“Synth Riders has brought together a wide variety of music genres over the years: EDM, Electroswing, punk, metal, soul, funk, 80s bangers, modern hits – now grunge, brit rock, and other 90s artists join the mix. We’ve always considered Synth Riders a musical discovery and enjoyment platform. It’s a different way to experience your music, just in time for the summer concert season.”- Arturo Perez, CEO of Kluge Interactive.

Synth Riders kicked off 2025 with the 80s Mixtape - Side B (featuring Queen, Toto, and Wham!), followed by the Kendrick Lamar HUMBLE. Experience ahead of Super Bowl LIX and the Current Waves music pack hitting all Mixed Reality platforms. The team isn’t letting up any time soon as summer concert season heats up.

Here are the challenges you’re up against:

• Random colors – Randomizes the 4 colors to confuse you.
  
• Invaderz – alien invaders target you with their missiles, punch them or dodge to avoid them
  
• Warp – make the jump to hyperspeed as the gameplay stretches, speeds up and then slows down again
  
• Embiggen – make the notes a lot bigger
  
• Minimize – make the notes a lot smaller
  
• Prismatic – toggles the prismatic modifier changing the notes to rainbows
  
• Vanish – toggles the vanish modifier, makes the notes invisible and turns the rails into nodes
  

We’ve handed the keys to T1M0, a new digital nemesis who exists purely to ruin your runs.

Can you survive the challenge of both gameplay Modifiers AND Power-Ups in our Challenges+?!
