Choice Provisions announces Runner3 for Nintendo Switch, arriving later this year

Choice Provisions is excited to announce that Runner3—the latest entry in the BIT.TRIP series—will be arriving later this year exclusively on the Nintendo Switch.

Runner3 follows the continuing adventures of Commander Video and all his creepy friends. Their arch-rival, the Timbletot, is determined as ever to rid the multiverse of all its love and happiness. Commander Video, a lover if ever there were one, refuses to let this happen. He’s ready to jump, double-jump, wall-jump, slide-jump, underwear-jump, slide, kick, float, fly, and dance his way to victory, all across a medley of thrilling, challenging, and joyous levels!

The rhythm-music gameplay established in BIT.TRIP RUNNER and Runner2 remains firmly intact, but players can still expect a variety of new additions to the series, including:

  • Branching paths!
  • Item shops!
  • Hero quests!
  • Vehicles!
  • New gameplay modes!
  • New retro challenges!
  • New playable characters!
  • New character moves!
  • New dance moves!

In addition, Runner3 will take advantage of some of the more unique features of the Nintendo Switch, which we’ll be talking about more in the near future. Stay tuned!

Gaming since the Atari 2600, I enjoy the weirdness in games counting Densha De Go and RC De Go as my favourite titles of all time. I prefer gaming of old where buying games from a shop was a thing, Being social in person was a thing. Join me as I attempt to adapt to this new digital age!
