Overview

Radical Heights Overview

Radical Heights is a third person Battle Royale inspired by Fortnite, but with an over-the-top '80s aesthetic. Take part in action packed matches involving up to 100 players where the objective is to be the last one standing. Guns and other gear collected along the way help you achieve victory, but the most important resource in Radical Heights is cold hard cash. Cash players collect is saved from game to game, allowing dedicated players to purchase weapons from various vending machines scattered across the map right from the start. Radical Heights also allows players to ride bicycles and compete in cycling race events during the match!

Development History / Background:

Radical Heights is the second title developed by Cliff Bleszinski's studio Boss Key Productions. Bleszinski is best known for his work as design director at Epic Games, particularly for the Unreal and Gears of War franchises. Radical Heights was first revealed on April 9, 2018, just a day before its Steam Early Access launch date of April 10, 2018. This rapid reveal/release schedule was in stark contrast to Boss Key's first title, LawBreakers which took 3 years to go from reveal to release. Radical Heights is unique in that entered Early Access in a highly unfinished state, especially for a title produced by a well funded studio.

Radical Heights shut down on May 14, 2018, a mere month after release.
