Score goals on a steel-walled, 160-by-90-foot pitch while utilizing ball warp tunnels to teleport the ball across the arena. This cyberpunk sport rewards violent play alongside traditional scoring, allowing players to engage in physical combat to gain an advantage. Matches support up to 2 players in single-player or multiplayer modes.
