SPEEDBALL WILL EXIT EARLY ACCESS ON JANUARY 27

CAN YOU HEAR THE CROWD ROAR? We are pleased to announce Speedball will exit Steam Early Access on January 27, following its initial launch in October 2024.

Speedball is the revival of the iconic Bitmap Brothers franchise, first launched in 1988. Set in the grim future of 2138, Speedball is a no-holds-barred future sport that is used by mega-corporations to distract the downtrodden masses from their miserable lives. It is the only sport that allows two cybernetically augmented teams to go head-to-head at levels of speed and violence beyond human limitations. Matches are fast-paced, explosive and unpredictable and you will need to master high-speed passing, coordination and shooting.

Key features:

• Incredible fast-paced, explosive and unpredictable matches

• Face off in a brutal sport featuring a wide range of teams and arenas

• Take advantage of arena specific obstacles and abilities to gain the upper hand against your opponents

• Slow motion Slam Cam captures the most visceral and brutal tackles

• Arcade-style matches come together with sports management strategy

• Organize a team that fits your playstyle based on their individual traits and talents

• Hone your skills against the AI and then compete online or against a friend locally
