Get ready for the wildest racing event in existence! Stampede: Racing Royale is a 60-player free-to-play battle royale kart racer. Combining competitive, item-fueled kart racing with the chaos of a battle royale, Stampede: Racing Royale throws 60 racers onto the same track to find the fastest and most furious drivers across the globe. Join the herd and outrun your opponents in Stampede Races. Deploy destructive weapons to take out the field in Stampede Battles. Survive the chop across three-round eliminators – only one champion will be crowned!

Stampede: Racing Royale is designed to grow and evolve around its community, and player feedback from the upcoming Steam Playtests this summer and Early Access later this year will shape its future. Regular seasons, limited-time events, and other live experiences mean there’s always something new for players to discover – and new cosmetic rewards to unlock to ensure your customized kart and racer stands out from the herd.

Stampede: Racing Royale is revving up its first Steam Playtest, starting today until 31 July 31st.

Registered players will get the chance to jump into the fast-paced, chaotic races and battles of Stampede: Racing Royale for the first time. Eight race maps and one battle arena will be available for players to test out, with over 50 customisation options on offer to stand out from the rest of the herd. More tracks, arenas, and customisation options are currently in development.

Stampede: Racing Royale is designed to evolve and grow around its community, and so this Playtest will contain early work-in-progress content. All players will receive a feedback form during the Playtest to provide their thoughts and suggestions, and highlight any bugs found in this early version of the game. As data is reset between each Playtest, progression and unlocked items will not carry over to future Playtests or Early Access.

More courses and customisation options are being prepared for the Early Access release later in 2023.
