Moza Teases Official MotoGP Simulator Hardware Ahead of Gamescom 2026
Quick summary· AI-generated
Moza has been collaborating with MotoGP for over a year and is finally showing concrete hardware: a motorcycle-style handlebar controller with visible throttle rotation, hand brake lever, and illuminated buttons for use with Milestone's MotoGP games. The article speculates on whether the final product will be a standalone controller or a complete motorcycle simulation platform with chassis movement and force feedback, but Moza has not yet revealed those details. The full announcement is expected at Gamescom 2026 in Cologne (Aug 26–30).
Excerpt from OC Racing
Moza Racing is getting ready to reveal its first official MotoGP simulation hardware, with the company teasing a new motorcycle controller ahead of Gamescom 2026. The full reveal is expected during the event in Cologne, which runs from August 26 through August 30.
This has actually been in the works for a while. Moza first announced its collaboration with MotoGP at Gamescom 2025, but at the time, there was very little indication of what the partnership would actually produce. One year later, we finally have our first proper look.

What Has Moza Shown So Far?
The latest teaser shows a rider using the new hardware with one of Milestone’s MotoGP games. Rather than a traditional steering wheel or gamepad, the setup appears to use a motorcycle-style handlebar controller mounted onto a much larger bike-shaped structure.
Some of the controls are already visible. The rider can twist the right grip to control the throttle and use what appears to be a conventional hand brake lever. There are also several illuminated buttons positioned around the handlebars, suggesting Moza is trying to recreate much more of the functionality you would expect from a modern racing motorcycle.
What we have not seen yet is exactly how the rest of the system works. Moza has shown the rider sitting on the motorcycle-style frame, but it has not demonstrated whether the platform itself leans, moves, or provides any kind of force feedback through the chassis.
What Could the Final Product Include?
The biggest question is whether Moza is developing a relatively simple handlebar controller or a complete motorcycle simulation platform. The teaser certainly makes the second possibility look realistic, but until the full announcement arrives, we do not know how much of the bike-shaped structure will actually be part of the consumer product.
A dedicated handlebar system alone would already be interesting. Motorcycle games have traditionally relied on controllers because there are very few proper simulation peripherals available. Having physical throttle rotation, brake controls, buttons, and potentially some form of steering resistance could give games like MotoGP a completely different feeling.
If Moza takes things further, there are plenty of other possibilities. A movable chassis could simulate leaning, while force…
