    Knockout City is a blast for tried-and-true online combat fans, thanks to its mix of instantly intriguing and powerful abilities and rock-paper-dodgeball strategy pivots. It's also an incredibly easy recommendation for kids and families, since it finally cracked the nut of an "online shooter" that offers the fun of a gun game without in any way resembling gunplay. Its cartoony aesthetic has grown on me, too, thanks to an art team that has balanced simple geometry with bold, enticing designs in a very Nintendo-like way. Assuming EA doesn't screw this up in the months to come, expect Knockout City to land on my list of 2021's best games of the year. [Ars Technica Approved]

    An amazingly fresh take on the sports/shooter/fighter genre. Like Rocket League, it doesn’t fit into one descriptor. Crisp stylized cartoonAn amazingly fresh take on the sports/shooter/fighter genre. Like Rocket League, it doesn’t fit into one descriptor. Crisp stylized cartoon graphics on Xbox Series X, and an amazing customization system with nothing locked to gender. $20, which is a steal given the price includes: all future or current battle passes for seasons, personal leveling, competitive, rotating items in the shop, and access to all current or future maps. A few server issues the first day, nothing to be surprised about for a new game by a small team. Overall exceptional, esports material, and great to spend 20 minutes or 2 hours in.… Full Review »
