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

If you're a fan of Japanese music, you're likely familiar with HYDE, the iconic artist who has graced Madison Square Garden and sold over 40 million records. Now, he's stepping into the digital realm as the main character in a thrilling new endless runner game, "Hyde Run," which has just launched globally.

Originally released in Japan, "Hyde Run" is now accessible to players worldwide, thanks to its developer and publisher, Phoenixx. The game offers a unique way for global fans to immerse themselves in HYDE's musical journey through gameplay filled with nods to his illustrious career.

Move, Jump, or Slide in Hyde Run

In "Hyde Run," you'll navigate through a dynamic environment that blends a concert stage with the futuristic cityscape of Neo Tokyo. As HYDE, you'll engage in a high-speed chase, dodging obstacles, performing wall-runs past vibrant billboards, and collecting musical notes.

The game's atmosphere stands out with its neon-and-noise aesthetic, infused with the energy of guitar solos and HYDE-specific fan service, setting it apart from typical endless runners. As you race through the city, you can grab various power-ups like magnets to attract notes or barriers to shield you from damage.

Before starting your run, you can equip items to enhance your performance. Use a Note Gain to boost your note collection or a Barrier to avoid tripping over obstacles. Additionally, collecting crystals allows you to unlock exclusive outfits and room items from HYDE's career, along with voice clips from the artist himself via the Microphone Stand.

The THE LAST ROCKSTARS Costume Set dresses HYDE in his iconic music video look, complete with matching ROCK Furniture like leopard prints, vintage trunks, and stage spotlights. Alternatively, the Bat Jinbei Costume Set offers a relaxed, summer-festival vibe, complemented by a Japanese-style furniture set featuring bamboo, bonboris, and a wind chime shaped like HYDE's Edyh character.
