Speedball is a fast-paced sport wherein teams of twelve muscle-bound gladiators attempt to throw a solid metal ball into their opponents' goal. Players select one of 16 Speedball teams and are charged with leading them to victory in a series of tournaments and leagues. Anything goes as players weave intricate passes together, use the walls to deflect long passes to the attacking line and attempt to slam the ball past heavily armoured goalkeepers. For safety reasons, each player is required to wear padded suits as the ability to foul an opponent or crack their skulls with a well-placed ball is as essential as perfecting long shots at the goal.
