Ride 2 has been awarded a Guinness World Record title of its own: "most licensed bikes in a videogame", it revealed today. It’s been given the title for 190 licensed real-world bikes, with an estimated 40 bikes expected as DLC later.
Italian developer Milestone are pleased with the accolade: “We are really proud to be recognized for such an important award.

“The racing genre has often strived for realism and authenticity, so it’s great to see a motorcycle game delivering some serious options for two-wheel enthusiasts. Having just launched our Guinness World Records 2017 Gamer’s Edition, there’s every chance now that Ride2 could be haring into next year’s book…” added Stephen Daultrey – Editor of The Guinness World Record Gamers Edition.
