Press release:
NEW YORK — October 13, 2026 — Independent developer Long Void Games and publisher Loopr Partners have announced that DIEATHLON, the fast-paced first-person action game that combines downhill skiing with intense shooter combat, will launch on Steam on December 10, 2026.

Armed with a shotgun and racing down a frozen mountain, players must fight off deadly creatures, dodge dangerous obstacles, and make split-second decisions without losing momentum. Every descent presents a choice of branching routes, with different environments, enemies, and hazards waiting along the way.

The mountains have plenty of surprises for those willing to stray from the main path. Hidden routes lead to new encounters, while towering leviathans lurk beneath frozen waters and narrow passages put players directly in the path of hostile creatures. Surviving the descent means learning the terrain, mastering movement, and knowing when to take a risk.

With branching paths, hidden encounters, and a variety of perks to discover, DIEATHLON encourages players to return to the mountain and see how much further they can get.

Key Features

High-Speed Downhill Action: Race down frozen mountain slopes where speed, precision, and quick reactions are essential.

Intense FPS Combat: Fight relentless monsters while navigating dangerous terrain at high speed.

Branching Routes: Choose between different paths, each featuring its own environments, hazards, and encounters.

Hidden Secrets: Venture off the main route to discover unexpected challenges and dangerous encounters.

Build-Defining Perks: Combine perks to shape your approach and create different builds with each run.

Replayable Runs: Explore alternate routes, experiment with different builds, and improve with every descent.

Competitive Global Leaderboard: Test your skill against other competitors from across the world to see if you can come out on top.

DIEATHLON will be participating in the upcoming steam next fest, allowing new and returning players to jump into the game and see how they stack up against the dangers that await them.
