Urukazi Map Release [2022]

Did you hear? Urukazi is our newest map expansion on Makuri Islands and it’s available now!

“Urukazi” is the combination of two Okinawan words – “uru” means “shore,” and “kazi” means “breeze.” The combination of the two words is meant to evoke the serene, untouched character of the Southern Japanese archipelago. On the roads of Urukazi, you’ll find a Zwifty interpretation of those islands’ scenery as you ride pavement, gravel, and a new type of surface not yet found anywhere else on Zwift. Want to learn more about Urukazi, check out the FAQ.

Not only do you get this awesome expansion but a chance to earn eight new badges with eight new routes (cycling only)…

If you haven’t already, make sure you are registered for Tour of Makuri Islands for a chance at the amazing unlocks and the opportunity to earn those badges at the same time.

Seems to be a bug with the default camera view. 2 works, 1 is too close in.

Edit: 2 is now the same

Gutting that you can’t fly off that first rock. Whichever Dev put that there is cruel. :grin:

Lots of graphics shimmering on the little hillside community in the distance as you approach the sprint banner.

Do you already have version 3.41.1 installed?

Please check that you have Companion app v3.41.1 installed. It is the version that supports Urukazi.

It’s come to our attention that there are some aggressively loud seagulls lurking in some of the Urukazi routes. The seagull sounds can’t be turned off in Zwift game v1.31, but that glitch will be fixed as soon as possible.

Forewarned is forearmed in case you Zwift while in a work meeting.

From the pictures it looks beautiful, but I’m quite disappointed.
The small amount of tarmac is sad but more disappointing is that there is no new climb :frowning: We have Alpe du Zwift and from time to time we are allowed to ride up to Ventoux … How about some new climbs? Stelvio? Madeleine? Teide?

Mt Fuji is extremely obvious in the background… Just saying.

Plus 1. Camera angles are all wrong.

Teide? They’d have to call it Teideous as absolutely no-one would ever ride it at that length.

It’s pretty clear Mt Fuji is coming at some point.

hmmm. Was working for me. Maybe a Windows thing?
