SAN FRANCISCO, CA- Ubisoft is set to pose new challenges for players of Steep, the multi-award–winning open world action-sports game. After years of allowing players to ski, snowboard, paraglide, and wingsuit around the massive open worlds of the Alps and Alaska, Steep is taking players to new locations: South Korea and Japan.

In honor of the Pyeongchang 2018 Olympic Winter Games, Ubisoft is making Steep even more interesting. Working in partnership with the International Olympic Committee, Ubisoft is creating an original expansion for Steep. Known as Steep Road to the Olympics, the extension allows players to explore South Korea and Japan while participating in Olympic events. Events include Downhill, Slopestyle, Halfpipe, Giant Slalom, Super G, and Big Air.
