What’s new
Version 1.1 · Updated October 22, 2026
Multiplayer is here. Play someone sitting next to you — watch against watch, iPhone against iPhone, or watch against iPhone. Every rally you win now earns points, and there are 50 things to spend them on: win celebrations, ball and paddle skins, titles, and abilities for single player. Also in this update: sparks when the ball hits a paddle or a wall, a dotted line showing where a serve is headed, and a bigger playfield on iPhone with the paddle clear of your thumb.
