Our take on Witchball
Combining two contests at once creates a focused competitive format, but it limits play to local two-player matches. The same split attention that defines the game also leaves less room for a conventional racing experience or solo progression.
What is Witchball?
Witchball is a local two-player racing game set in 2601, where children compete after environmental change has isolated communities and made long-distance travel impossible.
Each match combines a high-speed foot race with a two-dimensional ball game displayed across the players’ cameras. Competitors earn points in both activities, with scores added at the end of each lap. The game includes four courses with different modes, forming nine tracks in total, plus eight special abilities. Matches are built for one-versus-one competition, with two Xbox controllers recommended, although keyboard controls are supported. Witchball is intended for local multiplayer only.
