About this game

Iridium Runners is a futuristic racing game for PlayStation 2, released on February 19, 2008. Competitors race on hazard-filled tracks while using unique running skills, attacks, weapons, and scattered power-ups to gain an advantage.

The game features 20 selectable characters, with some runners and tracks unlocked through progression. Players can also choose a “pod” sidekick to complement their strategy. Races support up to five CPU opponents in single-player, while offline multiplayer includes Deathmatch and Team modes, with up to four players in split screen.

  • Single Race: Individual races across the game’s environments.
  • Cup: A competition spanning multiple races.
  • Championship: A longer-form racing challenge.
