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 player-versus-player rivals, SpeedRunners 2: King of Speed lets you chase your own challenge. Compete in tournaments, create custom challenges, and climb the leaderboards, or host private lobbies for laid-back fun.
