Knockout City to get free trial at launch

By Heidi Nicholas,

If you've been keeping an eye on Knockout City but hadn't yet decided whether to get it, good news: the "dodgebrawler" will have a ten-day free trial at launch.

The free trial goes live on May 21st at 5am PDT / 12pm UTC / 1pm BST, and runs until May 30th. Over on the game's site, the devs say that rather than worrying about any demo limits, "you’ll have the full game at your disposal... from day one, you’ll be able to Crew Up with friends and unlock bonus content like Epic Crew Cosmetics, up to 500 more Holobux, and Season 1 XP boosts to accelerate your progression when Season 1 starts. Plus, to keep things interesting, we’re releasing four Playlists at launch: Team KO, Diamond Dash, Party Team KO, and Face-Off." The first season kicks off halfway through the free trial on May 25th. "You’ll be so immersed in exploring every map, unlocking all that sweet, sweet content, and perfecting your catch on every Special Ball that you won’t even notice you’ve hit Season 1."

The free trial kicks off on May 21st, with the start of Season One on May 25th. Will you be trying out Knockout City? Let us know in the comments!

Hey, I'm Heidi! I've just finished studying a Masters in English Literature, but I've been obsessed with gaming since long before then. I began on the PS2 with Spyro, before graduating to the Xbox 360 and disappearing into Skyrim. I'm now a loyal RPG fan, but I still like to explore other genres — when I'm not playing Assassin's Creed Odyssey, or being lured back into Red Dead Redemption 2 or The Witcher 3!
