According to a recent Exputer report from games journalist Tom Henderson, insider information has revealed that 2K Games is currently far along in the development of “Gravity Goal,” which is specifically intended to launch as an alternative and cometitor to Psyonix’s “Rocket League.”
As opposed to cars, “Gravity Goal” will use what is described as “‘Tron-like bikes” in 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3 matchups, with the same goal of sinking a ball into the back of the opposing goal. Henderson also describes a system in which discs adorned with LED lights are used to attack opposing players, causing them to either slow down or come to a complete stop upon contact.
The report goes on to state that “Gravity Goal” was actually in alpha stage testing in late 2021 and that a formal announcement regarding the game and its release date may be only a few months away. “Gravity Goal” would reportedly be a next-gen exclusive, available only on the Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and PC platforms. Exputer also shared a screenshot — provided by French website JVL — of the game seemingly being added to the Steam database.
Whether or not 2K Games can compete with the lauded “Rocket League” remains to be seen. But if reports are correct, gamers will see if “Gravity Goal” holds up really soon.
