Ubisoft delays Riders Republic

Ubisoft has delayed 'Riders Republic' until later in the year.

The studio has confirmed the upcoming "mass multiplayer outdoor extreme sports game" - which was set to be released on Xbox, PlayStation and PC on February 25 - will instead launch at an unspecified point in 2021.

In a statement, the development team said: "In September, we gave you a first look at our massive multiplayer playground in 'Riders Republic'.

"We promised an action-packed outdoor sports park, filled with all-out mass races with more than 50 fellow riders on next-gen consoles, a variety of diverse activities and insane stunts.

"We can’t wait to have you traverse our vibrant world and live out your own rider’s fantasy.

"Today, we want to let you know that we have made the decision to move our release to later this year.

"This additional time will allow our passionate team to deliver the best fun fuelled experience to our players.

"Thank you so much for your support and understanding. Stay safe and get ready to join the madness of 'Riders Republic' soon!"

There has been no hint of a new release date yet, besides confirmation it will come later in 2021.
