About this deal

MANAGE YOUR CAREER AND MAKE IT TO THE TOP OF THE LADDER – Create and shape your own rider through evolutive, progression-based gear and define every aspect of your avatar. Whether you want to be the best snowboarder alive or the fastest thing on two wheels, everything is possible.

Go wild on the heights of iconic US national parks like Yosemite, Zion, Mammoth Mountain, and Bryce Canyon. JUMP INTO A MASS SOCIAL PLAYGROUND – Live out the rider's fantasy as you roam free in a huge, vibrant open world, always buzzing with other players around you. Immerse yourself in iconic American national parks including Bryce Canyon, Yosemite Valley, Mammoth Mountain... all mashed up for you to shred! That is certainly a lot — and the crazy thing is they are all fun to ride. Riders Republic is in no way a simulator. It is an arcade game that brings the best of the early 2000s extreme sports games and put them all into a huge natural playground. And once you have that in mind and embrace the absurdity of it all, you are in for a great time. There are many licensed rides to choose from With the Skate Edition, try and become the next skate legend of the Republic. The Skate Edition includes the base game and the Skate add-on.* The map is filled with secrets. For instance, there are five hundred balloons spread randomly across the regions that reward you with in-game currency, as well as eleven relics that reward you with funkie gear. There are also 45 landmarks to find and 23 stunts, which are basically challenges for each of the sports for you to complete.Ride in style with the Ultimate Edition of RIDERS REPUBLIC™, which includes the entire game as well as the following digital content**: Compete in all-out mass races with over 50 players – grind or collide and fight your way to the finish line! At any point, you can instantly switch to a first-person mode with a button press. While you’ll likely opt to play the majority of the Riders Republic in third-person, first-person is a fun novelty. Bunny-hopping off a cliff on a BMX and riding down the almost steer incline in first-person is extremely exhilarating and might just knot your stomach. If you look at the environments too closely, though, you will notice that this is not the prettiest world ever. But when you are riding downhill as fast as the wind, you will not notice those details at all — instead, you will be blown away by how vast the world you are riding in is. PLAY WITH OR AGAINST YOUR FRIENDS IN INSANE MULTIPLAYER MODES – Squad up with your friends and compete in a wide range of multiplayer modes: feel the rush of downhill races, dominate maps in team vs team competitions, or give it your best shot in epic mass PvP races.

Many events take advantage of those seamlessly transitions aswell. There are multisport races that puts you on a racing ski and after a big jump you are suddenly flying through the mountains with your wingsuit.Customize your character to show off your style, including a new set of outfits and boards to represent skate culture. Although Riders Republic does so much right when it comes to the sense of progression, I do have to say that its approach to seasonal content was a bit of a let down. Even though I am always being rewarded something, some times I am left with the impression that I am not being rewarded enough. It's annoying, too, especially at first when the overlong tutorial takes hold and refuses to let go for the best part of an hour. This is one of those extreme sports games that overlays its action with grating voice overs, the dialogue more likely to give you a nosebleed than any of the highest altitudes you're invited to scale. Given how pervasive that voiceover can be in the first hour, I wouldn't be surprised if it proved an endurance test too far for most players. Persevere, though, and it's then often remarkable how eager Riders Republic is to get out of the way. There's a decent amount of community tools in Riders Republic, and where that community takes this game next is going to be fascinating. To play this game on PS5, your system may need to be updated to the latest system software. Although this game is playable on PS5, some features available on PS4 may be absent. See PlayStation.com/bc for more details. All the woo-hooing and cringe-inducing dialogue can be a little off-putting at first, but once you get past that and embrace the absurdity of it all, you get to enjoy one of the best arcade games available on Xbox today.

Riders Republic’s map is composed of seven regions: Mammoth Mountain, Yosemite Valley, Grand Teton, Sequoia, Bryce Canyon, Zion and Canyonlands. As soon as you complete the game’s introduction you are free to go wherever you want at any time. Ubisoft builds upon the framework of Steep with this enjoyably eccentric open world extreme sports adventure. Some of that brilliance might be familiar from Steep, 2016's equally open-ended extreme sports outing upon which so much of Riders Republic is built. This is neither as focussed - there's a broadening out of disciplines to include bikes as well as terrain types that go beyond mere snow here - nor quite so strange, with no spoken word interjections from the mountains themselves (at least none that I've come across in over a dozen hours or so of play - this is a vast, vast game after all). It is deeply, gloriously silly, though, a playground told with an exuberance that's infectious as you pedal down perilous courses in matching giraffe outfits. Nonetheless, Steep was a great foundation for what could become a breath of fresh air for fans of winter sports games. But Ubisoft Annecy went the extra mile and released Riders Republic — a game that maintained Steep’s open world aspects and winter sports while also adding bikes to the mix. In Riders Republic, join a massive multiplayer playground as you shred the snow, mud and dirt in real time with more than 50 players. Fly through snowy mountains with a wingsuit or race down arid canyons on your bike as you roam free in a huge open world.Choose whether you’d rather freestyle with some sweet Slopestyle and Freeride action or if you're more of an Enduro, Downhill, Gravel and Cross Country Races kinda rider!
