Pro Jank Footy kicks off arcade chaos on PS5 this August

Powerbomb Games’ Pro Jank Footy, a retro-arcade homage to Aussie Rules, launches August 12 on PS5. The high-scoring, fast-paced game uses a simple core mechanic where after every goal the opposing team picks from 150+ power-ups, enabling wild chaos like extra teams, transforming players into seagulls or cars, or even turning the match into a surreal spectacle. Modes include Pro Jank Footy, Normal Footy, Season Mode, Watch Mode, Kick-to-Kick, couch co-op and online play, plus arcade cabinet tournaments rolling out in Australian pubs to build a live scene.
