  • wonder if you can get trophies or achievements in those 10 days!

    • No need to wonder:

      This isn’t some level-capped, red-tape teaser with gated access, either. You’ll have the full game at your disposal.

      What does all this mean? Well, for starters, from day one, you’ll be able to Crew Up with friends and unlock bonus content like Epic Crew Cosmetics, up to 500 more Holobux, and Season 1 XP boosts to accelerate your progression when Season 1 starts

      I think if you buy during the event it will transfer everything over.

  • Will this be considered as a Free to Play title (so no PS+ required) for those 10 days?

      I cannot say for sure but I would think so as otherwise it severely curb their audience on the PlayStation.

      Here is what I could find:

      We’ll be celebrating our launch by letting everyone on all platforms play free for a limited time. (source:https://blog.playstation.com/2021/02/25/welcome-to-knockout-city-the-dodgebrawl-capital-of-the-world/)

        Thanks. I guess we’ll just wait and see. It does state “everyone” so I’m taking that literally

  • Stoked to play this after work today!
