Pro Cycling Manager 25

Pro Cycling Manager 25 puts you in charge of a professional cycling team, but it’s not just about pedaling harder. You’re managing every aspect – training, tactics, staff, and sponsors. The game is developed by Cyanide Studio and is the latest installment in the long-running series. This time, it’s built on Unreal Engine 5, and it shows. From rain-soaked cobblestones to glowing sunlit descents, the visuals finally feel alive. It’s not a racing game, though. It’s about thinking ahead, balancing a budget, and knowing when to push your star rider or pull them back. Tour de France 2025 season included? Yep, you’re covered.

Gameplay: Strategy Over Speed

This isn’t about twitch reflexes. Pro Cycling Manager 25 challenges your brain more than your thumbs. You’ll manage everything: the roster, staff, training, race day tactics, even travel and recovery. The competition is fierce. Your team’s morale can swing in a single race. Miss a sponsor goal? That’s a hit to your budget. Overtrain your riders? They’ll burn out right before the Tour.
