![]() ![]() When you first step into the game, you’re greeted by a multi-sport race that starts you off with biking, then with a rocket suit halfway through, and with skiing by the end. Doing races and challenges in this game never gets old, and it also helps that there are various sports that you can do so you can diversify your experience. Whenever you’re up and running, participating in whichever event on any given sport that’s available in the game, the amount of fun you’ll have skyrockets to the heavens. Right off the bat, the best reason to play this game is its electrifyingly fun gameplay. The skiing, snowboarding, and wingsuit flying gameplay that was in Steep makes a return in this title and is now accompanied by biking and rocket suit races, among so many others. In this game, the studio improves on the things they already know and incorporates new things that feel symbiotic to the core mechanic and theme of the game, all for the sake of the player’s enjoyment. Thank god Ubisoft Annecy created Riders Republic a solid proof of the latter.Īfter creating Steep, the studio’s previous title, Riders Republic very much feels like a result of Ubisoft Annecy stretching their muscles. Others, however, remind us that there’s beauty and energy in and around this genre a studio can tap into, should they be willing to do that. Some sports games in recent history have easily fallen into a void where inspiration and technical proficiency are absent and financially predatory techniques are so evident, they might as well ask me for my bank information just as I boot up the game. Die-hard fans and casual players of sports games know this. The sports genre in video games is a dangerous ground to tread on.
