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

If you're a fan of Japanese music, you're likely familiar with HYDE, who has graced the stage at Madison Square Garden and sold over 40 million records. Today marks the global launch of a new endless runner game, Hyde Run, featuring HYDE as the central character. Initially launched in Japan, the game is now accessible to players worldwide. The developer and publisher, Phoenixx, aims to celebrate HYDE's musical legacy through a game packed with nods to his illustrious career.

Move, Jump, or Slide in Hyde Run

In Hyde Run, you'll experience parkour across a concert stage and through a futuristic rendition of Tokyo. Playing as HYDE, you'll embark on a high-speed chase through Neo Tokyo, evading obstacles, wall-running past illuminated billboards, and collecting musical notes. The game's atmosphere diverges from the typical endless runner with its neon-infused, guitar-solo-driven energy, offering a unique blend of excitement and fan-centric details.

As you navigate the city, you can pick up various power-ups, such as magnets that attract notes or barriers to protect you from damage. Before starting your run, you can equip items for a boost. Use a Note Gain to increase your note collection or a Barrier to avoid tripping over obstacles. Additionally, you can gather crystals to unlock exclusive HYDE outfits and room items, as well as voice clips through the Microphone Stand feature.

More to Explore in the Game

Hyde Run also lets you personalize HYDE's room with memorabilia spanning the last 20 years, including tour gear and obscure references. Hidden items unlock additional messages and voice notes from HYDE, enriching the fan experience. Until June 10th, 2025, you can grab limited-time content, including the THE LAST ROCKSTARS Costume Set, which replicates HYDE's iconic look from a music video, complete with matching ROCK Furniture like leopard prints, vintage trunks, and stage spotlights.

For a more relaxed summer vibe, there's the Bat Jinbei Costume Set, and for a traditional Japanese aesthetic, you can opt for a furniture set featuring bamboo, bonboris, and a wind chime resembling HYDE's Edyh character. Download Hyde Run from the Google Play Store and dive into the world of HYDE.
