Ubisoft has identified and is investigating the following issues:
I’m unable to change to Snow Sports.
I recently unlocked snow sports, and the game is now prompting me to change from my bike to my new skis. Could you please assist me in getting my skis to switch to?
Regardless, I pulled the trigger and ended up purchasing the game, despite the fact that I had all of the crashes during the trial period.
Ten minutes into the Santa Cruz bike challenge, there was a stutter, followed by a freeze, which hung for about 30 seconds before quitting to the dashboard……
I was hoping it was just a trial issue, but it appears that there are major issues with the Xbox Series X. I see there are already a number of forum posts and social media reports on the same topic.
This should be the developers’ top priority because the game is unplayable for a large number of people.
The game crashes every time I try to launch it [PC]
When I started the race with the road bike, the game crashed mid-race, and now every time I restart the game, it crashes when I start to move after quickly travelling to the race I need to do next.
Other known bugs and issues:
Graphical Errors / Problems in Riders Republic (Zen Mode)
