Usain Bolt becomes Temple Run 2 character, fastest in-app purchase ever?

Temple Run 2 is an excellent and insanely addictive game, we’re sure you’ll agree. However, we can’t help but find ourselves wishing that darn explorer fellow could run a little faster.

It seems that the game’s developers Imangi Studios have heard our cries, adding in a new playable character that’s much, much faster. Fans of the popular game can now purchase and play as the world’s fastest man, Usain Bolt.

Those with the game installed can buy Bolt in-game and play as him, running from those strange creatures whilst avoiding pitfalls and collecting coins along the way. His character has a special “Bolt” ability which when activated will make Usain invincible as well as a coin magnet. There’s also an aspect of auto guidance too, which means it should be harder for him to fall off those little ledges.

It seems the world’s fastest man has developed a penchant for helping out tech companies with their advertisements, or perhaps tech companies like to link their speedy products with a very speedy man.

Will you be doing some temple running with Bolt?
