A Great War ended a thousand years ago, leaving enough destruction behind that the surviving nations formed a United Government with a single ironclad rule: no more armed conflict. Now disputes between planets are settled by racing on a track called Lifespeed. Cypher Reid competes on behalf of a world fighting for its survival — and for the chance to become Archon, the greatest pilot in the galaxy. Lifespeed is a fast-paced sci-fi racing game built around that competition.
