To celebrate the release of the free DLC, the base game is now also discounted by 45% on Steam and on the Nintendo eShop.

With Riley’s Return, Mount Riley has just gotten a whole lot bigger, opening up more of its breathtaking natural environment for you to explore.

With this free DLC, you can expect to dive into exciting new challenges and relax in two new resting places on the rediscovered lost trail. Battle for supremacy on the leaderboards and unlock cool new gear that mirrors the palette of Mount Riley’s awe-inspiring natural landscapes, including the wilderness colours of the Terra outfit, the new Earth and Forest bags, and a Grime paint job for riders that want to embrace the natural hues of the forest.
