The action sports game Riders Republic is out September 2, Ubisoft announced during its E3 conference. It’ll release on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.
Riders Republic is a multiplayer mountain sports game that was first announced last year during Ubisoft’s second summer showcase, popping up in the final moments as that event’s “Oh, but one more thing!” reveal. Initially planned for February 25, 2021, Ubisoft delayed the game in January, writing that the “additional time will allow our passionate team to deliver the best fun fueled experience to our players.” Ubisoft did not announce a specific release date at the time.
Crucially, Riders Republic has a significant multiplayer component. Ubisoft says sessions can feature up to 50 players, and says the following modes will be playable:
- Competitive races and trick challenges, all of which are playable competitively, cooperatively, or solo.
- Mass Starts, races that feature 50 or more players.
- Community Jams, or events that appear randomly and feature 50 players or more.
- Multiplayer arenas that includes six-vs.-six score challenges.
- Online Cups, described as “for the very best only,” competing for leaderboard rankings.
