Ubisoft announced that Steep will be free to play this weekend beginning March 10 on Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

Players who dream of pulling off insane ski and snowboard tricks in the extreme peaks of Mount Denali and the Matterhorn, paragliding over the icefields of Mont Blanc or wingsuiting through the Alaska massive glaciers can participate in the free weekend and choosing their platform.

Players can access the games on each platform during the following times:

  • Xbox One: 3/10 at 12:01 a.m. PT to 3/13 at 11:59 p.m. PT
  • PS4: 3/10 at 10 a.m. PT to 3/13 at 10 a.m. PT
  • Uplay: 3/10 at 10 a.m. PT to 3/13 at 10 a.m. PT

Players who choose to purchase the game online during this free weekend can do so at a discount, and without losing their progress. Starting March 10 there will be a 50 percent discount on Steep’s Standard Edition and a 40 percent discount for Steep’s Gold Edition on XBL until March 13, and PSN until March 20. On Ubisoft’s Store, there is a 50 percent discount for Steep’s Standard and Gold Edition until March 14.

Steep’s most recent update added the wild, extreme peaks of Alaska’s Mount Denali, including 21 new challenges, 2 branded challenges and one Mountain Story. In Steep’s Alaska, players can conquer new terrain including spinelines, extreme crests, massive glaciers, new urban features and miles of untouched nature. Two additional invitationals challenge players to raise their reputation by pushing their limits on the slopes and outdoing themselves on the leaderboards. Steep fans can continue to customize their lines and replays by donning new Alaska items and costumes.

The latest Steep title update lets players focus on the fun with enhancements made to features, including the tricks system and g-force impacts. Additionally, new camera angles and the ability to capture replay videos without the HUD gives players even more freedom to show off their best stunts with the editor mode.
