Ducati World Championship is an ancient game from 2006. It's a whopping 18 years old at the time of this review. The game lacks support for any modern gaming display resolutions (or widescreen monitors), hasn't been modernised or updated to run smoothly on modern gaming PCs. Despite this lack of modernisation, it carries a pretty high price tag for such an ancient game. This seems to have been put on Steam as a nostalgia gouge, or just a cash grab to try profit from abandonware.
The game is broken under Windows 10/11, but you can make it run and avoid the "AVIStreamGetFrameOpen failed!" error by running the game in Windows XP compatibility mode... a hoop, through which, gamers should not be expected to jump. If a game developer wants to keep selling their game on Steam, they must keep maintaining their game on Steam. The developers failure to do this is unacceptable.
On the upside, the game does feature customisable controls and resolution, so at least some of the basic, minimum requirements have been met. Unfortunately there's a number of other technical defects and shortcomings which contribute to the game being difficult to recommend to gamers.
The game only displays in 4:3 pillarboxed aspect ratio, due to the age of the game, it predates the 16:9 widescreen gaming standard established back in 2006. It's possible they're marketing this towards people using an old CRT they found in a dumpster, or this game is being specifically marketed towards people gaming on PC's from 1995... either way, this isn't really acceptable in the modern era of PC gaming. It's obviously not going to look right on a modern 16:9 gaming display.
The game is incredibly dated, buggy, and unfun to play. There may be some argument that a remaster is in order, but that seems unlikely, and either way, this is not a remaster. It's abandonware.
These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game.
The poor quality of this game is reflected by how many people spent time with it. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was only 13 players. This is a remarkably low number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam and well over 100,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in this low quality game is to be expected.
So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 100,000+ games on Steam?
Ducati World Championship is relatively expensive for an abandonware nostalgia gouge, at $4 USD, and it's not worth it. The game is just too old, hasn't been modernised. And as the old saying goes, you can't go home again. Even when it was new, this was never a triple-A game. This is the kind of game that went almost directly from the warehouse into the cheap bargain bins at the front of the shop. Now, on Steam, without any modernisation? This is impossible to recommend.
I've always loved this game, so glad it's finally working on Steam. My son figured out some settings to get it to work. I played this for hours in the past, still an adrenaline pumpl. Allows me to play motorcycle racing with the sound of a Ducati, which is a dream bike to me.
What we have here is a pretty cute clone of Motor Racer with licensed Ducati motorcycles and music by Lacuna Coil (ten tracks total). The original Motor Racer mechanics is still fine, Lacuna Coil adds quite a lot to the atmosphere (not really a fan of this kind of music, but it feels totally great in things like AMVs and video games), there are some game modes to choose from (single race, career, championship and even multiplayer)... In other words, like I've said, it's a pretty cute Motor Racer clone. The problem is – Motor Racer was released in 1997, while this one? This one came out in 2006.
That's right, folks, you've read it right. What we have here is a clone of 1997 game... that came out in 2006. La-da-da-da-dah~ It's the mo*****ckin' D-O-double-G~ ♫ I mean, seriously. When you start Ducati World Championship for the first time, you begin to feel like you've just being trolled. The game looks like Motor Racer, the game feels like Motor Racer... and yet, it claims to be from 2006.
I don't know who screwed up the timeline this time. Barry Allen, Marty McFly, or Steven Moffat. But this? This is just wrong. I mean, sure, everybody loves good ol' Motor Racer. But in 2006 we've already got games like MotoGP '06, MotorStorm, Crusty Demons, Jacked and the others. Having something like Ducati World Championship? Let's just say it was an instant no. Harley-Davidson did better in 2006. Kawasaki did better in 2006. Everybody did better in 2006. Ten years prior, Ducati's game sure had a chance to become a thing. When compared with the first Moto Racer? Ducati World Championship feels totally competitive. But in the middle of 2000s, while being compared with the real deal? It's close to impossible to take this title seriously.
The game was released 9/6/2006. Given the age and the fact that widescreen wasn't a thing at that time the Steam release has a limited widescreen support up to 1776x1000 16:9. It doesn't look too bad you just have a black frame around your game screen at 1080p.
DWC is an arcade racer and by no means a racing sim. I bought it for €1.24 because I'm a Ducati fan. Using ReShade 3.0.7 improves the image quality noticeably. I play it on Win10_64 compatibility set to WinXP_SP3.
There's not much to say about gameplay it will keep you entertained for a while. You can use kb/m or a controller - please use a controller.
I don't understand why this game has so much bad reviews from people who didn't get the game to run. As I said the procedure to get DWC working is straightforward.

I'll give it a 6/10 and you should only buy it when DWC is on sale.
If you are a fan of Ducati and or music buy Lacuna Coil by this when it is on sale.
The bikes look nice enough and the tracks are interesting. It just starts to feel the same after a few races.
I barely have a bike for 2 races before I'm onto the next bike, so I don't form any attachment. The bikes themselves don't have any upgrades.
I finished the Class C championship before writing this review.
TIP: You will need to run the exe in compatability mode on most modern PCs
If you ride or just like motorcycle games I think this is a must have title for the price.
It is dated...but if you can get over that is is a great game. Lots of modes to play. There is a noticable difference between bikes. The tracks are ok and you can run them forward or reverse. The handleing is good enough to make things fun and really try pushing your lap times.
If your one of those people who like modern arcade games (aka crap) where you hit every possible thing as you make it down the track, this game is not for you. If your more of a sim racer and can deal with a dated game....go for it.
Its no SBK or motoGP, but there is some fun to be had here. Cant wait for "Ride" to come out.
I saw this game had mixed reviews, and the recent ones were good. I bought this game as it was on sale to find out if it was any good, but unfortunately it would not even load. It came up with an error message, I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it again to see if that would fix it but it didn't. I had to keep opening the game, for it to close its self again, so I could reach five minutes of playing it so I could write this review. This game is not even worth the 74p I paid for it unless this problem is resolved.
10/10
not online multiplayer, hardest racing game i've ever played, worth every penny i paid for it
i paid literally a penny for it so there's that
Well the other reviews were spot on. If you pay a few quid or less than a dollar or whatever then it is to much. From bad graphics engine to poor handling of bikes that have some daft camera angles it is rubbish. I played a very short time, time wasted really, I then removed it from my PC.
Would I recommend this? Not at all, it isn't even arcade feeling really, had better graphics on my Vic20! (Well it felt like it).
If you want to play a motorbike game then the SBK series is the way to go or the MotoGP series, but stay clear of this, it is a waste of HD space.
This game is actually the best game ever, you have a british coach, and i mean you get to jam to the best game sound track of all time stictly better than anything out there. i mean would by for full price . while your at it buy it for all your friends so they can enjoy it. it even has local multiplayer so i mean cant beat that.
This game is not nearly as bad as everyone says. The handling takes some getting used to, the commentary is best when it's turned off and the game is best played with a 360-pad along with the knowledge that the P-key brings up the in-game menu which you can use to exit or restart races.
The game has several modes, including a career mode, championship and a challenge mode. The championship is a pre-determined series of increasingly difficult races, the challenge mode tasks you with performing various timed trials such as wheelies. The most interesting mode however is the career mode, which has you competing in a variety of race types while working your way through several license classes.
You get to create your own racer for this mode and you earn new bikes by completing races. These new bikes allow you to enter even more races and once you've completed all of them, you move into the next class - the goal being to eventually win The Race Queen - the girl from the intro.
The races can be as simple getting to first place within two laps, to a multi-stage endurance race where your performance carry over between stages, meaning your bike or even your character can become beat up over time. You can enter the pit stop to allow either your character or your bike to recover. You also gain nitro by racing well. Staying on the road gives you a slow but steady build of nitro that you can use when you need a boost, driving outside the road will drain the meter quickly, and performing stunts such as wheelies will make it rise dramatically.
The visuals for this game are quite old-fashioned but they did employ the RenderWare engine for the game and it does a good job of maintaining a smooth frame-rate with no pop-ups to be seen anywhere. The stages are pretty varied too, with plenty of locales like arenas, deserts, tropical, mountain- and country-side tracks - and in some of them you can literally see for miles into the background.
If you like classic arcade racers (especially those made by Sega and Namco) and don't mind old-school graphics, taking chances with low budget titles and dealing with an initially harsh learning curve - then this game might be for you.
This game may be old with quite outdated graphics, but I have found it a nice distraction when playing with an Xbox 360 Controller. You will unlock new bikes and drivers via career mode, and all the other modes are interesting in their own ways. Yes, the controls are a little touchy, and a few of the bike setup options seem to make very little difference. The graphics are not pretty or up to date. But with that said, I've been having great fun with it. In career mode, you have driver health and motorcycle damage to keep in check. Almost every race so far in C Class has unlocked either a new bike or a new driver for Championship mode. While I haven't finished the game yet, I have definitely had great fun with what I have played. I usually play very modern driving games like Gran Turismo 6, GRID 2, MX vs. ATV, Motorstorm, etc. Despite it's very visual age, this game is still fun if you like to race. It is a bit strange and is sponsored by a specific motorcycle company. But the strangeness makes it charming and the Ducati sponsorship means great bikes to ride and unlock.
Highly recommended for fans of motorcycle racing games, especially if you don't mind slighty better than PS1 graphics and controls. I think it's great, but your experience may vary.
Absolute crap. Not even worth the 5 bucks.
Naw, better to just save up for a better racing game than this junk.
Bahahaha! This game is definately worth 50 cents. No way to exit a race. You use Q to go forward, but the arrow keys to turn. The soundtrack is some orchestral chick rock band. I think their Janitors decided to make a game, and then decided they had better things to do and outsourced this game's development to a couple 8 year olds in somalia, who were using a Pen and paper flipbook made of hippo toenails to program. I've lost more money in my couch than this game cost, and I still would rather have just thrown 50 cents into a river.
Ducatti World Championship is frankly an embarrassment to everyone involved, Lol the makers now make iOS and Facebook games.
I would put this game up there with Bad Rats as it as a great gift to give to your friends that you dont really like but feel obligated to get a gift....or if you just want to be a massive troll and give someone a terrible game they can't get out of their library.
Miss advertised, looks nothing like trailer, runs slow, very laggy, needs XP compatibility set to the ducatti.exe, terribly optimized. Utter garbage and a blatant lie from the pictures and videos.
Falsely advertised.
DO NOT BUY.
My System Specs:
- Power Supply: Corsair TX 850w PSU
- CPU: AMD Piledriver FX-8 8350 4.00GHz @ 4.60GHz (Overclocked) Eight Core CPU
- Motherboard: Asus Crosshair V Formula Z 990FX (Socket AM3+) DDR3 Motherboard
- Cooler: Antec 920 Kuhler CPU Cooler
- RAM: TeamGroup Elite 16GB (2x8GB) 1600MHz C11 DDR3 Dual Channel Kit
- Hard Drive: Intel Core 330 Series 120GB SSD & Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 2TB SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache HDD
- Graphics Card: 2 x ATI Radeon HD 7970 3072MB Graphics Card (Crossfire)
And this game still runs like a dog with one leg at around 6 FPS.
Seems to blend between frames with a nice fade effect.
I don't recommend this game. Graphics and control suck. Not fun. Hard to configure controller. Even for $1.24 it wasn't worth it.
I've never been able to get this to run. I feel robbed. The worst part is I work in IT....what does it take to get this to work?
I was excited to find a pc game that ran on legacy hardware and had single pc splitscreen, but after playing motocross madness and road rash, I felt this game came short in a lot of areas. I remember the controls playing like super hang on and everything else about it just wasn't worth the 5 dollar price tag. If you are looking for some weekend fun you can grab this for $1 or $.50 on the christmas deal, but buy it regular price and you will be disappointed.
As a goof don't even buy this game. I paid $1.24 for this turd and feel ripped off.
The physics are horrible. I understand that it is difficult to make a realistic motorcycle game, but come on! There is not one single thing good about this game.
Not worth it if it was free
This game is terrible and hard to play. There are seemingly impossible tracks that you MUST pass to continue, and no matter how many times I try and perfect my path to the end, it's still not possible. No wonder this game has a score in the 30s.
