Independent developer Pathea Games has announced that its upcoming award-winning 3v3 esports phenomenon, Super Buckyball Tournament, will launch its Preseason on steam for free now until December 6th at 12 AM PST.
In addition to the six characters, two stadiums and mission system featured during the game’s open alpha earlier this year, preseason content will include new challenger Samba, two Arcade modes (Dodgeball mode and Mayhem mode), a new lobby, in-game background music, a comprehensive collection of skins (which includes accessories and player icons), and a season pass with 60 levels. Fans will be able to level up their season pass by completing daily and weekly challenges and earning special rewards.
The title’s two Arcade modes, Dodgeball and Mayhem, will be unlocked once players arrive at season pass level 6. Dodgeball challenges fans to avoid getting hit by two balls while making sure those balls don’t rest on their side of the stadium for more than 12 seconds. Mayhem is a super-powered version of Standard mode, as abilities charge three times faster and players take control of random characters each time a goal is scored. Each mode will be rotated every 24 hours, meaning one will be available to enjoy every day.
Set in a future where artificial intelligence manifests itself via robotic humanoids and people splice their DNA with animals, Super Buckyball Tournament has two teams (made up of three contestants each) compete to score the most goals within a six-minute time window. Each real-time match feels different, as players are encouraged to strategize and experiment with unique character abilities and stadium items. In anticipation of the upcoming preseason, Pathea Games has improved the title’s gameplay by optimizing to a High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) for better graphics and smoother performance.
