Pure Pool Cues Up for Next-Gen Summer Release
There’s way more than just shiny balls racked for launch…
8th May 2014 – Super-devs VooFoo Studios and Indie Games Publisher Ripstone announced today that Pure Pool; the latest iteration in the Pure series will break onto Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft in addition to PC via Steam and PlayStation®4 early this summer! Featuring signature super-smooth gameplay Pure Pool is set to serve up the most authentic pool experience on the market – and will be available to both Xbox One, via the ID@Xbox self-publishing program as well as Steam and PlayStation®4 users at launch!
Improving on the unprecedented formula of the critically-acclaimed Hustle Kings, the awesome team at VooFoo has achieved a whole new level of realism in Pure Pool – with their fine-tuned physics engine and beautiful graphics. But there’s way more than responsive balls and HD cloth to look forward to in the ultimate next-gen pool game! This generation of console has already got balls and Pure Pool delivers a connected experience both on and offline comparable only to real life pool.
Whether you wish to hone your skills solo or weigh up against the competition Pure Pool has been built from the ground-up on the premise of connecting players. As a result the game will immerse you in a living, breathing pool hall, with all the buzz and vibrancy of a real pool-playing environment!
Pure Pool also offers live online Multiplayer so you can compete against worthy opponents in both head-to-head matches and in global online leagues. As if that wasn’t enough; Pure Pool will also track your individual gaming-style, creating a unique DNA profile as you play. You can even play against an AI rendition of your friends and foes when they’re not online.
“We plan to set the bar on digital pool higher than ever before with Pure Pool,” says Mark Williams, Technology Director at VooFoo Studios. “Since the success of Pure Chess and Hustle Kings, we wanted to follow up with an even better game for next-gen systems—one that would truly emulate a real experience, and captivate both pool fans and the general gaming populace alike.”
