“From learning the basics of the game to perfecting a trick shot that drops into an opponent’s strike zone at the last second, gamers of all skill levels will be able to compete in Sparc’s dynamic physical gameplay,” said Morgan Godat, the game’s executive producer at CCP Games.
Sparc enables players to join one-on-one matches with friends online, or find opponents via matchmaking.

From the cut of the compression suit, to headgear and knuckle guards, a wide variety of elements can be personalized.
