A few weeks ago at E3 2019, between a series of Tom Clancy related first-person shooters, Ubisoft revealed Roller Champions, an online multiplayer sports game loosely based on the real world sport of roller derby.
Roller derby is a fast-paced contact sport played on roller skates, mostly by women. It’s very welcoming to queer skaters, and it’s all about getting around the track fast, without too many people knocking you around along the way.
As an active roller derby player, I was ecstatic to see the sport I love finally used as the basis for a video game. Sure, it’s not a 1:1 recreation, but it gets the most important things right. Thanks to its core similarities, there’s a lot you can learn about being better at Roller Champions by studying how pros play roller derby.
