#NEWS: #TECH: #STEEP – RELEASE OPEN WORLD GAME THAT COMBINES A VARIETY OF EXTREME SPORTS

For those of us who love the rush of a downhill slope, but just can’t get to ride them as much as we’d like, there’s something new coming that’s going to blow your mind.

Among its various trailers and hype reels at E3 2016, Gaming Company Ubisoft had one surprise announcement: “Steep”, an open-world game that combines a variety of extreme sports, including snowboarding, skiing and gliding through the air in a wingsuit.

Ubisoft did not reveal whether it has virtual reality plans for the game, however “Steep” is designed to let online players cavort together, and capture video of feats or crashes to share socially.

“Ride a massive open world of the Alps and Alaska, where the powder is always fresh and the run never ends. Defy and master the world’s most epic mountains on skis, wingsuit, snowboard, and in paraglide. Go solo or drop in side by side with other players. Record and share the most insane stunts ever captured, then challenge the world to beat your best tricks, ride your custom lines, and relive your most epic wipe-outs.”

The mountain is yours to explore. So strap in, suit up, and drop in.

Steep will be available in December 2016, you can take a look right here at the trailer.
