Knockout City, the EA Originals ‘dodgebrawl’ sensation, is preparing for its sixth season. To celebrate, the game’s new publisher, Velan Studios, has decided to release the game as a free-to-play title. EA Originals first released Knockout City in 2021, but earlier this year, Velan Studios took over the publishing role for the game.

Season six of Knockout City, titled City of Tomorrow, is available for free download right now, and fans of the game can expect a whole lot of new additions to get their blood pumping. According to the game’s patch notes, some of the most exciting new additions are the Starfruit Special energy drink, a new Boomerang Ball spanning numerous playlists, the new Sci-flyer crew vehicle, and a permanent new career gig. You can also expect to see numerous improvements to the map this time around, as well as an expanded hideout area. 

More new additions come in the form of a free and premium battle pass. As far as the premium tier goes, you can expect to see some new outfits and a few unique poses. You’ll also get an expanded selection of trophies and a good deal of Holobux which will definitely help you in the next season. 

The version seems to be just as good, if not better, in terms of gear and loot. Here, fans of Among us will be delighted to see the fruits of a new crossover! Included in this crossover loot between Among Us and Knockout City are a bunch of legendary items such as the Note 2 Self glasses, Emergency Meeting taunt, In Electrical defeat pose, and the iconic Mini Crewmate hairstyle. Rest assured though, that there are many more exciting additions under both of these battle passes. 

You can download the new free-to-play version of Knockout City for PC today via Steam. If you’re a console gamer, you can also play the new version of the game on PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and, of course, the Nintendo Switch. Velan has also assured players that because the game is switching to a free-to-play platform, you won’t need any of the subscription-based console platforms to play it. 

If you’re a fan of EA Originals or the partnership between EA and Maxis, you may be a fan of The Sims. In which case we have just the article for you. We’ve ranked the 10 best expansion packs for the Sims 4.

I hail from the awe-inspiring beauty of South Africa. Born and raised in Pretoria, I've always had a deep interest in local history, particularly conflicts, architecture, and our country's rich past of being a plaything for European aristocracy. 'Tis an attempt at humor. My interest in history has since translated into hours at a time researching everything from the many reasons the Titanic sank (really, it's a wonder she ever left Belfast) to why Minecraft is such a feat of human technological accomplishment. I am an avid video gamer (Sims 4 definitely counts as video gaming, I checked) and particularly enjoy playing the part of a relatively benign overlord in Minecraft. I enjoy the diverse experiences gaming offers the player. Within the space of a few hours, a player can go from having a career as an interior decorator in Sims, to training as an archer under Niruin in Skyrim. I believe video games have so much more to teach humanity about community, kindness, and loyalty, and I enjoy the opportunity to bring concepts of the like into literary pieces.
