Betrayed by his closest friend.
The one he loves taken from him.
Only one minute remains.
Race through countless deadly trials and reach the end of the Underworld!
Ultimate-Speed × Hardcore Runner
Cut Down Enemies. Keep Dawn at Bay.
Hinata, a shrine maiden, has been taken by Hayate’s closest friend.
Unless Hayate stops it, Hinata will be offered as a sacrifice in the Dawn Rite.
Hayate, a Karasu Tengu, reclaims lost time by cutting down his enemies. He races through the Underworld to stop the Dawn Rite.
High-Speed Action Through the Underworld!
Use Overdrive to accelerate in an instant, then unleash the deadly Gale Rush to cut down entire groups of enemies.
Freely combine more than ten different actions as you fight and race through each stage.
Slash. Accelerate. Leap. Chain a wide variety of techniques together, master your own action style, and set the fastest time through the Underworld!
A Beautiful Yet Treacherous Underworld
The richly detailed Underworld is filled not only with grotesque enemies, but also with deadly traps.
At times, the environment itself will block Hayate’s path—and take his life.
Yet as long as time remains, he can rise and challenge the path again, no matter how many times he falls.
Learn from every failure, memorize the way forward, and overcome countless brushes with death!
Growth and Blessings Transform Every Run
Use the Soul Stones earned by clearing stages to develop your skill tree.
At the beginning of each stage, spend the Gold Magatama you have collected to purchase the Blessings of your choice.
At the start of every run, you can also obtain a special upgrade known as a Primal Blessing.
Some Blessings fundamentally change the way you fight. Take on the Underworld again and again, discovering new strategies with every run.
Why did Hayate’s closest friend betray him?
Why was Hinata chosen as the sacrifice?
And what exactly is Akegarasu?
Reach the end of the Underworld and witness the fate of these three—and the truth behind their story.
