Tour de France 2025

Tour de France 2025 puts you right in the saddle of one of the world’s toughest endurance races. Developed by Cyanide Studio and published by Nacon, this officially licensed cycling sim brings the full 2025 Tour experience to your screen. Whether you’re chasing yellow jerseys or just trying to stay in the pack, this game doesn’t hold your hand. It’s fast, tactical, and—let’s be real—surprisingly intense for a game about pedaling.

What’s New This Year?

This isn’t just a fresh coat of paint. Tour de France 2025 introduces several new features that shake things up. If you’ve played past titles like Pro Cycling Manager or earlier Tour de France entries, you’ll feel the difference almost immediately.

• Unreal Engine 5 – Finally. Better lighting, smoother animation, and more detailed environments. Mountains actually look majestic now.
• Private Multiplayer Matches – Set up your own custom races. Choose the route, the stage type, the whole setup. Great for friendly rivalries or heated showdowns.
• New Races – Fleche Wallonne and Circuit Grand Est are now in the lineup. Variety is good—legs still hurt.
• Energy Sources – Choose between Energel and Turbogel mid-race. One helps you last longer, the other gives you a quick burst. It’s like choosing between coffee and energy drinks at mile 120.

Core Gameplay

Still rooted in sim-style realism, Tour de France 2025 lets you play as a lone rider (Pro Leader mode) or take control of an entire team (Pro Team mode). The official license means real teams, real riders, real pain. Tactical decisions—when to draft, when to sprint, when to just hang back—matter more than ever. Lesson learned: don’t waste Turbogel too early.

Game Modes

• Singleplayer – Progress through the stages solo, managing your energy, your tactics, and your career.
• Multiplayer – Race against friends or strangers online. Includes split-screen mode for local play.
• Criterium Mode – Quick, tight races designed for fast matchups. Pair up and push hard.

Other Nice Touches

• New UI – Less clutter, more info. It finally feels modern.
• Smoother Peloton Navigation – No more accidental bumping into riders every few seconds.
• Accessibility Options – Good to see this. Not everyone pedals the same way.

Platforms

• PC (Windows)
• PlayStation 5
• Xbox Series X/S

Similar Games

• Descenders – More freestyle, less realism, but still all about the ride.
• Lonely Mountains: Downhill – Chill, solo rides with beautiful views. Great for winding down.
• Umamusume: Pretty Derby – If you’re into racing, but also want anime horses. No judgment.

Tour de France 2025 doesn’t reinvent the wheel—but it definitely tunes it up. Whether you’re in for the strategy or the scenery, there’s enough here to keep both casual fans and cycling nerds engaged. Just don’t forget to hydrate.
