Knockout City is in the middle of Season 2 right now, which brought a movies theme to the entertaining multiplayer brawler. Now, it’s on the brink of introducing a wild new limited time event called Knockout City Heroes. It’s spearheaded by a playlist called Superpowers! — a new mode that adds, well, superpowers into the dodgeball chaos.
Available from 24th August through to 7th September, the new playlist adds seven power-ups to the core 3v3 template. Here’s what they all do, as outlined in the press release:
- Ballform Bounce – While in Ballform, bounce pads will Ultimate Throw you!
- Charge-Up – Gain extra overcharge from catches and passes!
- Tackle Strike – Tackle your opponents to deal damage!
- Double Jump – Jump again in the air!
- Healing Powers – Heal your hearts back over time!
- Strength – Pick up opponents by tackling them!
- X-Ray Vision – See and target players through walls!
These will really change how the normal game is played, and it should all make for a chaotic new mode. Regenerating hearts? Damage via tackles? We’ll definitely be giving it a spin. Playing Superpowers! mode will reward you with Power Crystals, which you can exchange for superhero-themed goodies in a special section of the in-game shop. Of course, there will be new Contracts to complete as well, which will also give you those Power Crystals needed for the exclusive cosmetics.
