Velan shared a image on Twitter in which we can see the roadmap of their game for 2021. The title that was released with the EA Originals label received more than decent reviews a month ago and has now revealed that its first season is only the first of four to be released. They will be released until the end of the year.
Each will feature new maps, different game modes, cosmetic items, and different types of balls, which means there will be major gameplay changes as we progress through the year.
Burned with variety
That said, keep in mind that Knockout City is a title inspired by the sport “burned” or “dodgeball”, so the idea is to hit other players with the ball. Certainly there are several game modes but the standard is to play “burned” with a double chance (you can take a hit twice before being knocked out). And this roadmap confirms that there will be new maps where we can do this.
In the same way there are a lot of events ready to bring variety, there will be at least three in the following season, but they still have no name. In that same season a new ball will arrive (each one has different effects on the gameplay), a theme that will change the interface and skins of the characters and more contracts to get the internal currency of the game.
So the second season of Knockout City will begin on July 27, while the third will start in the fall and the fourth in the winter. In this way, each will last around three months, much longer than expected for an online title that had not generated so many expectations in the beginning.
Knockout City está disponible en PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch y PC.
