Please Note: As of the 0.19 update, Huttball will no longer be a permanent game mode.
Huttball is a Squad-vs-Squad game mode in which two teams strive to take a ball and get it into the enemy's goal. Teams must balance their battle with control of the Huttball and defense of their goal to be successful.
You can join a Huttball game by selecting the Play button on the bottom right-hand side of your Home screen.
Note: The Huttball mode unlocks at Player Level 11.
You will be matched with other players to form a Squad of 4. When you have chosen your Hunter, tap the Select button.
When the match starts, a 15- second countdown begins until the Huttball is released. The match timer starts when the Huttball has been picked up from its starting position.
Only the team in possession of the Huttball can score a goal. When in possession of the Huttball it will be displayed with that team's color. Teams gain possession by picking up the Huttball or affecting it with knockback.
The team in possession of the ball will see an in-world marker above the enemy goal. If you throw or carry the ball into the opposing goal you will score and the 15 second countdown timer for the release of the Huttball will begin again.
Hunters cannot move fast when they are in possession of the Huttball. The Huttball cannot be picked up whilst using a movement ability and when Hunters use a movement ability while in possession of the Huttball, they will drop it.
The objective of Huttball is to be the first team to score 3 goals or have more than the opposing team when the time runs out. If there's a draw when the time ends, there is 1 minute of overtime where the next goal wins.
