You need to play the most explosive sports game ever made ASAP

Roller derby is already pretty much a perfect sport, combining athleticism, ferocity, and showmanship. But any sport could be improved by adding one thing —

Rollerdrome is the latest game from Roll7, the developer of OlliOlli.

While OlliOlli was a skateboarding sim with minimalist controls, Rollerdrome is a maximalism on roller skates.

You play as Kara Hassan, a scrappy newcomer to the violent world of Rollerdrome — a futuristic sport that combines high-speed skating with mortal combat.

The reward for keeping it together is participating in a glorious ballet of airborne stunts and violence.

Short, first-person vignettes that dig into the dark corporate underbelly of Rollerdrome break up the action.

They’re surprisingly adept at telling a story in just minutes at a time, but you’re free to skip them if you need to keep the adrenaline flowing.

That adrenaline will come in handy as the challenge ramps up quickly and never seems to plateau. Early qualifiers have you mostly mowing down goons with bats...

but before long you’ll battle teleporting beam-snipers, mechs, and a spider tank with a quarter pipe on its back.

If you can’t keep up with the frantic pace (pointing a finger at myself), you’re free to lower damage, get infinite ammo, and even remove the requirements to unlock new levels through handy assist options.

Rollerdrome is a perfect pick-up-and-play game. The action starts almost immediately, rounds last just a few minutes, and even if you lose, you’ll probably have a hell of a good time doing it.
