12th November 2025 - UK-based indie studio Archangel Software is delighted to announce their sophomore title Highway Noir is releasing in early 2026 to PC via Steam. Highway Noir combines high speed driving gameplay with a magnetic neo-noir aesthetic and a story of betrayal, revenge, and moral choices.
Players take on the role of a freelance driver for hire, taking dangerous contracts from the city’s criminal underworld. Take the wheel on high-speed chases, narrow escapes, and risky deliveries while earning cash and uncovering a deadly plot within the Major Crimes Agency.
You were once the best driver the Major Crimes Agency had. Then a mission went wrong, and they let you take the fall. Now you ride for the highest bidder, tearing through a rainsoaked city where every deal comes with a price.
Every job drags you deeper into chaos, crime, and corruption, until a mysterious voice called Merlin offers you a chance at revenge.
But will you trust someone you’ve never met?
Outrun the law. Uncover the truth. Make the streets your weapon in Highway Noir.
Key Features:
- Race through high-speed chases, tight manouevres, and narrow escapes through a blazing neon world.
- Weave through a black and white city where every car in colour is a threat or an opportunity.
- Take on contracts as a freelancer and earn cash to upgrade your fleet and win bigger jobs.
- Follow the story for revenge and redemption, or jump straight into Infinite Run, Pursuit, Escape, and other fast-play modes to test your reflexes and push your limits.
- Feel the beat of every chase with an original score from a lineup of awesome composers.
- Take jobs, earn cash, and strike back at the agency that betrayed you. Merlin says he wants to help. Do you believe him?
- Highway Noir includes subtitles, tone tags, vision assist, and game speed options for a smoother and more accessible experience.
Discussing the announcement of Highway Noir, developer Mike Parry said: “I want to drop the player into an action movie car chase. But how to get them there? My answer is to drop them into a revenge thriller at the same time.”
