R42

R42 is a fast-paced, non-linear VR racing game set on the highways of a digital world. You race for the best time on each track alongside other players and digital natives, finding routes through a space where the laws of reality do not apply.

Find your route

Rather than following a set course through checkpoints, you travel across any highway surface you can reach. To complete a race, you must traverse enough of the track and return to the finish line; the winner is determined by the fastest route. You need both the skill to execute a route and the creativity to find it. You can pass through obstacles, use ceilings as floors and take shortcuts. In dataspace, falling down is the same as falling back in from above, and its highways repeat infinitely so you can always return to where you started.

Races and stages

Each stage supports 42 simultaneous racers, including in multiplayer. The game has 16 stages, each with two speed settings. You can join or leave a race whenever you want, play at your own pace and adjust the game length; the winner is decided by the fastest lap.

Replays and controls

You can record replays of your best tricks and times as Ghosts and share them on the Steam Workshop. Several control schemes are available, including gamepad play and VR controllers, whether you are sitting or standing.
