While anyone who is a fan of Ducati will likely lap this up, releasing Ducati 90th Anniversary: The Official Videogame as a standalone game instead of an expansion to Ride for existing players seems strange, particularly as the focus on a single manufacturer is similar to Forza Motorsport 6's Porsche and NASCAR Expansions.
It's a busy year for Milestone. They started off this year with Sebastien Loeb Rally EVO, which was soon followed by MXGP 2. MotoGP 16: Valentino Rossi will also be arriving soon after Ducati 90th Anniversary: The Official Game on June 14th.
