Skiing Game Pass hit Lonely Mountains hits 1 million players, celebrates with massive update - trick mode, free ride, & more!

Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders just passed a massive milestone. Indie team Megagon announced they’ve hit 1 million players! To celebrate, they’re releasing a real gamechanger of an update, launching simultaneously on PC and Xbox today… and it’s free!

The ‘Freestylers’ update adds two new modes: Trick Mode with over 100 challenges to complete, and the highly requested Free Ride Mode, where players carve their own way down the slopes without any checkpoints, plus a wide range of accessibility features. Check below for more info!



About the Update:

The ‘Freestylers’ update adds two major new modes, Trick Mode and Free Ride Mode. In Trick Mode players compete for style over speed, completing over 100 challenges in a grounds-up reimagining of the Snow Riders experience. Free Ride Mode is a beloved mode from Megagon’s earlier hit Lonely Mountains: Downhill, now on the slopes of Snow Riders! The ultimate challenge to all speedrunners, Free Ride removes all checkpoints, allowing players to carve their own ultrafast route down the mountain.

Both modes come with full leaderboard support and new achievements. There’s also a wide range of new accessibility features, including auto-break, auto-accelerate, toggling buttons instead of holding them, and button mapping.
