As is common with the current age of gaming, Riders Republic has its own in-game, virtual currency called Republic Coins. This can be purchased so that you can then buy items such as clothing and gear from the shop, but how much does the actual currency cost?
Republic Coins (RC) come in different bundles, so you can get a small amount for a relatively low real-world cost, or you can get a lot for a much larger cost. The prices are as follows:
- Base Pack (500 Republic Coins) – $4.99
- Bronze Pack (1050 RC) – $9.99
- Silver Pack (2300 RC) – $19.99
- Gold Pack (4200 RC) – $34.99
- Diamond Pack (6600 RC) – $49.99
You spend RC the same way as you spend Republic Bucks, which are earned in-game rather than purchased. Simply go to the shop and you can find new clothing to represent your style on the slopes.

This isn't the first time Ubisoft has implemented a virtual currency (VC) into their games. In Far Cry 5 you can use Silver Bars to purchase in-game items such as cars. Silver Bars might also be VC, however, the difference here is that Silver Bars can be found within Hope County, whereas Riders Coins cannot be found within Riders Republic.
It would be nice if there was a chance of happening across some coins in the Republic, as there are some nice items in the shop that can only be purchased by using coins instead of bucks.
Of course, this is common practice now, but it would be nice to be given the choice to grind rather than spend! We would recommend focusing on blitzing those trials and completing sponsor missions if you would rather not buy VC, as the sponsors have some nice clothing and gear as well!
