Halfbrick Studios, a pioneer in early mobile gaming, is set to launch Jetpack Joyride Racing on mobile devices this June. If you fondly remember playing Jetpack Joyride on demonstration iPads at the Apple store, you're in for a treat with this kart racing spinoff. Scheduled for release on June 20th, Jetpack Joyride Racing invites players to race for dominance with iconic Halfbrick characters, including the beloved protagonist Barry Steakfries, each driving themed karts.
Excitingly, Halfbrick Studios has opened signups for a closed beta, giving eager fans the chance to try the game ahead of its official launch. If you're keen to be among the first to race, head over to the official Halfbrick Studios Discord to sign up for the closed beta. Pre-registration is also available for those looking to join the wider playerbase.
While Jetpack Joyride Racing shifts from jetpacks to karts, it aims to blend casual, pick-up-and-play fun with deeper mechanical complexity to satisfy both casual and hardcore kart racing enthusiasts. Though some might find it curious to see these iconic characters in karts rather than jetpacks, the game promises an engaging and fun spinoff experience. Keep an eye on Halfbrick Plus for more exciting updates on what's coming to the studio's subscription gaming service.
