Riders Republic Season 18 kicks off today, marking the start of a collaboration with Authentic Brands Group. The season will also bring Riders a returning Rabbid Hunters event, a new and improved Season Progression, a Skateboard update, and more.
Riders Republic and Authentic Brands Group
Riders Republic’s partnership with Authentic Brands Group, a leading global brand development agency and licensing platform, begins today, bringing Authentic’s world-class action sports ecosystem into the game. The collaboration will last three seasons and feature exclusive in-game gear, toys, and apparel inspired by different brands from Authentic’s catalogue.
“This collaboration reinforces Riders Republic’s commitment to delivering a dynamic and evolving player experience,” said Alexandre Enklaar, Riders Republic Live Producer at Ubisoft Annecy. “Aligning seasonal content with the energy and identity of each brand supports rich seasonal storytelling, celebrates the diversity of action sports, and unlocks new opportunities for fans to engage with the brands that inspire them.”
Check out some of the Authentic Brands Group gear you can equip in Riders Republic today:
- Two outfits from Quicksilver’s new collection, inspired by the brand’s surf heritage and laid-back coastal style, perfect for Riders to catch some rays
- One Quicksilver surfboard that makes it easy for Riders to take on any challenge while snow surfing
- One full DC branded outfit that players can take for a spin on their dirt bikes or a multitude of toys
- A DC variant BMX bike for Riders to stack up plenty of grinds and half-pipe rides
