Tour De France 2021 for PlayStation 5

There's something very admirable about how faithful Cyanide and Nacon's Tour de France 2021 is to the rigors of long-distance road cycling. This is, after all, a sport built on endurance and strategy rather than intense bursts of action and adrenaline. This is a game that really strives to simulate what it means to go the distance in the world's greatest cycle race with absolute fidelity. Mastering a stage is a matter of balancing factors like managing your energy, communicating with teammates and ducking into the slipstream of a rider in front of you to gain an edge. Meanwhile, the beautiful French countryside will stream past you, offering an almost zen-like experience. A Pro-Leader mode has you create a character and level up various characteristics such as sprinting and climbing, while Pro Team gives you more zoomed-out control of an entire team. It's all kitted up with official brands and faithfully recreated stages from the 2021 route, as well as other tours including Open Tour, Paris-Nice and the Breizh along with a few standalone races. You can even create your own!
