Evaluation

Beastieball is in Early Access on Steam, and the developer has publicly committed to a full 1.0 release targeted for early 2027. The January 9, 2026 'Road to 1.0' post laid out nine Milestone updates in total and said six remained at that time. Milestone 5 of 9 shipped on June 11, 2026, and Milestone 6 of 9 shipped on August 19, 2026, with a hotfix following on August 31, 2026. Earlier major updates shipped on December 18, 2025 and March 19, 2026. The same January 2026 post says a post-1.0 expansion called The Far Out is being actively developed. Milestones 7 through 9, the 1.0 launch, and The Far Out are all still outstanding, so the game is still receiving planned content. An experimental balance patch for Milestone 6 was also posted on August 3, 2026, showing development work in progress.

About this game

Coach a sports team of Beasties in this turn-based volleyball RPG!

Beasties' teamwork is powered up by the relationships they form together. Whether they become BESTIES, PARTNERS, RIVALS or SWEETHEARTS they'll get a powerful combo move that's unique to every pair and can turn the tide in a tough match!

Explore an open world and meet a varied cast of Ranked coaches, each with their own story. You'll have to defeat them and raise your ranking if you want to compete in the CROWN SERIES.

Bosses are all revealed on your map from the start and can be defeated in any order. With each one you defeat, the others become stronger, so no matter which way you go you'll have a tough and exciting rise to the top.

Play sports in strategic turn-based encounters on a tiny tactics grid. When you have the ball, you have multiple actions to pass and set up a devastating attack. When the other team has the ball, you'll have to anticipate their attack and make a defense play.

Every Beastie has unique traits, strengths and weaknesses and they have many ways to work together, lending a great deal of depth and strategy to every match.

There's more to making it in the Beastieball League than playing sports! Ranked coaches you defeat become available to hang out, allowing you to build your friendship and see extra story.

As the plot unfolds you'll meet friends, rivals, corporate sponsors, and even a mysterious Sports King with grand ambitions...
