MotoGP demo released

Why not take it for a spin?

A playable demo for MotoGP: Ultimate Racing Technology 3, THQ's new m0t0rb1k3 racer for PC and Xbox, is now available for download.

Weighing in at 145MB, it includes the Le Mans track for the Grand Prix class and a night-time Tokyo circuit for the Extreme Classes, playable not only in a choice of multiplayer modes but Quick Race and Time Trial solo modes too.

As previously reported, URT3 features something called "embedded gameplay" to let you switch seamlessly between online and offline play, and there are fully licensed riders, tracks and bikes from the real-life 2004 MotoGP season.

MotoGP: Ultimate Racing Technology 3 is due out on September 2.
