Halfbrick Studios, a pioneer in early mobile gaming, is set to launch Jetpack Joyride Racing on mobile devices this June. Best known for the iconic Jetpack Joyride, Halfbrick is expanding its universe with this exciting kart racing spinoff. Players can look forward to racing in themed karts as beloved characters like Barry Steakfries and other Halfbrick favorites vie for supremacy on the track.
The game is scheduled for release on June 20th. In anticipation, Halfbrick Studios has opened signups for a closed beta, allowing eager fans to get an early taste of the action. If you're keen to experience Jetpack Joyride Racing before its official launch, head over to the official Halfbrick Studios Discord to sign up for the closed beta. Pre-registration is also open for the broader player base, ensuring you don't miss out on the fun.
Jetpack Joyride Racing aims to blend casual, pick-up-and-play gameplay with deeper mechanics that will appeal to hardcore kart racing enthusiasts. While the shift from jetpacks to karts might raise eyebrows—couldn't we still drift corners with jetpacks and use barriers to stay on track?—this spinoff promises to deliver a thrilling and engaging experience. It's a testament to the enduring legacy of Jetpack Joyride in mobile gaming.
