For 2008, the rights to develop video games representing the MotoGP brand have been granted to a single publisher: Capcom. For the first time since MotoGP 4, the game includes the addition of playable 125cc and 250cc support classes. The Wii version of the game gives the player the option of using the Wii Remote as a handlebar, adding some lifelike control realism to the title.
