KungFu Kickball is the team based sports platform fighter we’ve always wanted. Developer WhaleFood Games and publisher Blowfish Studios are sending the game to Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and Steam stores early 2020. Check out the trailer here:

In this game, you square off against your friends in a game that combines the action of soccer and martial arts. Release a plethora of kicks, punches, and magical abilities to take out the opposing team and get the ball downfield. Score points by overpowering or outmaneuvering your opponent and send the ball into the large bell at either end of the stadium.</p><p><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="lazy lazy-hidden aligncenter wp-image-16011 size-large" src="//sickcritic.com/wp-content/plugins/a3-lazy-load/assets/images/lazy_placeholder.gif" data-lazy-type="image" data-src="https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-1024x576.png" alt="" width="700" height="394" srcset="" data-srcset="https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-1024x576.png 1024w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-300x169.png 300w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-768x432.png 768w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-664x374.png 664w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /><noscript><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-16011 size-large" src="https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-1024x576.png" alt="" width="700" height="394" srcset="https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-1024x576.png 1024w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-300x169.png 300w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-768x432.png 768w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Desert4-664x374.png 664w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></noscript></p><p>This game features both local and online 1v1 and 2v2 multiplayer. <em>KungFu Kickball </em>makes use of minimalist controls to create an accessible yet competitive playing experience. Matches are fast-paced, tug-of-war style in which players switch between offensive strikes and defensive stands all in a second. Every match has its own character with six stages and three player classes. <img decoding="async" class="lazy lazy-hidden aligncenter wp-image-16012 size-large" src="//sickcritic.com/wp-content/plugins/a3-lazy-load/assets/images/lazy_placeholder.gif" data-lazy-type="image" data-src="https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-1024x576.png" alt="" width="700" height="394" srcset="" data-srcset="https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-1024x576.png 1024w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-300x169.png 300w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-768x432.png 768w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-664x374.png 664w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /><noscript><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-16012 size-large" src="https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-1024x576.png" alt="" width="700" height="394" srcset="https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-1024x576.png 1024w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-300x169.png 300w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-768x432.png 768w, https://sickcritic.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/KFK_Reveal_Lava6-664x374.png 664w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /></noscript></p><p><strong>Blowfish Studios</strong> had a small booth at PAX West where we had the opportunity to experience this game first hand.
