SoftpediaAndrei DumitrescuJun 20238/10Tour de France 2023 captures the atmosphere of real-world cycling, which is crucial for this kind of sports simulation. It feels good to control some of the best riders of the moment, think about the strategy that best suits them, and then try to use limited energy resources at just the right time to secure a prestigious win. The game allows players to create some impressive narrative around their own created cyclist, taking them from humble beginnings to prestigious victories. But Tour de France 2023 is targeted squarely at fans of the sport and other gamers might struggle to fully engage with its mechanics and presentation.
Digitally DownloadedMatt SainsburyJul 20233.5/5 starsWith all that said, this is an incredibly niche sport. It’s impressive that as much effort is put into doing it justice as Cyanide puts into the Tour de France. The developers get better at it, year after year, and that’s an encouraging sign too. I hope they’re profitable enough to continue with the series, because you can’t help but believe that they’re right on the cusp of this series hitting the A-tier of sporting properties.

Jump Dash RollPeter TaylorSep 20235/10Whilst Cyanide have created a faithful reproduction of the great race, what it brings to the table can hardly be differentiated from the previous versions. Niche as this title may be, I suspect only the absolute die-hards will be picking this one up.
