Play by Play Studios announced that their 3-on-3 street basketball game, NBA THE RUN, will be available in June for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC through Steam.
You can now sign up for the first closed beta test of the game on PC through Steam. The test will run from May 1st at 12 PM Pacific Time / 3 PM Eastern Time until 3 PM Pacific Time / 6 PM Eastern Time.
Here is an overview of the game, via Play by Play Studios:
NBA THE RUN centers around the Run the World Tournament, a four-round, head-to-head competition for three-player teams. This tournament takes place on famous streetball courts globally, culminating in a championship game at one of four unique final locations. The winning team will earn the Run the World trophy and ultimate bragging rights.
There are three game modes coming at launch, including:
- Knockout Squads – Play on a Squad of three. You control 1 player on the Squad, fill out your team with friends / other players and take on the competition.
- Knockout Solos – Build your own Team of three. You control your team and go head to head against other players and their teams of three.
- Knockout Friends – Your own Private Tournament. Play alone against the AI, crew up with friends against the AI, or go head to head against anyone you want to invite in (up to 48 players at Launch).
I’m so hyped for this game! You’ll get to play as over 30 real NBA stars, plus five awesome streetball legends. What’s really cool is that each player feels totally different – they’ve clearly put a lot of work into making everyone unique. And the gameplay? It’s super fast and smooth, with amazing online play thanks to some clever tech that keeps everything perfectly in sync. Every move, every dunk, everything just feels right for everyone playing online!
NBA THE RUN is the debut game from Play by Play Studios, a small team of experienced game developers. These developers have worked on major sports game franchises and are passionate about both sports and gaming. They’re carefully crafting the game to capture the spirit of classic sports titles while appealing to modern players.
