Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We spent a lot of time figuring out how to make a fast-paced, contact-heavy sport like volleyball feel enjoyable and controllable in a video game.
After playing through both old and new volleyball games, we realized that the best gameplay would probably come from a 2D environment.
But that's just our take — now we want to hear from modern players: what changes would you make, and which game modes would you like to see more of?”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Probably 6–7 months”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to add a Career/Club Mode, where you’ll start with a small local team and work your way up by developing your players.

We're also planning a more comprehensive tutorial mode, featuring a step-by-step walkthrough of the full gameplay moveset.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version includes the Arcade Mode, where you can unlock the first 36 national teams from the FIVB World Ranking. In this challenge, you'll need to win a series of consecutive matches, just like in the final stages of a World Championship. Each time you win several matches in a row, new teams become available.

You'll also find the Single Match mode, where you can choose the court, team, and various match settings to practice or challenge a friend in local multiplayer—or online via Steam Remote Play Together.

Finally, there's the Training mode, designed to help you learn and refine the many available moves: different types of serves, spikes, pipe attacks, running saves, and all aspects of defense—from receiving to blocking.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price will not change when the game leaves Early Access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“With a dedicated Discord server, we’ll be more than happy to receive your feedback and suggestions!”
