Game overview

Basketball Stars: Multijoueur is a one-on-one basketball duel rather than a full five-a-side game, which keeps everything close and physical. Dribbling, shooting and blocking are all in your hands, and because both players are on the same small court, a missed shot usually turns into an immediate attack the other way. Reading your opponent matters more than shot accuracy.

This title is best suited to players who want quick one-on-one basketball duels.
