About RAD: Ascension

RAD: Ascension is a game tagged Racing, Precision Platformer and Robots by RUNE Entertainment, launching on Steam in Q2 2027. The quietest week ahead for games like it starts Nov 23. The Steam games most like it include Ball Race Party, DriveCraft and RAZED.

Some runs you race the clock. Some you just flow. RAD is a movement game built around speed and experimentation. Pump, jump, swing and glide through neon courses, race leaderboard ghosts, shave milliseconds off every run, and play it all to your own music. Instant restarts; one more run, every time.
