Key Features
- Get in the Game – This is not a simulation. The Run is easy to pick up and play, fast, fluid and above all else, fun.

- Multiplayer Meets Roguelike – Staying on the court takes more than just a great jumper—there’s levels to this. With court conditions, strategic modifiers and drops impacting every game and new players coming in to stop your streak, every Run is unique.
- A Handcrafted Hoops Experience – Play on some of the most legendary courts across the world with a uniquely stylized look and feel. From our characters to the courts, hand-keyed animations and everything in between, experience a truly handcrafted sports game for the first time ever.
