ABOUT POOL PARTY

Challenge your friends and dive into waves of fun at the Pool Party resort! Enjoy the shared/split screen PvP mode for up to four players or try your luck solo in tons of sports and brawl games and fight to become “The King of the Party.” Customize your pool ball – choose your favorite color and design – and go head-to-head with your friends while having a splashing good time!

Just remember that these pool balls aren’t just adorable but also surprisingly agile. They can reach ridiculous speeds as they roll and bounce around the arena! Plus, these balls can knock each other around because, well, they are balls, after all! You’ll be amazed by the sheer power of a perfectly aimed kick, propelling a rival ball all over the place. So what are you waiting for? Gather your friends, grab a cue, join the party, and battle it out in chaotic physics-based party games in Pool Party!

POOL PARTY – MAIN FEATURES

• Chaotic physics-based sports and brawl games.
• Play with up to four players in local multiplayer or solo.
• Add bots to fill out teams or improve your skills.
• Easy to learn, hard to master. Anyone can join the fun!
• Various game modes like Pool, Idol, Sumo, and Free-for-all.

POOL PARTY – GAMEPLAY MODES

• Pool: Score by kicking balls of your color into the open pockets while being careful not to fall in yourself!
• Tennis: Either solo or in pairs, kick the ball across the court to score!
• Sumo: No kicking allowed! Push the other players into the water by rolling into them. It’s push or be pushed!
• Football: With one or two players on each team, shoot your ball into the opposing goal to score – or kick your opponents away to clear your path to the goal.
• Idol: Compete to pick up and hold on to a small idol. Gain points by holding the idol. But beware – holding the idol means you can’t roll while your opponents chase you down to knock it out of your hands.
• Jinxed: One of the players is cursed! Kick, push, or hit the other players to pass the curse onto them. When the timer runs out, the cursed player loses, and the curse finds a new target. The last one standing wins!
• Free-for-all: Knock your opponents into the pockets and try to be the last one standing.
• Tournament: Play a mix of all the different game modes and become the ultimate Pool Party champion!

Pool Party is developed by Lakeview Games and published by Mindscape on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch. The Xbox Series X|S release is planned for May 31st.
