Stylish-Looking Basketball Game With Hand-Drawn Art Revealed, Looks Incredible

Independent game developer Play by Play Studios has announced its formation and revealed its first project, which is a character-driven 3v3 basketball game that celebrates the sport and its culture.

The Run: Got Next is the name of the game, and it aims to be easy to pick up and play, but also deep enough for people looking for a challenge. The full-court 3v3 game bends the rules of real basketball “in the name of fun,” but is not a full-on arcade-style basketball game. Take a look for yourself in the trailer below.

Now Playing: The Run: Got Next – Official Announcement Teaser Trailer

Players assemble a roster of players, each with their unique move-sets, with the aim of building a winning streak and holding court. The game has different courts to play on, and each favors a different type of playstyle. There is also an in-game shop featuring items, abilities, sponsors, and shoes that players can acquire, though whether or not this is a real-money shop is unknown.

The Run: Got Next aims for a “hand-crafted” art style with a stylized look. The game has hand-painted textures, cel-shaded characters, and hand-keyed animations.

Some of the people at Play by Play Studios worked on titles like NBA Street, Battlefield, Madden, God of War, Apex Legends, Dead Space, and League of Legends.

The Run: Got Next has been in development for more than two years already and is aiming to launch in 2025 on Steam, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
