About the Game

It's time to burn some calories and dish out some slaps!

Shady humans, dim-witted mutant pigs, crazed knights, and more—all despise each other, but agree on one thing: making that hatred entertaining!

On the dusty ground of these devastated deserts, they invite you to join them in chaotic sports matches that’ll leave you scarred in less time than it takes to shout "ROUGH RIVALS!"

  • Be brutal: Choose from a roster of 20 characters to send crushing blows. And if you’re more of a tactician — which we call “coward” here — opt for a technical game of dodging and passing to outplay your opponent!

  • Be cunning: Between bouts of this chaos, organize your team, recruit and upgrade your players with a selection of 60 skills to create powerful synergies.

  • Be brutal AGAIN: Forget about justice, fair play, and the obscure rules of the ancient sport of American football. In the Scorched Wastes, there’s only one rule: bring the ball to the end zone and clear a path to get there!

Challenge your friends in split-screen to relive the good old couch gaming days, and bully your loved ones in a game where no one really gets hurt!
