is that the controls are locked and can't be changed, and the keyboard config is a hamfisted mess. "Z" is accelerate, but steering is with A-D, and decelerate S. I'm not sure…

    Finally, a nice ATV game that isn't part of the usual series. I just want to have fun and this game seems to understand that. Good stuff!

    This game is trash. Lags on a decent computer and the menu was bad especially with spelling mistakes in loading screens. One of the worst racing games ever

    I took this game and my patience as far as I can go in this It feels like you are controlling a hovercraft and everytime you land you will have to press A to get boost if you do buy it you will certainly need a controller.

    Racing games isn't my usually cup of tea but this one catch my eye and turned out it is fun little game to jump for a quick burst here and there and relax a little. No story you have to follow or anything like that so you can jump after couple months and right away know what to do :) Good looking and quite enjoyable.

    I originally bounced off this game, but tried again and am having a blast. I rebound the controller controls through steam interface (I'm disabled so i almost always buy games on steam if i am playing with controller). The turbo/nitro boost system is timing based which i originally found annoying, but after rebinding the controls it makes it a lot of fun. you get boost from doing tricks and other activities. For people having issues, i'd recommend learning the nitro/boost system. That helps a…

    ATV Drift & Tricks is an arcade-oriented off-road racing game that focuses entirely on the raw, playful energy of all-terrain vehicles rather than simulation accuracy or broad vehicle variety. Developed by Artefacts Studio and published by Microids, the game commits fully to quad-bike racing, framing its identity around drifting through loose terrain, launching off ramps, and chaining tricks for style as much as speed. From the outset, it presents itself as a lighthearted, action-driven…

    Even though the pinky on my left hand died cause of weird controls, I had fun time. Game is not that hard, and you can fly through it in a few hours. Physics are weird, so be aware.. I didn't mind them at first, but in the later stages, when AI gets boosted by rubber-banding, it gets frustrating at times. Overall, I recommend it.

    Played it with controller, and while it isn't exactly a racing game I'll think of in the future - it feels like it holds up alright. As long as you're not looking for anything exciting I guess. It's kind've chill.

    worst ATV and also a bad arcade racer, the game maybe look ok and track design is good enough but the driving physics are not fun at all they drive on ice almost all the time and also one of the worst drift physics i experienced so far in a racing game.

    First off, this game re-uses a lot of assets from the studios previous games. The tracks are from a game called Moto Racer 4 and character models can be seen in stuff like Offroad Racing - Buggy x ATV x Moto. Ive never played their games, but people should be aware of this fact. Second, unless you have a controller to use here you should not bother. Key mapping is atrocious. Mouse isnt even represented. Now unto the game. From my point of view the game looks nice. While graphically simple…
