An incredible extreme sports experience with one of the coolest worlds I've seen from Ubisoft. Having 6-7 major national parks just Frankensteined into each other is absolutely insane and brilliant for a game like this. Game is let down a little by the fact that it tries to be Fortnite, but the bones here are good.

it's a shame that the actual gameplay is so tight, responsive and fun to play because to get to it you have to wade through ten tonnes of micro transaction mud to get to it.

Fantastic game, had a lot of fun playing each and every sport. All the mechanics are extremely satisfying while being complex and interesting. I was able to complete all (except for maybe 3) campaign missions on 3 stars except for the ones which required grinding the sponsors to unlock. As for the cons: The graphics are laughable, it felt like 720p with some smoothing. The RNG would not give me 900 bike even on max career level, so I couldn't get 3 stars everywhere. There are kind of a lot of levels which are not that exciting, I wish there were fewer, but more challenging ones. Finally, it was impossible to find enough people to start a match in multiplayer, but the mass races don't have this problem and are very cool, although I see no reason why we should wait like a minute between matches and why there are only 3 maps, it gets boring quick.

its REALLY REALLY good and i have a addiction too speed but its a UBISOFT game so obviously there is paid features which is really annoying but its really fun and it feels good to hit good lines in the game.

I think this is one of those games where you probably already know if it's for you or not.

I really enjoyed Steep, really enjoyed this, will probably really enjoy the next one if it ever gets made.
I found the downhill biking and wingsuit events genuinely quite exciting (especially in first-person) and the various collectibles that are dotted around the giant and varied map were actually pretty fun to collect thanks to all forms of sports being constantly available to you.
The UI is definitely over-complicated and the matchmaking falls apart given everyone is riding with different level transportation (and those levels massively affect the speed at which you travel), but as a single player experience (which, granted, you stupidly cannot access whilst playing offline) I thought this was a blast in which I was more than happy to see to the end of each sports career.

I remember the licensed Steep soundtrack being way better than this though and ended up resorting to playing Spotify from my PS5 whilst playing which works a treat!

It was fun for a while if you can look past the horrible clutter on the screen. Still enjoyed the snowboard more than riding a bike or wingsuit...Just stick to "Steep", unless you like to ride a bicycle ofcourse.
