With the Rocket Wingsuit it feels more like flying/steering a plane and maybe a bit of a learning curve (well for me as I tend to crash often). If you are biking or snowboarding/skiing movements are similar with buttons for acceleration and being able to jump and perform massive tricks to your hearts content without crashing and burning at the same time. If you have played Ubisoft’s prior extreme sports called Steep you will feel at home as its rather similar in controls and utilizes Ubisoft’s Snowdrop engine. Interestingly Riders Republic lets you change the Time of Day so you can play at Day, Night, Dusk, or Dawn if you desire. These areas are seven national parks which are Bryce Canyon, Yosemite Valley, Sequoia Park, Zion, Canyonlands, Mammoth Mountain and Grand Teton which are all connected into one massive single map.

You are essentially a rising star athlete coming through the ranks to make it to the top. Here you can do things like customize your player with items you won or bought, select sponsors, and even practice some moves before you go out into the vast open world around you. It’s a huge adventure park that shows you the rope of how the game is played. Riders Republic puts you in the middle of “Rider’s Ridge”. But it is all fun though? What is Riders Republic? It invites you to bike, ski/snowboard, or literally fly our way through the various courses presented to you. It ups the ante on action sports titles giving you not just one but three different ways to play the game. Ubisoft looks to change this with Riders Republic. There hasn’t been much in the extreme sports gaming atmosphere for awhile besides a remaster for Tony Hawk 1+2 that released last year. ![]()
