Speedball News

Hey Folks,

Those of you who have entered the Arena today will notice a new patch has just gone live. This patch aims to address some of the issues that have been highlighted by our community since we launched into early access.

Despite the cold weather, we've also really been hankering for some ice cream. Something tells us we'll hearing a lot more about frozen treats in the coming future...





Thank you for your continued support, below is the full list of fixes included in todays patch:

- ICE CREAM! introduced into Speedball.
- Fixed error in which audio would not play correctly after a disconnected match.
- Player 2's game profile now updates correctly during offline matches.
- Fixed error which prevented players from progressing past the sign in screen.
- Fixed bug which allowed Hidden Achievement to be unlocked by AI.
- Fixed bug which affected player speed intermittently.

We’re also seeking fans’ ideas and feedback on how to grow the game and encourage players to join Speedball's dedicated Discord forum to engage with our developers and contribute to the development cycle.

Speedball is a brand-new entry into the legendary Bitmap Brothers series! In the grim future of 2138, the futuresport is used by mega-corporations to distract the downtrodden masses from their miserable lives.

Once an underground sport reviled for its brutality, Speedball has risen to unprecedented heights of popularity and profitability.

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, where any moment could be a player’s last.

BRUTALITY

Listen to the roar of the crowd and the crunch of broken bones as you engage in a brutal match-up with visceral takedowns.
Sit back and watch as medbots drag your battered, beaten and bruised opponents out of the arena.

SPEED

Whether playing singleplayer, online, or against a friend in couch play, matches are fast-paced, explosive and unpredictable. Master high-speed passing, coordination and shooting to climb your way the top of the underground world of Speedball.

STRATEGY

Select, position and organise your players based on their strengths, weaknesses and cybernetic augmentations. Will you push for all-out aggression, or will a defensive powerhouse be your greatest asset?


• Incredible fast-paced matches that are explosive and unpredictable
• 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
• 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

Speedball has launched into Early Access with a 12-month roadmap that will see a host of new content and features added before the ‘full version’ of the game is released.
