Rollerdrome Now Available on Steam
Rollerdrome, an all-new, wildly imaginative third-person shooter-skater, is now available on PC via Steam.
Check out our Launch Cinematic Trailer:
Rollerdrome is our thrilling single-player shooter which brings together arena combat, fluid movement and technical tricks, to create “flow- state mayhem.” The game is set in 2030, in a world where the public are kept distracted from an increasingly sinister political movement by the violence and excess of a brutal new arena sport: Rollerdrome. Participants are chosen to compete in a series of gauntlets against the deadly House Players, combining eliminations with stylish tricks while completing numerous challenges as they try to survive.
Players step into the roller skates of Kara Hassan, a newcomer to the Rollerdrome tournament. As the mysteries of a corrupt tech giant unfold behind the scenes, Kara and the player will have to stay focused on their goal – climbing the ranks in hopes of becoming the next Rollerdrome champion.
Rollerdrome introduces a distinct retro-futuristic universe with a unique comic-book inspired art style. The soundtrack from Electric Dragon merges iconic 1970's sounds with contemporary, driving beats to create a heart-thumping backdrop to the carnage.
“Rollerdrome pays homage to extreme action sports games through a ‘70s lens of a classic third-person shooter. It plays at a break-neck pace and is sure to get people's hearts pumping," said Paul Rabbitte, Creative Director at Roll7. “I cannot wait to see players showing off their craziest skating and combat combos.”
Rollerdrome is available for digital download on PC via Steam. The game can be purchased at an introductory price of $19.79* on Steam.
Rollerdrome is rated M for Mature by the ESRB. For more information on Rollerdrome, subscribe on YouTube, follow us on Twitter, become a fan on Facebook, and visit www.RollerdromeGame.com.

For the creation of the soundtrack, the electronic artist immersed himself into the game’s 2030 setting as seen through a 1970’s retro-futuristic lens. “It’s been really refreshing to dive into the 70’s and I kind of don’t wanna come out,” the artist reveals.

Rollerdrome Reveal
Hello Steam community!
All of us at Roll7 and Private Division are super excited to announce that our newest game - the high-octane skater-shooter ‘Rollerdrome’ - will launch digitally on August 16th right here on Steam!
The critical and user response to our most recent game, OlliOlli World, has been amazing, and hot off the heels of that success, we’re really excited to share a new and very different style of skating game with you all. Rollerdrome mixes adrenaline-pumping combat with stylish roller skate tricks and grinds - it’s a game that will have you on the edge of your seat as you battle to survive the constant threats of the Rollerdrome. Set in a bleak dystopian retrofuture, this game will see you pit your skills against a wide array of heavily-armed enemies in the chilling game of Rollerdrome - a brutal blood-sport sponsored by the mysterious Matterhorn Corporation.
The game’s unique art style and comic book visuals combine with a fully original soundtrack to create a world that is as intriguing as it is menacing and, at times, brutal. 1970's textures and sounds combine with fast-paced modern day beats and cutting-edge production to provide a heart-thumping backdrop to the carnage.
You’ll be stepping into the skates of Rollerdrome competitor Kara Hassan, a newcomer to the sport whose only goal is to survive the menacing tournament; even as the machinations of the evil tech giant who runs the game unfold behind the scenes. With visceral moment-to-moment gameplay, an original and intense soundtrack, and a distinct comic-book inspired visual style, there’s a huge amount to enjoy - and fear - in this intense new title that brings a thrilling new edge to our critically acclaimed flow-state gameplay style.
Support Rollerdrome by wishlisting on Steam. We can’t wait to see you in the arena.
