Rooftops & Alleys: The Parkour Game is making a splash, and I can’t help but be curious about what Radical Theory, ML MEDIA, and Shine Group have cooked up this time. Anyway, so there’s this new trailer out—if you play on PlayStation or Nintendo Switch, mark June 17 on your calendars. Although why that specific date? Who knows. Life’s random like that.
Alright, diving in—this game is a rollercoaster of adrenaline. Ever tried nailing a trick only to end up with a close embrace of the pavement? Yeah, that’s the vibe. You feel like you’re flying, defying gravity, and then—bam!—gravity reminds you who’s boss.
So, you’re not just hopping around solo. Nope. It’s you and possibly a gang of friends, exploring these sprawling maps, littered with hidden spots. Time trials await. Trick challenges are lurking. It sounds like every parkour enthusiast’s dream playground. Multiplayer? You bet. TAG, Capture the Flag, Trick Battles – or just free roaming like you’ve got all the time in the world. Kind of wish real life had such options, honestly.
And there’s something about a pigeon too. You have this feathery companion helping find new areas. Fast travel, route planning, the works. Honestly, the idea of a pigeon as a travel buddy intrigues me—I mean, why a pigeon? But then again, why not, right?
Customization is off the charts—over 100 options. You can deck out yourself and, yes, the pigeon. (Side note: Are we talking cool hats for the pigeon? I hope so.)
So, there it is. Rooftops, alleys, and more parkour madness than you can shake a stick at. Whether you’re in it for the tricks or just to run wild with friends, it’s shaping up to be a trip.
