Synth Riders News

We have a very special gift for you and if you were with us last “Synthmas” you will get to enjoy the holiday festivities once again!

Last year we have prepared the “Merry Synthmas” seasonal addition to say “thank you” for all the support we have received from you, and to celebrate the amazing Synth Riders community.

Here’s what we added last year and now you can enjoy it again on all platforms:

🎄 New song, “Carol of Bells” by Dance With The Dead - a synthwave/metal take on the classic carol from the players-favorite artist!

💪Daily Xmas themed Challenges, these can be found atop the leaderboards - most right tab will get you there!

❄️ Personalized platforms - you can now express your flair in multiplayer lobbies and in solo play with customizable colors and “decals” to decorate the platforms you stand on.

🎅 Winter theme - snow falls all across Spin City as Santa comes to visit its inhabitants, seasonal decorations can be spotted for a limited time!

👪Native language support for 6 new languages - Korean, Japanese, Chinese, French, German, and Spanish.

Get your funk’n’groove on with Synth Riders and the "Groovin’ Essentials" music pack, featuring Bruno Mars, Silk Sonic and Starcadian in a 24K-lineup of award-winning hits. Five stellar songs with strong roots in disco and funk, make this the perfect soundtrack while you dance ‘til dawn! The new collection will be available from December 15th.

“Groovin’ Essentials” Music Pack features five paid DLC songs:

• “24K Magic” - Bruno Mars
  
• “Runaway Baby” - Bruno Mars
  
• “Skate” - Silk Sonic (feat. Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak)
  
• “Manuals” - Starcadian
  
• “Supersymmetry” - Starcadian
  

Synth Riders sets this party off right with Bruno Mars’ chart-topping hits “24K Magic” and “Runaway Baby”, before you “Skate” back to the 70s with Silk Sonic, the Grammy award-winning collaboration between Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak. Then go back to the future with Starcadian in “Manuals” and “Supersymmetry”, with his unique blend of Synthwave meets Disco - in Space!

In a first for Synth Riders, our level creation team worked closely with dancer Phil “SACBxY” Tayag to choreograph this pack. As a choreographer for Bruno Mars and former founding member of the Jabbawockeez his insights make this pack unique! As an added bonus, players can dance along with the exclusive “SACBxY” choreography for “Manuals”, featured in our gameplay trailer!

To celebrate the launch of this pack, we’re adding a new stage “Liquid Disco” - it’s the hottest club in town to play Synth Riders, as featured in our trailer, and it’s available to every player for free! Step inside a stunning futuristic nightclub with a dancefloor that reacts to every song - available for both regular & spin modes.



“Bringing together Bruno Mars, Silk Sonic and Starcadian for this pack is a highlight for us - musically different, yet all sharing common influences from funk and groove. “Groovin’ Essentials” expresses both Synth Riders’ retro-future outlook and our dance-at-the-heart gameplay.” - Abraham Aguero (Creative Director, Kluge Interactive)

With the addition of “Groovin’ Essentials”, Synth Riders’ impressive soundtrack has surpassed 100 songs, with more than half of those included free with the game and 45 as optional DLC.

"Complete Your Set" bundle is also available for Synth Riders, check it out:
