Virtual Rangers, the Luxembourg-based virtual reality studio releases Lux Runner, the first game that is 100% made and played in Luxembourg.

Despite Luxembourg’s digital expertise and presence, its small size and low profile have kept it from being the subject of a game. Matthieu Bracchetti, founder and CEO of Virtual Rangers wanted to change this. Indeed, since the creation of his business in 2017, he has wanted to make a game that puts Luxembourg and all its little idiosyncrasies at its centre.

With Lux Runner, Matthieu Bracchetti achieves this long held dream and gives Luxembourg the digital representation it didn’t know it needed. The “infinite runner” game whose aim it is to collect coins and diamonds all while avoiding obstacles and travelling through different Luxembourgish landscapes, also features another distinctly local character.

The “Roude Leiw”, aptly called Roudy, is the game’s main character and helps you navigate challenges and missions and even allows you to visit the Grand Duc’s palace, drive in the police’s Teslas and wear a top hat in the local colours. Another essential aspect of the game is its shop which allows you to spice up Roudy’s wardrobe and choose different vehicles.
