Press release:
March 25th, Madrid. Sony Interactive Entertainment Spain (SIE Spain) announces that sports game e-Crossminton, by Spanish indie studio Daydream Software, will be released in Europe (digital only) on April 3rd as a PlayStation® exclusive for €14.99 (PEGI 3).

e-Crossminton is the first official crossminton video game for consoles. Crossminton (formerly called Speedminton) is a sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and squash.

Born in Germany in 2005, it is now played across 26 countries and keeps expanding thanks to the work of the International Crossminton Organization, which has been directly involved in the development of the video game.

Daydream Software developed the game in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria PlayStation Games Camp – one of the business accelerators of PlayStation Talents, the support programme for Spanish development (see below).

e-Crossminton offers several game modes: singles and doubles tournaments and leagues, as well as intense minigames for up to 4 players and a challenging arcade mode.

With more than 20 available professional players with different stats and personal skills and varied settings for matches, as well as online and split-screen local multiplayer, e-Crossminton offers the most intense experience of the sport.
