Play now with Xbox Game Pass for console, PC, and cloud 

Rollerdrome Xbox & WIndows PC Launch Trailer

Private Division and Roll7 today announced that Rollerdrome, the imaginative third-person shooter-skater, is now available on Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC. Rollerdrome is a thrilling single-player game which pits you in intense arena combat. Melding fluid movement, visceral combat, and technical tricks, the title aims to create an experience described as “flow-state mayhem.” Can you battle your way to the top and become the next Rollerdrome champion? 

“Looking back to the conception of the game, we wanted Rollerdrome to be fast, fluid, and exciting – we were shown an early gameplay prototype by the Creative Director Paul Rabbitte, and seeing the potential, we quickly assembled an incredibly talented team to turn what was a promising concept into a visceral and stylish game,” said Tom Hegarty, Founder and Studio Head at Roll7. “I’m now super excited that we are able to share it, once more, with a whole new group of Xbox and PC players.” 

 

The game is set in 2030, you play the role of Kara Hassan, a new contender in the Rollerdrome tournament. In Rollerdrome, you face a series of gauntlets against the deadly House Players. By combining eliminations with stylish tricks, you will earn the favor of the destruction-loving crowd and, potentially, your freedom.  Strap on your skates and load your clip. Victory is survival.  

 

“We knew we had something special last year when Rollerdrome was first released, and that feeling was validated by critics and players from around the world. The overwhelming positive reaction fueled our development and helped us bring it to other platforms,” said Krystal Lim, Producer at Private Division. “Now, it is as if we are launching this game anew, and we are lucky to be able to share it with a whole new audience. 

 

Rollerdrome presents a unique, retro-futuristic universe beautifully drawn in a comic-book inspired art style. The game pays homage to extreme action sports games through a ‘70s lens of a classic third-person shooter. Not only does this graphic novel style capture the look and feel of this world, but it also reinforces the visceral combat in a clear and discernable manner. The bold color palette and character outlines draw your eyes to focus on the next incoming threat, direction to turn, or the necessary goal – even when a massive rocket explosion or spray of bullets races towards you.   

 

Rollerdrome is developed by Roll7, the BAFTA and multi-award-winning London-based studio famous for making beloved and remarkable games like OlliOlli, OlliOlli 2: Welcome to Olliwood, OlliOlli World, Laser League, and NOT A HERO.

“We couldn’t be happier to finally bring the vision we’ve always had for the OlliOlli series to life with this ambitious new evolution,” said Simon Bennett, Co-CEO at Roll7. “We wanted to embrace the weird, wonderful, and diverse side of skateboarding culture with a game that’s all about going on a road trip with your friends, finding crazy spots, pulling mad tricks, and most of all, skating everything in sight!”

 

“We are thrilled working alongside Roll7 to push the OlliOlli series forward with a spectacular new art direction while staying true to its signature flow-state gameplay,” said Michael Worosz, Executive Vice President and Head of Private Division. “Flow-state is achieved through that perfect equilibrium of focus and relaxation – OlliOlli World boosts this unique feeling to unreached heights through an intuitive concept and perfected, ultra-tight controls.”

OlliOlli World marks the third entry in the beloved OlliOlli series from Roll7, the BAFTA and multi-award-winning London based independent studio famous for re-defining genres and creating remarkable games like OlliOlli, OlliOlli 2: Welcome to Olliwood, Laser League, and NOT A HERO.

 

OlliOlli World will launch digitally this winter during Take-Two’s fiscal year 2022 on PlayStation®5 and PlayStation®4 system, the Xbox Series XIS and Xbox One consoles, PC, and Nintendo Switch™ system. OlliOlli World is not yet rated by the ESRB. For more information on OlliOlli World, subscribe on YouTube, follow us on Twitter, become a fan on Facebook, and visit OlliOlliGame.com.
