HyperBrawl Tournament is the ultimate game of intergalactic handball. Players brawl it out in 2v2 matchups fusing outrageous weapons and physics defying powerups. Using powers to curve perfect shots mid-flight and score incredible goals, or smash opponents out of the arena in this science fantasy arcade game.
In a combination of sports and brawling, heroes can choose different abilities and awesome weapons to bring into the arena as they fight for control of the ball, throwing it into the opposition’s goal to score points. Outside of that, there are no rules…so don’t be afraid to fight dirty. A big part of HyperBrawl Tournament’s strategy revolves around mastering the HyperCurve – which allows players to control the trajectory of each throw in real-time – the HyperForce, ultimate offensive powers that can be used to launch opponents out of the arena.
New Update Features include
A Brand New Private Match Mode and Friends Invite System – Allowing up to 4 friends to jump into an exclusive online game without the need to wait in lobbies.
Matchmaking Improvements – New recommended servers and server selection options, as well as 40+ re-engineered AI opponent teams to ensure players are no longer waiting for a game.
