GrappleHook Games is bringing its magical, sports title, Skorecery, to PS4 next month. Exclusive to Sony’s console, Skorecery is a modern, multiplayer take on arcade games like Breakout and Pong.
Up to four local players can play together in battles where they’ll each fight for control of the Arena’s ball. By throwing the ball at other player’s Runes and the player with the most Runes at the end of the round is crowned the winner.
Skorecery ships with four preset modes and gives players the ability to create new ways to play.
