Ubisoft announced that Riders Republic is available to play for free from February 10 – 14 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One consoles. Players can pre-load the game on PlayStation today. In addition, Ubisoft announced a partnership with innovative Italian brand Prada to bring the iconic red stripe collection, Prada Linea Rossa, to Riders Republic’s outdoor sports playground.
Starting February 8, players will discover sections of the Riders Ridge social hub decorated with the colors of Prada Linea Rossa as they are immersed in a thematic experience. Blending influences drawn from the world of technical sportswear with streamlined silhouettes, Prada Linea Rossa redefines the idea of modern luxury, with a focus on technical detailing and new manufacturing possibilities. Dynamic, versatile and high-performance designs define a new urban uniform geared towards movement.
This collaboration will offer unique activities and cosmetics, including:
- A new event, Prada Beyond the Line: Playable solo or versus friends, this event is a creative new take of one of the most epic snow parks of the Republic and will allow players to use the Faction x Prada Linea Rossa skis, as well as the Riders Republic jumbo bike and new freestyle snowmobile for free.*
- An original in-game outfit designed exclusively by Prada for Riders Republic; players can unlock the outfit by competing in the Shackdaddy Bandits weekly challenges.
- A new Prada sponsor program, featuring new gear such as a bike, skis, snowboard and two additional original Prada outfits (available February 16).
‘‘We are excited to partner with such a creative company like Ubisoft to offer our own interpretation of the gaming world. Riders Republic is about outdoor sports and performance – the perfect match with the Linea Rossa collection and its DNA. Technology and innovation have always been a natural part of Prada, so we will continue to explore new scenarios whenever interesting opportunities for the brand arise to build original and authentic experiences.’’
Lorenzo Bertelli – Prada Group Marketing Director & Head of Corporate Social Responsibility
