Bet you didn’t think you’d be reading an article about motorcycle sim RIDE 4 today, did you? We didn’t expect to be writing one either, to be brutally honest with you. Still, that hasn’t stopped this footage of the racer from going viral on Reddit and various other social media platforms. And it’s not hard to see why: it looks mind bogglingly good. Like, photorealistic.

There are a few caveats, however, as you’d expect: the overcast lighting and rain slicked streets are adding to the illusion. Moreover, from what we understand this is actually replay footage: you don’t get all of that uber-realistic head-bobbing during gameplay, for obvious reasons. Nevertheless, this clip has racked up over 600,000 views in less than a week – the team at Milestone will be chuffed.
