SisyFox, a German-based game studio creating physical gaming experiences that blend digital worlds with full‑body play, presents FoxBall 6.0, heralding new features, major performance improvements, and a more flexible approach to how operators can access and use the SisyFox product range.

SisyFox products include FoxBall, a giant game controller, and Jumplings, a multiplayer jumping game, with a focus on active gaming for indoor leisure spaces.


New licensing options

A major update was the introduction of new licensing options, allowing customers to choose between Lifetime and Subscription plans.

This update aims to simplify onboarding for operators with FoxBall and to provide greater flexibility to accommodate various business models, applications, and investment approaches.

The subscription model provides an affordable entry point, greatly lowers the initial investment, and grants full access to all software and game updates. With an active internet connection, operators' systems remain up to date and ready to operate at all times.

This approach offers many operators a more flexible and commercially viable way to use Jumplings and FoxBall, especially in markets where adaptability and cost efficiency are becoming more crucial.

Approximately six months after its launch, FoxBall 6.0 represents a significant milestone in the ongoing evolution of SisyFox's product lineup.

This latest update enhances gameplay across nearly all titles, improves the stability of multiplayer modes, and introduces new logos and loading screens for each game.

A redesigned Games Hub

The team has also fully revamped the Games Hub, giving it a fresh, modern, and more engaging appearance as the initial point of contact with the games.

One of our biggest accomplishments is the significant performance optimisation, which has doubled the frame rate on the same hardware. This results in smoother, more intense gameplay for all users.

Overall, this update enhances the experience, making it feel more polished, smoother, and more exciting right from the first interaction with FoxBall.

This release highlights the company's aim to make Jumplings and FoxBall more accessible, adaptable, and future-ready for operators, thanks to updated licensing options, software enhancements, and a refreshed visual identity.

Sandro Engel, founder and CEO, says: "This update is a major step forward for our products. We have significantly increased performance, enhanced gameplay, and refreshed the look across all titles.

"For many operators, however, the new licensing model may be the most valuable part of this release. With the 365 Support Flatrate already included in the new subscription license, operators benefit from fast and reliable assistance within 24 hours whenever support is needed."

SisyFox also recently launched a new pay-per-play system specifically designed for operators in the indoor leisure and attractions sector.
