In 2025, Cherry Rush hit the stage and was an unbelievable success thanks to the viewers, players, and fans of UFO 50 that made it special. We set out to do something incredible, with a specific goal to get 50 cherry disks in 3 days. And we did it! And we raised over $16,000 for Partners in Health as part of our efforts.
​
Now it's 2026 - What will we do this time? Surely not the exact same script. So...
​
Cherry Rush is back, with no limits!
​
This year's marathon will feature everything we have to offer. Mods, races, new categories, new twists on old categories, showcases, and more.
​
We want YOU to submit some runs, and join us on the virtual stage. It's going to be the biggest celebration of UFO 50 yet! Run submissions are open 1 June - 10 July.
​
Whether you're playing or just watching along, get ready to join us on the most ambitious and all-out showcase of our community so far.
​
Join us live on August 28-30! We can't wait to see what happens this time.

An Event by the
UFO 50 Community (Again!)
UFO 50 is an experience unlike any other. With fifty fully-imagined games in one collection, the community has become a true mesh of players from all backgrounds and experiences.

In the time since its release in September 2024, the UFO 50 community has been responsible for many great moments and accomplishments. In addition to Cherry Rush '25 and '26, here are some other ways the community has been making waves in and out of the UFO 50-sphere.
