tinyBuild and Fair Play Labs have confirmed a release date for SpeedRunners 2: King of Speed, which is in development for Nintendo Switch.
More than 10 million players have sprinted and leapt their way through the original SpeedRunners, and now, the fast-paced multiplayer platformer returns with new challenges and the same high-stakes action that the experience has become known for.
You will be challenged to become a master of fast-paced movement and reflexes, blasting through uniquely crafted maps as fast as possible while leaving your friends and foes in the dust. Be on the lookout for booster pads, pickups, obstacles, and more to get the leg up on your opponents. Get ahead by any means necessary, even if you have to play dirty: knock your rivals off-screen with traps, missiles, freeze rays and even a golden grappling hook that lets you yoink players in front of you!
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
The Next Generation of SpeedRunners: SpeedRunners 2 captures the depth, thrill and fluidity of the original game for a new era, introducing vibrant high-definition graphics and improved netcode for an incredible competitive platforming experience.
Gotta Go Fast: Choose your character from a cast of eccentric superheroes, both returning and new, and face off in intense races for up to eight players, local and online, across beautiful tracks inspired by the retro-future superhero utopia of the 1960s.
Master Competitive Platforming: Run, jump, slide and swing to victory by any means necessary! Learn the layouts of precisely tuned maps, use booster pads and pick-ups, wall jump and grapple, and open and close pathways to gain the edge.
Be Fast And Furious: Ruin friendships and make split-second decisions to become the King of Speed! Knock rivals off-screen and eliminate your foes with powerful pick-ups like missiles, traps, freeze rays, and a grappling hook that pulls runners in front of you.
Run As You Are: Accessible to newcomers yet rewarding for die-hard PvP rivals, SpeedRunners 2 lets you chase your own challenge. Compete in tournaments, create custom challenges, and climb the leaderboards, or host private lobbies for laid-back fun.
SpeedRunners 2: King of Speed will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 3 September 2026.
