Knockout City
SCORE: 75
I am very thankful we were able to get a
free copy of Knockout City on the Xbox Series X thanks to Peter’s Xbox
Game Pass. Were you able to participate with my stream on Twitch when I
played Knockout City? That was the first time I ever played this game in
my entire life. Talk about playing games blind. I played Knockout City
the day after it was released. The match making in Knockout City is
spotty at best. I would lose a match and win a match in this three on
three dodgeball video game. Players can take two hits before they lose a
point and must respawn.
The timing of catching the ball is spotty at best in Knockout City. I
wonder if lag had something to do with it. I would wait until the right
time according to the training to catch the ball. In a match I would
take a hit instead of catch the ball or deflect it away. Catching
happened when I did not have a ball. Deflecting happened when I was
holding a ball. Certain balls in Knockout City have cool effects. The
sniper ball and multi-ball were my two favorites. I hated getting hit by
the moon ball even though I was set up properly to catch it.
I never knew if I would get a good team or a bad team in Knockout City.
I did get MVP early on while playing Knockout City. I ran across some
amazing players in Knockout City that showed me some fascinating skills
I never knew were in this downloadable only video game. The stages in
Knockout City are fascinating as well. Some of them have things that can
help you and some have objects that will help you. I love using the
glider in Knockout City.
Like plenty of modern video games there are all kinds of skins and
changes that can be made to your player. Some things are unlocked with
leveling up and others are purchased in the store. The balance in terms
of gameplay to being able to purchase items in the store are horrible in
Knockout City. After playing for one hour I was unable to purchase
anything. Other online games like Fall Guys Ultimate Knockout have a
much better game play to store purchase ratio.
The issues families can have with Knockout City are violence, lack of
attire, enticement to lust, and more. I was shocked to see Knockout City
encouraging mental illness like having males dress like females. I hope
Knockout City improves with time.
