Ubisoft has made a great showing at this year's E3, showcasing everything from Mario and Rabbids Battle Kingdom to the exciting reveal of Beyond and Good and Evil 2. Their existing IP wasn't left without love, though, and extreme sports fans in particular were treated to a fresh look at an all new expansion to the company's popular winter sports title Steep.



The expansion is called Road to the Olympics, and as could be expected, the expansion offers players a way to train for Olympic competition through a series of gameplay modes like downhill skiing. Steep players can already ski, of course, but freestyle skiing currently on offer for the game lacks that distinct competitive flair.

Road to the Olympics will also offer up other new gameplay modes like Slopestyle, Halfpipe, Super G, Big Air, and Giant Slalom set across new locations in both South Korea and Japan.

Players can expect to get their hands on Steep's Road to the Olympics expansion on December 5.
