Ubisoft has just announced recently on their E3 2016 conference their new video game called "Steep." The game publisher has scheduled its release at a later date.

The game publisher also announced that the game will have a great share feature and other social elements. Those who will be playing the game will have to play on the same mountain and can interact with one another during their gameplay. However, they have the option to disable the collision option so that they will not ruin the gameplay of the other players.
Players will be able to play on different locations like Italy, Austria, France, and Switzerland. There were no specific mountain ranges announced by the game publishers and there is still no inform if the game will be based on locations that are based on the real world.
