How Riders Republic Crossplay Works

By default, crossplay is enabled in Riders Republic, so you don’t have to worry about turning it on within the settings. You’ll be able to tell what platform those you’re racing against or come across in the world are playing on by the icon next to their name. The Xbox, PlayStation and Ubisoft logos indicate they’re playing on Xbox, PlayStation or PC (and streaming platforms such as Google Stadia) respectively.
