    Road to Olympics is a sincere, passionate and compelling love letter to the Olympic spirt. It’s not a proper game about Pyeongchang Winter Games but rather a Steep-style take on them, with a fresh and intense game campaign, an amazing new mountain to explore and a lot of challenges to take. If you loved Steep, you’ll love this expansion even more.

    A good Olympic expansion that makes the base game a bit more serious than in the past. Steep is now a one of the richest extreme sports games of the last decade, but be careful: the amount of content can overwhelm you!

    Road to the Olympics is a solid addition to Steep. Even if the story mode is lacking, the Olympic events and new Japan-based massif are more than enough to make this worth your time, especially with the PyeongChang games on the horizon. It might look like one of those weary licensed games of the PS1 and PS2 days, but fret not, because Road to the Olympics is the real deal.

    Steep: Road to the Olympics brings enough new content to the table to make it a worthwhile acquisition for any Steep fan. The Become a Legend mode in particular adds a goal-focused narrative that so many gamers have been conditioned to crave while Japan allows the free form exploration of some nice looking snow-covered countryside. Steep was not on the smoothest course when it was first released, but the numerous tweaks and additional content have made it a more enjoyable experience overall. People who were completely unimpressed by Steep when it was first released will likely not see enough of a change to have this content change their mind, but those who were will find a lot to love in the expansion.

    Even with the structure of the Olympic events being lacking, there’s still more than enough content here to justify the asking price.

    With the Become a Legend story mode, Road to the Olympics it's a nice twist for Steep. This new DLC offer a really far experience from the original game but at the same time it keeps the good gameplay feeling.

    This content neither plays to Steep's existing strengths nor gives gamers looking for Olympic competition anything satisfying.

But the expansion makes it all better: finally good rail physics, a lot of rails and crazy snow parks in the beautiful new open world area (Japan), finally a good "career" mode (road to the Olympics) and surprisingly good classic alpine skiing events (super-G, downhill, slalom, etc.). This makes it by far the best winter sports game since ages.… Expand

    Also, the story mode is a 10/10, most sports games struggle to create any type of immersive dialogue in a career/story mode and the "road to the olympics" really made me feel like i NEEDED to finish in 1st place for my countries pride (or whatever, lol).
    The only reason this isn't a 10/10 for me is because the Olympic side of the mountain isn't available for free travel and that blows, but other then that, I love it! good job ubisoft. Maybe consider a CO/UT package!!    … Expand

    I'm not sure if they went too far in the simulation aspect, but I prefer the older SSX games that emphasised fun, something this game sorely lacking.

    Learning to play it was confusing, and the layout of the events and maps are even more confusing. There are also tons of microtransactions in there too, so I'll be trading this game back in again in the hope that a better snowboarding game comes along in future.    … Expand
