The Giro d’Italia has just come to an end, and the next major race is the Tour de France 2019, with the video game adaptation due for release June 27 on Xbox One and PlayStation 4. To keep cycling fans happy until then, Bigben and Cyanide are pleased to present what’s new in the 2019 version of the official game, whose cover will feature BORA-hansgrohe team cyclist and three-time world champion, Peter Sagan.

Two new game modes have been added to the 2019 version:

Online multiplayer mode: for the first time, you can pit yourself against other cyclists over short races in an online multiplayer mode for up to four players simultaneously. For even more of an adrenalin rush, the challenges are back this year, so you can experience the thrills of descents and the intensity of sprints! It’s your chance to achieve the best times and climb your way to the top of the online rankings.

If your cyclist’s results are good enough at the end of the season, he may be selected to represent his country in the World Championship to try and win the legendary rainbow jersey!

In addition to the Tour de France, players can compete in four other official races in Tour de France 2019. The legendary Tour of Flanders makes its debut alongside other renowned races: Paris-Roubaix, Paris-Nice and the Critérium du Dauphiné.
