The game will be released for PC, Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 on February 25, 2021. You can see a trailer at the top of the article, and a trailer that gives more insight into the game itself on the right.
The company describes the game as a massive social playground, where you should be able to play freely through landscapes in tandem with friends and unknown players. 50 players will be in the same area at the same time, which consists of some of the largest national parks in the USA sewn together into one world.
A career mode is in place where every single sport where you work your way through a progression race. One should also be able to compete against each other in more intimate settings, or participate in larger competitions against several at the same time.
Riders Republic is being developed by Ubisoft Annecy – with several Ubisoft studios as assistants – who were behind the extreme sports game Steep in 2016. We did not leave the house to celebrate the game when it came out, and placed it in the middle of the tree in our review.
– Steep is a great game with a lot to do, but still never gives you any good reasons to continue playing. As a simple pastime, it’s fine, but nothing more. The mountains are beautiful, the tasks are many and varied and the game mechanics can sometimes be surprisingly complex. Unfortunately, that’s just not enough, we wrote at the time.
