Runbow is a fast paced, action party game with a never before seen color mechanic.

Runbow features an eye-catching color mechanic that has racers brawl amongst each other while objects and platforms appear or disappear based on the continually changing background color.

Up-to nine players race against each other as platforms and obstacles appear and disappear when the background changes vibrant colors. Players can sprint against each other in Run, or go head-to-head in one of Runbow’s six additional modes, including Arena, King of the Hill, ColourMaster and The Bowhemoth.

13AM Games and Headup Gamesannounce the colorful racing chaos of award-winning party game Runbow is coming to PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch worldwide on April 24 digitally.

The game will also be hitting retail a bit later on June 14 as a "Deluxe Edition," which will include all DLCs and nice physical goodies to be announced at a later stage.

Runbow features an eye-catching color mechanic that has racers brawl amongst each other while objects and platforms appear or disappear based on the continually changing background color. All multiplayer modes can be played by up to 9 players simultaneously online, while it features 8-player local multiplayer madness on Nintendo Switch as well as 4 player local chaos on PlayStation 4. Besides that, the game features a bevy of content in its single-player modes that will test the skills and minds of any seasoned platformer.
