Now Playing: Rider's Republic Reveal Trailer | Ubisoft Forward 2020
It’s worth noting these player-count limitations are specific to competitive online races, meaning players could see far more people online in the open-world and far less while participating in 6v6 game modes. Additionally, it’s unclear if these player-count limitations apply to other console generations and platforms, such as Xbox One versus Xbox Series X|S.
Originally slated to launch on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S on February 25, Ubisoft announced earlier this month that Riders Republic has been delayed to “later this year.” The studio has not announced a new release date as of yet.
Riders Republic is an extreme action-sports title reminiscent of Steep, Ubisoft’s other extreme sports game from 2016. It features a variety of activities for players to participate in, including snowboarding, mountain biking, and wingsuiting.
