Those magnificent men in their... Adidas trainers. They go up tiddly-up, up, they come down tiddly-down, down, they can fly through the air with their feet off the ground. It's Parkour, free-running, pretending to be Spider-Man or whatever you choose to call it. Whatever you do call it, though, it's a dangerous pastime. Fortunately, Ubisoft's giving you the opportunity to have a crack at it while keeping your feet planted firmly on the ground.
Parkour, originated in France, fact fans, is the art of treating a city as an obstacle course. It's all about performing death-defying acrobatic feats through the maze of a concrete jungle. It's as much a philosophy as it is a sport, challenging 'Traceurs' perceptions of what a city is and how we interact with it.
In Free Running, you'll need to master over 50 moves in order to gain the prestigious title 'King of Parkour.' Scary sounding tricks such as 'Kong Vaults', 'Pharaoh Climbs', 'Rail Split Vaults' and 'Vertical Wall Runs' will be your bread and butter as you defy death in your bid for victory.
You'll come up against 60 challenges spread over 10 different levels, and be able to choose from nine different single and multiplayer modes.
