In February, a fan of the publisher tinyBuild reached out to the company and asked if there was any chance of SpeedRunners coming to the Switch. Surprisingly, CEO Alex Nichiporchik responded, saying the game would be coming to the system.
After waiting months for an official announcement, tinyBuild has now confirmed the competitive multiplayer platformer for up to four players is finally making its way to the hybrid platform. This announcement was delivered via the official tinyBuild Twitter account:
SpeedRunners was originally released on PC in 2016 and requires players to jump, duck and dive through multiple different courses while shooting items at one another and trying to finish in first place. It's fast and frantic and includes both online and local options. Take a look at the gameplay in the video below:
While we wait for additional information such as a release date and price, let us know if you would be interested in playing this game on your Switch.

I've been waiting 2 years for this. Getting this for sure!
Day one purchase.
NOICE! Hoping it will have both online and local play!
Would be cool if we could play couch vs couch online!
Awesome, this game’s a great time with friends, can’t wait to finally get it on Switch.
I've put hours into my PC copy! So excited to finally have this game on the Switch!
I just hope the port is better than the xbox one version, because of aweful online lag ... basically no online game possible - no NAT problems, constant 75mbits <- only speedrunners had problems on my xbox. i loved to play the game on my linux pc system - no problems there with the same internet connection.
let's hope they'll release a demo ... i don't need another "mario maker 2" lag - fest (even with usb lan adapter mostly unplayable hahaha) - mario kart, warframe and other games - no problems there ...
Sweet! I remember thinking this would be a great Switch release when I played it on PS4 or whatever. Fun game!
Will definitely buy on day one. I've had so much crazy fun playing this on a friend's XBOX, but friends move away sometimes. I need this.
Gameplay and graphics that are very reminiscent of Runbow. Weird that one of the two didn't go with a different look. I'd buy Runbow again to have it on Switch. That game was great. This looks a little more complex with the grappling hooks and such, which could be even more fun, as long as it's easy for anyone to pick up and learn for a party game.
if i had this game, it would be the scout all the way.
Depends on what they charge for it. I have a feeling it'll be a ridiculous amount in comparison to the length of time its been out and what its been discounted to in previous sales
