Trials Rising

Ubisoft has introduced the Gigatrack for Trials Rising. The free DLC launches this coming week, and will have players taking on the series’ longest track ever across five different environments.

Here’s a brief overview of the Gigatrack:

In previous years, Ubisoft held an annual press conference at E3 2020. But since the event was entirely scrapped due to the coronavirus, the company shifted plans to an online presentation instead. The broadcast, known as Ubisoft Forward, kicks off today at 12 PM PT / 3 PM ET / 8 PM in the UK / 9 PM in Europe. Some sort of pre-show should also be starting soon.

Ubisoft hasn’t confirmed all of the games that will be shown, so it’s unclear how much of the showcase will be relevant to Switch owners. Games like Gods & Monsters, Roller Champions, and Just Dance are possibilities.

You can watch Ubisoft Forward as it happens below. We’ll be reporting on any notable Nintendo-related news throughout the event.
