Rebellion Drops Speedball Tips & Tricks Video Ahead of Console Launch
Rebellion has released a brand-new Speedball tips and tricks video to help players prepare for the game’s upcoming console debut. The iconic futuristic sports revival will officially launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on January 27, while also exiting Steam Early Access on the same day.
Created by the legendary Bitmap Brothers in 1988, Speedball is set in the brutal future of 2138, where mega-corporations use extreme sports as a distraction from societal collapse. The modern reboot stays true to its roots, blending high-speed arcade action with strategic team management and explosive cyber-enhanced combat.
The new video showcases essential techniques for mastering Speedball’s chaotic matches. Players will need quick reflexes, smart passing, and arena awareness to survive. Features like arena-specific hazards, slow-motion Slam Cam tackles, customizable teams, and online or local multiplayer make every match feel intense and unpredictable. Whether you’re sharpening your skills against AI or dominating online, Speedball is shaping up to be one of the most aggressive sports games of the year.
