SportsOpen WorldRacingCo-op
An extreme-sports theme park stitched from America's national parks: bikes, skis, wingsuits and rocket wingsuits across one seamless playground, with 60-player mass races that are pure joyful chaos. Ubisoft's most underrated live game - the Steam release finally gave it its audience.
Similar-game research
In Riders Republic, you traverse a massive US national park open world on bikes, skis, snowboards, or wingsuits, racing against over 50 players to the finish line. The picks below shift the discipline, trick input, and multiplayer pressure across procedural downhill, realistic skate sims, and arcade street skating.

Descenders
SportsArcadeRoguelikePublic similarity
- Why it's similar
- You pick a downhill line, steer through sharp turns and jumps, and crash if you mistime a landing; crossing the finish earns reputation based on your tricks and speed. Both demand fast reflexes and precise control while descending at high velocity.
- Choose it when
- Prefer fresh downhill terrain over memorized tracks and are willing to drop wingsuits and other sports to focus solely on the bike.
- But
- Courses are procedurally generated each run, so slopes and obstacles change every time, and you join a team (Enemy, Arboreal, Kinetic) competing for team reputation rather than racing the same tracks against a 50-player lobby.
Shredders
SportsExplorationRelaxingPublic similarity
- Why it's similar
- You carve across an open mountain, hit rails and kickers to perform grabs and spins, and complete sponsored video challenges. Both rely on chaining tricks smoothly while exploring varied terrain, with an emphasis on style over raw speed.
- Choose it when
- Want to commit to realistic snowboarding with a career narrative and are ready to give up wingsuiting and large-scale multiplayer races.
- But
- A story mode has you interact with pro riders and learn their signature moves through tasks, while animations mimic real boarders for a more realistic read. The focus stays on snowboarding alone, not switching between multiple sports.
Lonely Mountains: Downhill
SportsRelaxingAtmosphericPublic similarity
- Why it's similar
- You descend from peak to valley through forests, rivers, and rocky terrain, balancing on narrow trails and picking the fastest line. Both emphasize route choice and obstacle avoidance during a continuous downhill run.
- Choose it when
- Want a focused solo descent without other players or sport switching, and are comfortable with a minimal, low-fi visual style.
- But
- It's single-player only, with no open-world or multiplayer traffic; you ride at your own pace through untouched nature, although time trials and leaderboards still push you to be fast.
Tony Hawk's™ Pro Skater™ 3 + 4
SportsArcadeQuick PlayPublic similarity
- Why it's similar
- You skate through parks chaining tricks—grabs, flips, grinds—to build a score within a 2-minute run. Both center on trick execution and combo efficiency, pushing you to link moves without bailing.
- Choose it when
- Prefer score-chasing arcade skating with direct multiplayer competition over open-world roaming, and don't need other sports or realistic physics.
- But
- Missions have specific goals and a strict timer, with score attack as the core loop; up to 8 players compete online, and you can create custom parks with custom goals to share.
Skater XL - The Ultimate Skateboarding Game
SportsSimulationRelaxingPublic similarity
- Why it's similar
- You pick lines across real-life skate spots, moving each foot with thumbsticks to ollie, flip, and grind. Both grant fine-grained control over the board, rewarding experimentation and style.
- Choose it when
- Want an open-ended sandbox for creative self-expression and filming, not structured goals, and have a compatible controller ready.
- But
- There's no scoring or missions; every trick emerges from physics and stick input, and you record replays for your own edits. Levels are modeled on actual landmarks, and a controller is mandatory—keyboard is not supported.
