Laser League is Out Now on the Xbox One

The arcade-style multiplayer action sport game Laser League is now Available. It is published by indie publisher 505 Games and developed by development studio Roll7.

Said to offer up intense online or local multiplayer matches with friends, Laser League’s frenetic, yet intuitive, gameplay is easy to play but difficult to master, in a throwback to the heyday of gaming’s more approachable arcade action. Oh, and just so you know, Laser League is currently free to Microsoft Gamepass Members.

We know that a few of you readers out there may not know much about this game, so let’s enlighten you. The premise is that a new high-speed contact sport becomes the thing to do, or watch, in the year 2150. It pits players against the opposition for control of nodes that bathe the arena in deadly lasers. Evading rival colored beams, teams attempt to eliminate their opponents with speed, skill and strategy. Special offensive and defensive abilities – as well as game-changing power-ups on the arena floor – provide an edge at crucial moments. 

Laser League launches with a wealth of content refined in its Early Access program, including:

• 6 unique classes; Blade, Smash, Thief, Ghost, Shock and Snipe
• 16 maps with unique laser patterns
• 15 power-ups with the possibility to drastically alter the match
• 12 modifier effects to adjust each class to best suit your playstyle
• 4 international stadiums packed with cheering fans
• Over 250 unique character customizations

505 Games and Roll7 are also launching the NewMotion Brand DLC, which includes two new player models, eight kits, exclusive laser patterns, emojis and character portraits for $1.99. The added content and DLC will be available on Xbox One later in May.
