Traversing the wife-open expanse and discovering points of interest unlocks Stars towards your overall career progression, and finding Relics unlocks some of the most unique rides that you can use. Teton flows right into Yosemite National Park, and down into Zion Canyon almost seamlessly it’s a meticulously crafted and beautiful map which has been given Ubisoft’s usual flair, allowing players to explore the map in 3D and even follow other players along their runs.
The soundtrack features almost 100 songs from electronic, to rock and hip-hop, which make for some wicked tracks to set any mood, whether you’re shredding The Offspring or having a Zen exploration with Aphex Twin. Some of the most fun that I had with Rider’s Republic was exploring the different biomes, and unlocking all of the Landmarks and Relics that are strewn throughout the world. It’s an exceptionally malleable system that makes the typically mundane act of traversal into an exciting explorative adventure. You can fast travel to any areas that you have unlocked, but it’s much more fun to switch to your bike or snowboard, or get there the gold ol-fashioned way: careening hundreds of kilometers an hour through the air in your rocket wingsuit. Because of the wealth of transportation options that are afforded to the player, getting from point A to point B is never a chore. Taking some cues from The Crew, you can switch between any of the different sports, as well as to a variety of motorized or rocket-powered vehicles which make traversal an expedient delight. Ubisoft has done an absolutely spectacular job in amalgamating seven of the most rugged national parks in America into a vast expanse of varied terrain that’s just asking to be shredded through and thoroughly explored. You can move from event to event, racing down mountainsides, careening through forests or performing tricks on some of the wildest runs, or you can pick a direction and just lose yourself in the beautifully crafted world. Rider’s Republic, Ubisoft’s spiritual successor to Steep, is everything that you could want from an extreme sports playground. Having stood at the top of Killington Peak in Vermont before descending the almost hour-long run on my snowboard, I’ve felt the awe and serenity of these sights, before the rush of adrenaline trying to dominate the trails. This is what drives many people to extreme sports, be it snowboarding, mountain biking, or streaking through the skies in wingsuits. Letting the mountains and trails take you where they will and stopping to gaze in awe at the landscapes around you, before trying to tackle them in any way possible. There is something about completely giving yourself over to nature that can really put everything else into perspective.
