Epic dodgeball battles are the game and Knockout City is the name. A new gameplay trailer was released today that shows off a "new take on team-based multiplayer games."
Players will be able to customize their own dodgeball tossing character and "form a Crew" with friends. There will be plenty of trick shots and coordinated teamwork as you dodge, duck, dip, dive, and dodge balls that are flying across the map. Can't find a ball to toss at an opponent? Don't worry because you can become the ball and get thrown by a teammate. That's sure to leave a mark on someone.
There are a variety of ball types, locations, and game modes that will be present in Knockout City. There will also be some seasons coming after launch that introduces new maps, ball types, rewards, events, and challenges.
Key Features
- Frantic and Fun – Rule the city through lightning-fast multiplayer matches featuring mind-blowing dodgeball mechanics. Increase your attack by passing to power up dodgeballs, targeting your opponents with a variety of specialized balls, or “balling up†at any time to get thrown by teammates!
- Crew Up – Assemble an All-Star dodgeball Crew with your friends for multiplayer matches in a seamless cross-play experience! Together, knock out opponents in three-versus-three, four-versus-four, or free-for-all matches. Pass, throw, and strategize as a team to dominate and unlock distinctive, Crew-only rewards!
- Define Your Style – Show off your status and unique look through character and Crew designs with expansive character creation options. Customize your appearance, gear, and attitude, from body type and hairstyle to a custom glider and Crew vehicle to win, lose, and taunt animations.
- Take On Knockout City – Battle it out with other Crews across dynamic maps all over the city. Each map’s special features make every match an intense, unexpected experience. Dodgeball thrives in back alleys with pneumatic tubes, on skyscraper rooftops, across busy streets—and even at the local burger joint and construction sites. While you’re dodging dodgeballs, watch out for moving cars, rooftop drops, and even a wrecking ball or two.
- Strikingly Fresh Yet Familiar – It’s easy to pick up and play thanks to familiar controls, but practice is key to becoming a champion. On a level playing field, only the most skilled ballers stand out from the crowd. Use your knowledge to master the intricacies of the game for spectacular KOs.
