During Ubisoft Forward, the publisher announced that Riders Republic will soon welcome a brand new discipline that should make many happy.
As the name suggests, extreme sports are dangerous. Luckily, video games are there to vicariously give us a small slice of the big thrills they offer. This is exactly what Riders Republic, the title developed by Ubisoft Annecy and released in October 2021, does. Made in France allows you to enjoy many extreme sports, from snowboarding to downhill mountain biking and snowmobiling. Thanks to this wide range, Riders Republic tries and manages to please as many people as possible. However, Ubisoft has decided to be even more generous and announce the addition of a new discipline during Ubisoft Forward, organized as part of Summer Game Fest 2023.
A popular discipline comes to Riders Republic
During the Ubisoft Forward 2023 conference, Ubisoft Annecy took the spotlight thanks to Riders Republic. The opportunity for the studio to announce the introduction of a new discipline to the game: skateboarding. The board will be available as part of the title’s Season 8. from September 26th. The gameplay sequence broadcast during the conference makes it possible to discover some characters, however Ubisoft indicates that the content presented may differ from the full version. The French studio promises fans “New tricks and challenges, exclusive customizations, a new area to show off your skills, and new career opportunities”.
Keep in mind that “the massively multiplayer extreme sports game,” as Ubisoft likes to call it, regularly features new challenges and new characters to keep the public interested. In addition to a fairly dense career mode, Riders Republic also offers a competitive multiplayer mode and an exploration mode. Players who enjoy the title can therefore expect particularly dense content that will keep them busy for hours. With the addition of skateboarding, the game should keep a good number of players while also attracting curious and obviously skateboarding enthusiasts (and Tony Hawk’s games…). Developed by Ubisoft Annecy, the title is available for PC, PlayStation and Xbox.
