When the issues of a game are rolled and stomped by its greatness, then it’s something to invest on if you have some spare.

Ubisoft's love letter to Steep fans manages to provide an MMORPG unlike any we've seen before. There is no question that Ubisoft Annecy knows how to make an exciting extreme sports game, but after dozens of hours of playing, one question beckons. Does an extreme sports game need to be massively multiplayer?

Overall, Riders Republic takes what makes Forza Horizon great and puts an X-Games type twist to it. Biking, Snowboarding, and wingsuit races will make you want more action as you complete story missions and events to earn sponsors. Riders republic is out for most major systems and consoles right now for 59.99 USD.

Riders Republic is an onslaught of speed and mayhem, which can lead to excitement, frustration, and often both simultaneously. It offers a high octane and adrenaline-fueled sporting experience that can challenge or relax you in equal measure. And after a not too insignificant delay earlier in the year, Riders Republic has finally arrived.

After a few hurdles, Riders Republic from Ubisoft Annecy launched 28 October 2021 to extreme sports enthusiasts on Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, Playstation 4, Playstation 5, and PC. We’ve given it a try in an earlier closed beta, as well as having had an interview with Manfred Neber, the game’s lead designer. Well, let’s not keep the trails untouched, and get right into the open world that awaits.

Riders Republic is a surprisingly good time with arcade-like extreme sports that feel thoroughly unique from one another. Online events are the best parts of the game, though it can get bogged down by glitches and server-related issues. Despite that, Riders Republic is still one of my surprise pleasures of 2021.

Riders Republic is far from being the best game I have played in 2021, but it is probably the most fun I had this year. It takes the best of the golden age of extreme sports games and combines it all with a vast and vivid open world full of snowy and rocky areas for you to enjoy all the rides available at launch.

Riders Republic is Ubisoft's latest go at an extreme sports game, and it's great.

Riders Republic is at its core a fun game that only wants you to have fun, more than most games. Its UI isn't the best, and there still seem to be some bugs that need to be ironed out, but there are no issues that really break your fun along the way. On top of the gorgeous presentation, Riders Republic is easy to recommend for anyone with a liking towards a game where they can flip around three times on a pair of rocket ski's mid-air while dressed as a giraffe.

Ah, a Ubisoft game. Giant, unfathomably-massive open world? Check. Technical problems that make it feel like it could all fall apart at any second? Yep, check again.

If you like the idea of thrill-seeking but you’d rather do it from the comfort of your living room, Riders Republic should be right up your street. This is pure entertainment at its finest; a game that’s all about having fun, living in the moment, and not taking life seriously. Play it straight and try to win every race if you want. Or simply speed around dressed in an inflatable giraffe costume. It’s your choice, and that in itself is the beauty of Riders Republic.

You'll find many enjoyable hours exploring, racing, and styling your way around Riders Republic. The world is gorgeous, the sound design and music choices are on point. There are only a few events that will frustrate you. Thankfully, you can mostly avoid these.

Riders Republic can be a ton of colorful fun, with go-anywhere do-anything extreme sports gameplay that is instantly accessible and appealing, all wrapped up in a tortilla of weird goofiness. Engage with the stuff you like, ignore the stuff you don't, and get penalized for absolutely nothing. Riders Republic is most concerned with letting the good times roll-and for the most part, it succeeds admirably.

What Riders Republic lacks in depth, it more than makes up for in variety.

A chaotically structured open world racer, Riders Republic feels like the free roaming SSX sequel we never had.

Extreme sports games had their moment back in the late 90s and early 2000s, before hitting the skids hard and largely disappearing. In more recent years there’s been some halting attempts to restart the genre, but nothing had quite stuck. Well, Ubisoft is hoping extreme sports fans have an appetite the smorgasbord approach as the just-released Riders Republic offers up snowboarding, skiing, biking, and wingsuit gliding in one big ambitious open-world package.

Riders Republic is a game players can effortlessly lose themselves in, even if the gameplay itself is pretty shallow. The endless barrage of events populating the world map become less exciting over time, resembling a shopping list rather than milestones in your ascension to extreme sports godhood. If you’re still keen to take the plunge, make sure you have a posse ready to party up with.

I think that this series has a lot of potential to grow in the future. There are a lot of crazy and bright ideas to be explored, and Ubisoft did a fantastic job of making the environment feel alive. With how the current controls and gameplay loop sit, though, I can't find myself wanting to sit down and play this much longer after its release.

Riders Republic is a fun game that offers a wide range of exhilarating and unique activities that mostly benefit from its 'always online' gameplay model, but also suffers from a few shortcomings. The world feels alive, the Events are a blast and the game looks gorgeous. However, some aspects of the game are a little lacking at launch, namely the multiplayer modes, customisation and air sports.

Riders Republic makes a strong case as one of the best and most varied extreme sports games to date, with a solid offering of unique vehicles that are fun to use and master. The expansive open world and huge number of events will ensure that players could spend countless hours completing every challenge and finding every secret, all on top of the exciting multiplayer options. There’s still technical issues to iron out, but whether you want the chaotic thrills of Mass Races or the chilling exploration of Zen mode, the accessible and deep nature of Riders Republic makes it a...

Ubisoft’s approach to open world game design has worn thinner than a snowboarder’s baggy pants, but the French publisher keeps returning to it because it works. Riders Republic does little to hide the fact that it’s effectively The Crew 2 in an extreme sports skin, and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. This multi-disciplined online sandbox is an outrageous technical feat, but it stumbles on some of the smaller details along the way.

A sprawling, varied, endlessly fun open-world game, and a glimmer of hope for the extreme sports genre.

Riders Republic is a sprawling, messy, open world playground, an extreme sports game for the TikTok generation, incredibly ambitious, audacious and pure, fast, fantasy fun. Riders Republic is a land of youthful bodies that can never break, endless trails, perfect powder and energy drink-stoked good times. But will the fun times last?

At its best Riders Republic successfully captures the sense of adventure and risk-taking that make extreme sports so appealing.

A definite improvement over Steep, thanks to the Mass Races and the new bike discipline, but Ubisoft Annecy has still got a lot of work to do if it wants to break into upper echelons of gaming. It should look to Playground Games and how they craft an elite open-world sports game if they want to reach that next-level, then maybe they too could be mentioned in the same breath as SSX Tricky. Fingers crossed, the potential is definitely there!

Riders Republic is a fantastic open world sports game that delivers big on massively multiplayer arcade mayhem whilst also giving solo players a ton of content to dig into. There's an enormous, breathtakingly beautiful world to explore here that delivers carefully curated tracks and events for each every one of its sports disciplines, whilst also giving you free reign to head on out and cut your own path through its seven national parks' worth of wonderful wilderness. Yes there's some painful dialogue here and there, as well some issues with bugs and crashes during this launch period, but none of...

Riders Republic is exactly the game it is trying to be, with a modern take on early 2000s xtreme sports games that works in terms of everything except the corporate-mandated ambience.

The framing of Riders Republic is much simpler than I was expecting, in a good way — after a ramp-up, you can just go do your thing with your favorite piece of extreme sports gear in this sandbox, and that’s “the game.” There are more carrots on more sticks, and there are going to be more live-service distractions trying to tempt you long-term, but that’s it if you want it to be. You can focus on downhill bike races or snowboard trick events and not worry about what other players are doing. I’m kind of relieved. It’s not every day...

Riders Republic is an awesome, fresh entry in both the racing and action sports genre.
