Press release:
Dueren, Germany – March 16th, 2022.
The Sweden-based indie games publisher/developer Headup and Germany-based indie games developer Aerial_Knight, are today very excited and happy to announce that their 3D Runner “Aerial_Knight’s Never Yield” is coming to iOS and Android devices on March 30th, 2022.

This mobile version of the artistically exquisite narrative 3D runner will include the treasure trove of content recently added to PC and console versions of the game in “Da Update”. The free update will also be available for PlayStation and Switch on the same day.

Recently selected as one of 2021’s games of the year by GamesIndustry.biz and Austin Creed for Giant Bomb, Aerial_Knight’s Never Yield is an accalimed 3D runner set in a sci-fi version of Detroit. The game tells the story of Wally and the sinister evidence he has uncovered with the potential to change his city forever. You will be forced to run for your life as you jump and slide to avoid upcoming obstacles with style to the incredible soundtrack created by Danime-Sama, showcasing the authentic sounds of Detroit artists along with the vocal talents of artists of color from across the globe.

The mobile version of Aerial_Knight’s Never Yield launches with “Da Update” included, delivering huge improvements based on feedback to the original release. The update means the game launches with new bonus levels, new music, a brand new endless mode and the introduction of leaderboards to allow you to compete for high scores.

Level and story updates aimed at adding refinement and intrigue to the core game, including a new post-credits ending, mean speeding through this sci-fi version of Detroit is slicker and more satisfying than ever before.

“I’m really excited to bring Aerial_Knight’s Never Yield to mobile ” said creator Neil Jones, also known as Aerial Knight.

“I’ve always wanted to bring this game to as many people as possible, so the game coming to mobile is a great way to do that. With all the additional content and improvements added in Da Update there at launch, mobile players are going to get the game at its absolute best”.
