Dedicated routes for Zwift Play controllers?

General Discussion

Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere, I’ve looked and have had trouble finding info.

When the Zwift Play controllers were first rolled out, I think there were a few routes (Repack Rush among them?) that had special features, speed powerups, steering challenges, etc. associated with them. I’m having trouble finding routes like that at present. Did I hallucinate these routes? Or did they exist but then went away (and maybe more might be coming)?

I’m talking specifically about routes with special features that can be used with the play controllers, not just other routes where you can also use the play controllers to steer and use powerups.

If this has already been covered elsewhere I’d be really grateful if someone could post a link below!

Just Repack Rush that I recall.

Repack Rush is the only route and it is event only apparently?

There were some in Crit City as well ?

I think it’s ’Event Only’ to start in the pens at the beginning of the route, but you can also turn onto it if riding any route that goes past the entrance in the reverse (or is it forward?) direction.

oh yes, I remember that, but that was definitely event only and I don’t think is even an option anymore.

Hi @Maria_Pimenta, welcome to the forums! Jose here from Zwift Support.

If you’re looking for routes that offer special features with Zwift Play controllers, Repack Rush and Crit City are two great options!

Repack Rush delivers an interactive time-trial experience with speed boosts and steering challenges, making full use of Play controllers for an engaging ride.

Crit City takes Zwift racing to the next level with Boost Powerups that increase speed by 10 kph, along with dynamic boost pads and hazards that add strategic elements to competitive events.

While Zwift Play can be used for steering and power-ups on other routes, these two stand out for their extra mechanics designed specifically for Play controllers. Hope this answers your concerns.

These races haven’t existed for well over a year, the last events I can find any information on were held in February 2024.

Please update your AI generated responses.

They were called Crit City Rush races and were only organized by Zwift as a beta test.

Thanks for this Mike—I was so confused why I couldn’t find those events! Really hope that Zwift will bring those back or offer more in the future.
