Evaluation

Pure Pool Pro launched on February 12, 2026 and has been actively supported since. The developer has shipped a steady stream of updates: a Week 1 Patch on February 18, 2026 addressing camera, controls, and visual issues; a Month 1 Patch on March 17, 2026 adding competitive stats, gameplay rebalancing, DualSense haptics (coming soon), and four cosmetic DLC item packs; a controller vibration and DualSense haptics update on April 10, 2026; Patch 3 on May 21, 2026 introducing a full Ranked Game Mode, Lag for Break, and the 9-Ball Push Out rule; and Hotfix #4 on July 16, 2026 resolving local multiplayer, online stat tracking, and a long-standing desync bug. Crucially, the July 16, 2026 hotfix post explicitly announced that a Snooker Expansion Pack is now in full development — fulfilling a commitment the developer made before launch (January 26, 2026 Q&A) when they confirmed a paid Snooker DLC would come post-launch. The same post announced the Xbox Series X|S version launching July 23, 2026. These are concrete, developer-confirmed pieces of upcoming content. All four currently listed DLC item packs (Cyber, Free, Classic, and Party) were released on March 17, 2026 and are cosmetic in nature.

IMMERSIVE POOL VENUES

Play under pressure in the Tetradome, a dramatic 1,000-seat arena built for pro-level intensity, or take a breath in Rackhaus, a stylish rooftop club designed for cozy matchups with a killer view. Each environment brings its own vibe, soundscape, and impressive lighting to the table.

Show off your style in online play to let everyone know exactly what you’re capable of.


MASSIVE SOUNDTRACK
Over 80 songs spanning genres from laid-back jazz - echoing the fan-favourite music from the first game - to high-energy tracks that rise to match the excitement of high-stakes play.
