Survival racing game Distance will launch for PC via Steam and DRM-free via the game’s official website on September 18 for $24.99, developer Refract Studios announced. It has been available via Steam Early Access for $19.99 since December 2014.
While the PlayStation 4 version of Distance was not dated, a developer blog from June 29 noted that the PlayStation 4 build currently “looks nearly identical to the PC build,” but “there’s still quite a bit of work to do” in terms of supporting features like leaderboards with replay uploading / downloading, and the various technical certification requirements. A developer blog posted alongside today’s announcement mentioned that Refract Studios will wrap up “the few remaining tasks required for the PS4” after launching the PC version.
Distance is an atmospheric racing platformer that combines futuristic arcade racing with parkour, and challenges players to survive a deadly, mysterious, neon-drenched city by jumping, rotating, and flying.
Here is an overview of the game, via Refract Studios:
Distance News Facts

• The game is a spiritual successor to the multi-award winning Nitronic Rush, created by Refract’s founders. Nitronic Rush has been downloaded more than three million times.

In Distance roads are treacherous with obstacles around every corner. Instead of doing laps on a loop, survive to the end in the quickest time. The cars have abilities that not only allow them to drive on the track, but upside down and on buildings and walls. Players can also fly to discover new shortcuts and paths. Take on the roads alone, or in multiplayer with friends.

Rune Enters Early Access September 2018
Vikings, rejoice.
Rune will enter Steam Early Access this September. For those of you keeping track, that’s next month. In addition to the brutal new trailer below, you can add the game to your wishlist on Steam today. (Odin favors those who wishlist Rune.)
We’re eager to get more players into the game and continue to build Rune with the community during Early Access. Until then, here’s a message from our fearless leader.
“Rune is a brutal and challenging game set during the Norse apocalypse. We designed it to appeal to fans of the original but also modernized the design for new fans. We hope that all the blood, heart, and soul we put in the game shows as you play and dismember your enemies to take their blood, heart, and soul.” – Chris Rhinehart
Don’t forget that Closed Beta continues this Saturday, August 18. Servers will be live from 12:00 pm CDT to 4:00 pm CDT. Space is available on a first come, first served basis.
