Those games didn’t just entertain, they sparked a lifelong love of BMX and extreme sports, a passion shared by nearly every developer on the team.​​“We grew up grinding rails in Tony Hawk’s, then trying to copy the moves at the local park,” laughs Carlos, gameplay programmer and amateur BMX rider. The team’s mission was clear from the start: bring that same mix of fun, freedom, and creativity to BMX, with controls that reward experimentation and a vibe that welcomes everyone.The design process turned personal stories into game mechanics. Lead producer David drew inspiration from neighborhood skateparks seen through childhood eyes, blending stylized art with authentic features that riders recognize and appreciate. Developers debated every trick, not just for realism, but for that feeling of triumph when landing something new: “We focused on the simple joy of small victories every rider knows, like landing a bunny hop or a first grind,” recalls David.Many on the team still ride BMX today, and sessions between work inspire new features. They met up on weekends to test animations and recreate their favorite park stunts. Mistakes became moments to laugh and learn. “Our community playtests felt like reliving our early days. The feedback from actual bikers pushed us to keep improving,” says David, lead producer.Legends BMX isn’t just made by coders, it’s made by riders, by gamers who learned about courage and confidence from both controllers and handlebars. The game aims to capture the thrill of landing a new trick and the joy of inviting friends along for the ride just like those beloved classics from childhood.As Legends BMX launches on Xbox, the developers hope players, whether longtime fans or curious newcomers, will feel that sense of nostalgia, friendship, and possibility with every jump and grind.
