Riders Republic Season 19 is now live, introducing a summer-focused update built around new Pockett toys, brand collaborations, limited-time activities and several multiplayer improvements. The season launched on June 24 and gives players more ways to customise their riders, compete in community-made events and revisit the Republic’s social features through a redesigned multiplayer hub.

The update’s most unusual addition is the Pockett Bus – Fireblazer, a new compact vehicle designed around exaggerated handling, flame effects and stunt-focused movement. Season 19 also expands the game’s event calendar through the summer, with collectable hunts, player-made parks and dedicated activities tied to the new Pockett Bus.

The Pockett Bus turns Season 19 into a summer stunt playground

The headline feature of Season 19 is the Pockett Bus – Fireblazer, a new Pockett toy that behaves similarly to the Pockett Car but adds a more chaotic visual identity. Its Driving Nervously boost triggers flame effects from the rear wing while changing the vehicle’s appearance, and players can perform donuts by combining braking, acceleration and steering during the boost.

The Pockett Bus is available as a standalone purchase for approximately 950 Republic Coins, while it is also included in The Ridge Full Send Pack. Ubisoft has also made sure that players can access the featured developer event, The Ridge Full Send Stadium, directly from the activity menu even without owning the vehicle.

That decision matters because it keeps the season’s central activity open to the wider community rather than locking its main event behind a cosmetic purchase. Players can try the developer-designed stadium, then create their own versions and share them with other riders as the season progresses.

Roxy and Volcom expand the Republic’s summer style

Season 19 also adds two new Authentic collaborations with Roxy and Volcom. Both brands bring summer-inspired gear into Riders Republic, giving players more cosmetic options built around the game’s extreme-sports identity.

Roxy’s collection includes the Always Lucky outfit and a Surfbike, while Volcom arrives with the Dual Euro outfit and a BMX. The gear can be unlocked through the seasonal progression system, with additional outfits also available through the in-game shop.

New Pockett cosmetic options are part of the update as well. Alongside the Fireblazer bus, the Pockett Bike X – Rawr or Nothing skin and matching outfit have joined the rotation. These skins do not change the core handling of their respective toys, but they give players additional ways to match their equipment with their preferred rider aesthetic.

A revised season page and a clearer multiplayer hub

Ubisoft has reworked the season interface to make progression easier to follow. The revised Season Page places the active programme, reward path and weekly challenges in a more direct layout, reducing some of the friction involved in tracking seasonal objectives.

Completing the full progression journey also unlocks the Pockett Car SupaGreen, giving players a defined end reward beyond the rotating event content. This is a relatively focused quality-of-life change, but it addresses a common issue in live-service games: players need a clearer understanding of what to do next and what their time investment is leading toward.

The former Social tab has also been renamed Multiplayer. The change is more than cosmetic, as the new hub provides direct access to Free For All, Tricks Battle and Showdown. Ubisoft is also using the social channel for new notifications, making it easier for players to keep track of ongoing activities, updates and multiplayer opportunities.

Community-made events receive new competitive tools

User-generated content is one of the areas receiving the most meaningful support in Season 19. Players can now take UGC events into Versus Mode, allowing friends to compete directly in community-made creations rather than treating them only as casual playgrounds.

The event editor also gains a new Mine tool. These explosive traps can be placed in custom events to trigger blasts, launch riders in a chosen direction and disrupt a run when players collide with them. Riders who hit a mine receive a short immunity window afterward, preventing repeated hits from creating an unfair chain of explosions.

Ubisoft has also added the ability to replay UGC events more easily and reduced restrictions around checkpoint placement. These changes are particularly useful for creators who want to build more complex stunt lines, race routes or competitive challenges without being constrained by the older editor rules.

Season 19’s event calendar runs through October

The new season is structured around four main limited-time events. The Pockett Bus Event runs from June 24 to July 8, inviting players to tackle the Full Send Stadium and experiment with their own event creations.

From July 8 to July 22, the Summer Break event sends players across the map to collect ice creams hidden around Mammoth City and Abyss Arena. After that, Player’s Parks runs from July 22 to September 9, highlighting three special events created by the community.

The season closes with Back to School, which runs from September 9 to October 7 and brings the Pockett Bus to Mammoth Campus for a dedicated event. This schedule gives Season 19 a longer live-service rhythm than a single launch-week activity, with different reasons to return throughout the summer and early autumn.

A stronger season for social competition and community creativity

Season 19 does not radically reinvent Riders Republic, but it improves several areas that are central to the game’s long-term appeal. The Pockett Bus provides a playful new toy, the branded gear expands cosmetic variety, and the updated season interface makes progression easier to understand.

The more important change may be the expanded support for community content. Versus Mode for UGC events, explosive traps in the editor and fewer checkpoint limitations give creators more control while giving multiplayer groups new ways to compete outside Ubisoft’s own curated activities.

For returning riders, Season 19 offers a more structured mix of progression, multiplayer access and seasonal events. For creators, it is one of the game’s more substantial updates in terms of tools and competitive possibilities. More information here.
