Knockout City Heroes Limited Time Event!

Knockout City Heroes Limited Time Event

Suit up your spandex and break out that cape, it’s Heroes versus Villains in this ultimate showdown between the forces of good and evil! You’ll get to try out your newfound powers in the limited-time Superpowers! Playlist, and earn Power Crystals from completing Hero Contracts and playing matches, which you can exchange for exclusive hero or villain items from the Hero Shop! Evil never rests and neither do we, so let’s dive right in!

NEWS FLASH! V.I.P.E.R. Agents have tainted the city's Boba Cola supply with the highly experimental Chemical V! Chemical V is a mad concoction from the brilliant but twisted mind of Viper Leader himself. Anyone who ingests it will be imbued with physics defying Super Powers! With the Knockout City Police distracted by all the Super Powered Brawlers running amok in the city, Viper Leader and his gang are free to rob and steal with no one to stop them! Who will save us from this terror? What’s that? A familiar streak of light flying through the air. A silhouette backlit by the searchlights. Could it be? It is! It’s Captain KO and their trusty sidekick the Curve Shot Kid! Can the Dodging Duo overcome the Villainous Viper Squad?

Will you align with Heroes like Captain KO and the Curve Shot Kid? Or will you let evil corrupt your heart, be a Villain and side with V.I.P.E.R.? Whichever path you choose, get ready because it’s Knockout time, baby!

Superpowers!

Starting tomorrow, Tuesday, August 31, at 12 p.m. (noon) UTC, you’ll be able to take on opponents in Superpowers!—our most transformative playlist to date. From the moment you spawn onto the map, you’ll be granted a new super power that dramatically alters your (and your teammates’) approach to brawling. Powers like Super Ballform Bounce, which you can use to sneak behind enemy lines, Ball Up, and roll onto a bouncepad to launch yourself into an Ultimate Throw, wiping out the opposition in the blink of an eye. Or, use your newfound Super Strength to pick up an opponent when tackling into them, then casually saunter over and take out the trash, sending them on a one-way-trip to the garbage heap.

Take one too many whacks to the face? Never fear! Your Superhero days have just begun! Every time you respawn, you’ll have the opportunity to try out a new ability, making getting KO’d all the more fun. 

Try out every Super Power! When you're knocked out, your superhero days aren't over, you'll spawn with a brand new power to try (and master) . With the advantages granted by each of the seven unique powers, you’ll be able to dominate and wipe out the enemy team like never before!

• Ballform Bounce - While in Ballform, bounce pads will Ultimate Throw you!
• Charge-Up - Gain extra overcharge from catches and passes!
• Tackle Strike - Tackle your opponents to deal damage!
• Double Jump - Jump again in the air!
• Healing Powers - Heal your hearts back over time!
• Strength - Pick up opponents by tackling them!
• X-Ray Vision - See and target players through walls!

Hero Contracts!

While you fight the forces of evil (or work to unleash your sinful plan), complete Contracts to receive Power Crystals, which you’ll be able to exchange in the Hero Shop for limited edition cosmetics. Some Contracts require mastery of one of your unique powers, like the Sticky Fingers contract, which you’ll complete after scoring 10 KOs with the Super Strength super power. There are 14 unique Contracts—13 of them will grant 75 Power Crystals each. The final quest Contract, Hero’s Journey, is granted after you complete all the previous 13 Contracts, and gives you the Atomic Powered Ultimate Hologram.

Hero Bundle!

Will you choose to align with the scourge of the earth, and join forces with the Viper Leader? On second thought, he did grant an entire city super powers… but don’t let us sway your decision! Get the Hero Bundle, and let fate be your guide as you try on all the Legendary items, including the V.I.P.E.R. Head, Captain KO Mask, Tech Gloves and Cybersuit! Or, be an agent of chaos and mix and match with the 5 included Style Chips. Scandalous! This entire bundle can be yours for just 2400 Holobux, over 30% off if purchased separately.

Hero Shop!

Of course, every super brawler needs to not only strike fear into the opposition, but inspire hope in the hearts and minds of the bystanders. Because Knockout City is a city worth fighting for, and we’re here to do it, in style. You’ll find plenty more gear appropriate for your new Hero status in the Heroes Shop, where you can exchange your hard-earned Power Crystals for limited-time customizations like the Fly-By MVP pose, the perfect exit for any Superhero who just saved the team from certain destruction. If you’re coming up a little short, hop back into a Superheroes! match—each match you complete will award Power Crystals based on your total Match XP. But be sure to spend your Power Crystals before the event ends on Tuesday, September 14, 2021 at 12:00 p.m. noon UTC, or your Crystals will disappear as mysteriously as they arrived!
