Not to be too pessimistic but in the distant future, when we live in a dystopian nightmare, there will only be a couple of things that unites humanity. We will all own a gun of some sort, but they won’t be self-defence. Instead, people will use them to play the only sport in town that matters. Hyper Gunsport is out today on Xbox, Nintendo Switch and PC.
Hyper Gunsport is the sport of the future! Everyone wants to play but only a select few are good enough. Prove yourself worthy with this futuristic arcade sports title.
Not too dissimilar to Windjammers 2, teams of up to two people on each side play a futuristic version of volleyball using guns. A ball in the middle must be hit towards your opponent’s side to score points in one of several goals. Each goal offers a different score and the first to reach the threshold wins. The kicker here is that instead of spiking the ball like in volleyball, you volley it with gunfire instead. The longer the ball stay in a rally for, the more points the goal will be worth.
Hyper Gunsport features:
- Circuit mode: an 8-round tournament against teams from around the globe, with a short story for each of the 7 teams. Playable in local co-op or single player with an AI partner.
- Versus mode: 4 player 2v2 or 1v1 local competitive play.
- AI tournament: let the AI battle itself, wind it up and watch it go.
- 7 arenas with unique gimmicks and rulesets that change how the game is played
The future is here. Hyper Gunsport is on the Xbox Store now priced at £20.99. With easy pick-up-and-play controls but with depth for more hardcore players, Hyper Gunsport offers something for everyone, no matter your skill level. And our review will be coming very soon, stay tuned.
