Acclaim recently announced Super Basketball Classics Featuring the World-Famous Harlem Globetrotters, a new entry in its beloved retro sports lineup that fuses old-school arcade basketball with the iconic flash, flair, and fun of the Harlem Globetrotters. Inspired by classic 8- and 16-bit hoops games and rebuilt for modern players, the game delivers fast, pick-up-and-play action packed with trick shots, couch co-op chaos, and nonstop highlight-reel moments.
The game, coming to PC and home consoles, will be making its debut in conjunction with the Harlem Globetrotters 100th anniversary season, which tipped off in late December and will be celebrated around the world all year long.
From playground rivalries to cheat-code-style moves, Super Basketball Classics Featuring the World-Famous Harlem Globetrotters reimagines basketball as both competitive arcade action and pure spectacle. Whether players are running a full season, challenging friends head-to-head, or dazzling the crowd with over-the-top Globetrotter performances, every match is designed to feel like a show.
