SpeedRunners 2: King Of Speed is a fast-paced platformer featuring totally new challenges and the same high-stakes action fans love – now with up to eight players joining the fray.

The ultimate competitive platformer is back!

Outrun, outjump and outsmart your rivals in cutthroat online and local races for up to eight players. Master your movement, conquer expertly crafted maps, use powerful pick-ups, and swing around with a grappling hook. Run like your life depends on it – just don't get knocked off-screen!

The original SpeedRunners, developed by DoubleDutchGames and officially released in 2016 and has grown into a party-game hit with a thriving community, and over 10 million players since launch. Dubbed the ‘Mario Kart of 2D platformers,’ it still has an active tournament scene going strong today.


SpeedRunners was the game that kickstarted tinyBuild's publishing journey 12 years ago and we are thrilled to breathe new life into this timeless franchise,” said Alex Nichiporchik, CEO of tinyBuild. “SpeedRunners 2: King Of Speed will take everything to the next level while preserving what made the original so great and memorable. We’ve even brought in the incredibly talented team at DoubleDutch to consult on the game to make sure of it. A huge thank you to our incredible community for supporting the game over the years. Things will be moving fast from here. It’s time for a speedy run!”

Key Features:

  • 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 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 retrofuture 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, open and close pathways, and more 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 is coming to PC (Steam) in 2025, followed by PS5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch in 2026.
