Roller Champions is a really different game. While many might argue that the premise for the game is awfully similar to Rocket League, I still think that the upcoming game is one that is very innovative and inspired in its own different way. How about you? Have you heard of Roller Champions, the new game by Ubisoft? If you haven’t, then now is your chance to get familiar with it, because it is one that is on top right now and is putting every other game to shame. At least with the way that it is telling things to be. And the players seem to be quite excited about it too, which is just adding so much more fuel to the fire.
Personally, I think that it is a pretty neat concept for a game. If you’re seen the trailers, Roller Champions manages to be quite different than any other e-sport title that we have ever seen before, while being characteristically sporty at the same time. The venues and the environment for the game are so inspired and it just feels like it could be a real sport. I wish that there were more games that would take chances with risky concepts like this one because it seems to work really well when it comes to Roller Champions. But for those of you who have not seen the trailer, all of this might just seem like some jargon.
So without much further ado, let us learn more about the new game Roller Champions from Ubisoft.
Roller Champions: About the Game
Roller Champions is an upcoming game by Ubisoft that aims to compete in the esports territory. The game itself is based on a ball game where players attempt to score by shooting balls through a hoop. Now, you might say that this is exactly the same as basketball, and to be quite fair, you would be right. However, the game itself is more in the leagues of Rocket League rather than basketball, even though the former is not really an actual physical sport. But then again, neither is Roller Champions. In fact, the game is as different as it can be and you might not expect it to be as different as it is.
Coming to the gameplay of the game, rollerskates are involved as you play in a team of 3 and attempt to score against another team by ice skating around the rink and completing laps, allowing you to push the ball into the hoop that opens after every successful revolution around the rink. The gameplay of the game is quite fluid and dynamic and allows for a lot of different gameplay styles, while also requiring a lot of mastery to actually be able to win against others. It is a really amazing experience that will have you getting competitive in no time.
I’m personally someone who has not been a major fan of esports titles for a long time now. However, I do appreciate a good esports title when I see one, and for the time being, Roller Champions seems to be it. In fact, I have not really seen a game that is as innovative as this and novel in its concept so seeing this really made me go back to all those esports titles that I might have missed over the years, and that is a pretty big compliment for any game.
