Lanesplit

Throw caution to the wind and blaze between traffic in a white-knuckle race across the asphalt. Anticipate every turn across multiple looping locales. Bullet past pedestrian traffic through downtown highways, twisting mountain turnpikes, and ocean-front roads around the world. An all gas, no brakes approach can lead to victory, but the difference between finishing in first and a fatal crash is mere inches apart. Reach flow state as surroundings become a blur at breakneck speeds. Flirt with death while zooming between traffic consisting of 18-wheelers, lane-switching sedans, and other vehicles obeying traffic laws.

Mind the weather before selecting from fifteen distinct sportbikes with physics-accurate attributes. Conquer dry pavement with maximum top speed and nimble steering, and focus on traction and stopping power to ensure survival on slippery roads soaked with rain. Maneuver through mazes of traffic during Rush Hour mode, or cruise empty highways in Zen mode. Maximize aura with customizable clothing and helmet options. Feel the intensity of breaking land speed records as a drum and bass-fuelled soundtrack rises in volume alongside the speedometer and comes to a screeching halt with every crash.

  • Multiplayer Mode: Ride solo or with friends. The faster you ride, the higher your score multiplier, with the biggest rewards coming from high speeds and close, skillful lane splitting. Crashes or driving too slowly will reset your current points to zero with your highest points being saved to the global leaderboards.
  • Multiple Weather and Traffic Settings: Conquer dry roads with ease by selecting bikes with high top speed and agile handling, and maximize traction and stopping power during wet-weather rides. Test riding reflexes during Rush Hour mode, and become one with the road in Zen mode, where you have the road all to yourself.
  • Become King of the Road: As breakneck speeds turn the world into a blur, enter a flow state as LANESPLIT's drum & bass soundtrack increases in volume as you accelerate (and comes to a crashing halt when colliding with traffic).
