Monster Energy Supercross — The Official Videogame 3 Review

There is little elegance in the title Monster Energy Supercross — The Official Videogame 3. Yet, that doesn’t mean that the game itself cannot have some finesse despite the clumsy name.

An essential element that developer Milestone must address, though, is giving players a reason to upgrade from their earlier titles. It is a problem that every annual sports franchise must overcome: striking that careful balance of innovating and improving while not ruining what made the series popular in the first place.

The truth is that Monster Energy Supercross — The Official Videogame 3 doesn’t quite get that formula right. It plays everything far too safe, at the cost of being unable to stand out from its predecessors.
