Is Knockout City free? How to download, prices, and more

Knockout City, the latest action video game from Electronic Arts and developed by Velan Studios is now available, bringing a new adventure where players can experience a reinvention of the classic dodgeball in chaotic environments full of power-ups and various game modes.

For those who tried the beta of this new title (which surpassed over a million players), they already know some of the features this game has brought with it like its battle pass, its different maps and customizations, and last but not least, its cross platform play.

However, for those who haven’t tried it but don’t want to spend a single penny, EA has announced a new special event called Block Party, where everyone will be able to try the game from now on until 30th May, for free.

Knockout City: How to download and try for free

Thanks to the Block Party, the full game will be completely free to access, allowing you to try out new contracts, listings and content EA will publish at launch without having to worry about them being out of reach.

This trial period is available through any of the major platforms and consoles, so you can get access to it wherever you want to play, but with the restriction you can only get one copy per account.
