Speedball is a brand new entry into the legendary Bitmap Brothers series, first released in 1988. Set in the grim future of 2138, Speedball is a no-holds-barred futuresport 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.
In Speedball, players will compete in a high stakes sport featuring visceral takedowns, with the most brutal relived via the in-game slow motion camera. Matches are fast-paced, explosive and unpredictable.
Alongside mastering high-speed passing, coordination and shooting during matches, players will also need to select, position and organise their team based on their stars’ strengths, weaknesses and cybernetic augmentations. Will your team be known for all-out aggression, or will you develop a defensive powerhouse?
