Celebrate the 15th Anniversary (14 Dec to 21 Dec and 4 Jan to 11 Jan)
The Republic will celebrate the 15th anniversary of one of Ubisoft’s most famous gaming brands! On this occasion, Riders will get immersed in some special celebration, including time limited collectible activities, Ezio and Eivor cosplay outfits, a dedicated tribute emote, a radio station available for the whole season and playing the game’s iconic audio tracks, and more. During the first of these 2 weeks, a photo competition will also take place and a special photo overlay will be available. Players will need to share their best interpretation of the brotherhood inside the Republic.
Holiday Season Celebration (21 December to 28 December)
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Let’s celebrate the holiday season! Riders will have a set of free weekly challenges to earn themed rewards and get the perfect look ready for the party. This week also includes a new special mass race, as well as themed outfits in the shop. The Holiday season radio will be back and available for 2 weeks.
New Year’s Eve (31 December to 4 January)
Bye 2022… Here comes 2023! Riders will get a proper celebration as they will enjoy a firework show in the hub. New challenges will be set up to get the first ever epic Burger Box, with chances to win legendary items from past season, and a pair of cool 2023 celebration googles if they connect and get in the Riders Ridge during this community event. Riders can also enjoy a special new year’s Mass Race and a themed overlay in photo-mode. A line-up of new shiny outfits with animated patterns and FX will be available in the in-game shop.
X Games Winter edition (25 January to 1 January)
To immerse players in the world’s most famous freestyle competition, two X GAMES events will be available to all players for the week, even if they don’t own them yet. Special weekly challenges will be set on these 2 events to win exclusive X GAMES rewards. Riders will also get a blast trying snow themed special Mass Races and the Ridge will be updated with X Games elements.
Ghost Warriors (15 February to 22 February)
During this week, players’ skills will be challenged as the Warriors Mass Race is coming back. New modifiers will be set for even more tension. Riders will need to be ready for the Ghost Warriors Mass Races featuring no collision, nighttime atmosphere, and exclusive associated rewards.
This brand-new Season will allow Riders to be stylish yet technical, as The North Face enters in the Republic as the season sponsor! This collaboration, highly expected by Riders, will come with new outfits to find in the in-game store for the whole season. The iconic The North Face Himalayan Suit can be unlocked at the end of the season progression, and The North Face Base Camp Duffle bag will come as a reward for one of the weeks to come.
Moreover, Riders will get their hands on more “couture” items this season, as Prada joins the party once more! For this new collaboration, Prada designed an exclusive BMX for the game and a special associated outfit. But there is more! Prada has also released a real snowboard inspired from the previous collaboration’s flame outfit design, and Riders will be able to unlock it in the season progression.
