Mountainboard

The most hyped addition in this update is the Mountainboard. This new toy brings three unique boards, each with its own vibe, across ten epic events. You can grab it in the in-game store, either solo or as part of the Year 3 Pass. Get ready to mix up your gameplay with fresh challenges and thrilling new opportunities for every type of rider!

Activity Panel

The new Activity Panel is a game-changer for how you dive into the Republic's content. This dynamic, tile-based menu makes it easier to spot what's hot---especially if you're new around here. Perfect timing for those joining through Game Pass on September 11th, right?  It gives you instant access to featured activities like "Mass Races," "Best Spot Location," or "Quickly Start or Continue Your Career." Plus, you'll find tiles for Lab Events and Weekly Activities! And if you're more into the old-school vibe, you can turn it off in the game settings, keeping things just how you like them.

Onboarding Rework

We've revamped the onboarding to get new players into the action quicker. Now, you can easily toggle Text-to-Speech, skip onboarding videos with a simple button, and we've removed the Gamepad Preset Racer/Trickster choice from the initial setup. No worries---you can still switch between trickster and racer once you're in the game, so you can dial in the presets that suit you best! These tweaks are all about speeding up your entry while making sure you're geared up with everything you need to dive into the Republic.

Save on UGC

We've made creating UGC smoother than ever with the new save feature. Now, you can save your progress as a draft and pick up where you left off anytime. Plus, the autosave after edits ensures you won't lose any work, even if you get disconnected or close the game. And with three slots, you've got some solid backup to cover any slip-ups! UGC creation just got a whole lot easier and more reliable!

Seasonal Content

This season is packed with fresh content, including a freshly dressed Fall Hub and a new 20-tier season progression. Get ready for six live events and two live areas each week, and a lineup of weekly challenges! Plus, the in-game store's got rotating offers, so there's always something new to snag. Check out the new evo outfits that transform mid-air when you jump! And we added an option in the in-game store so you can see what the animation looks like for these outfits! We've also added a description in the in-game interface to let you know what the condition is for their animation. We've dropped a fresh FFA playlist featuring a mix of mountainboard, longboard, hoverboard, and skateboard events!  Finally, don't forget the special mass races where unique rewards are up for grabs and the competition stays fierce!

Calendar for Mass Races

Speaking of mass races, the updated schedule now features special twists like Mountain Board races and themed events like Halloween and Hacker. These races come with exclusive rewards---outfits, legendary loot boxes, and unique filters---giving you plenty of reasons to dive in. Eyeing those competition weeks? Mark your calendar:
