Hyde Run: Global Release of High-Speed Endless Runner Game!

If you're passionate about Japanese music, you're no stranger to HYDE, the iconic artist who has graced stages at Madison Square Garden and sold over 40 million records. Today marks the global launch of "Hyde Run," an exciting endless runner game centered around this legendary musician. Initially released in Japan, the game is now accessible to fans worldwide, thanks to the efforts of developer and publisher Phoenixx. This game offers a unique way for global fans to immerse themselves in HYDE's illustrious career through a gameplay experience brimming with references to his music and performances.

Move, Jump or Slide in Hyde Run

In "Hyde Run," players take on the role of HYDE, navigating through a dynamic blend of a concert stage and a futuristic version of Tokyo. The gameplay involves a high-speed chase across Neo Tokyo, where you dodge obstacles, perform wall-runs past vibrant billboards, and collect musical notes. The game's atmosphere is charged with a distinctive neon-and-noise vibe, infused with the energy of a guitar solo, setting it apart from typical endless runners. As you dash through the cityscape, you can pick up various power-ups, including magnets that attract notes and barriers that shield you from damage.

Before embarking on each run, players can select items to enhance their performance. Options include a "Note Gain" to boost note collection or a "Barrier" to avoid pesky obstacles. Additionally, you can gather crystals which unlock exclusive HYDE-themed outfits and room decor from his extensive career. Special voice clips from HYDE himself are accessible by unlocking the Microphone Stand.
