• Get in the Game – This is not a simulation. The Run is easy to pick up and play, fast, fluid and above all else, fun. Signature dunks, monster blocks, sweet handles, tricks, logo 3s and more – we’re bringing our own flavor to gameplay, focused on style and substance, while still remaining grounded in street hoops.
• Bring Your Best Three & Hold Court – Build your squad from an ever-evolving roster of diverse, larger-than-life, legendary street ballers. Each has towering strengths and customized move sets to fit their specific playstyle, requiring you to really think about how you set your lineups.

• Multiplayer Meets Roguelike – Staying on the court requires more than just a great jumper – there’s levels to this. With strategic modifiers that impact every game and new players coming in to stop your streak, every Run is unique.
• A Handcrafted Hoops Experience – Play on some of the most legendary courts across the world with a uniquely stylized look and feel. From our characters to the courts, hand-keyed animations and everything in between, experience a truly handcrafted sports game for the first time ever. 

The Run is the debut game from Play by Play Studios, a team of seasoned developers united by their passion for games and love of sports.
