Pro Cycling Manager 2020

Pro Cycling Manager 2020 is another part of the well-known cycle of sports strategy games in which we play the role of a cycling team manager. The game was developed by the authors responsible for the preparation of the previous parts, Cyanide Studio. The publisher is Nacon.

The goal of the game is to lead a professional cycling team as its manager. It is worth noting that thanks to the licenses in Pro Cycling Manager 2020 we are dealing with teams and riders known from the real world. Over two hundred races in 21 locations have been put at our disposal.

The game consists, among other things, of organizing player trainings and recruiting talents. It is also necessary to sign contracts with advertisers and take care of the financial side of the business.
