Quick steps to get started
Score more goals than your opponent before the clock runs out! Drive, jump and boost your way around the arena, hit the ball into the enemy goal, and defend your own. Use your boost to fly through the air and reach the ball before anyone else. In Challenge Maps, the goal is different — race through the obstacle course, hit every checkpoint, and reach the finish as fast as you can to beat your best time.
Desktop Controls:
W / A / S / D — Drive, steer and reverse

Tips: Hold jump and push a direction to flip toward the ball for a powerful hit. Collect the glowing boost pads around the arena to refill your boost. Use the walls and ramps to reach high balls.
What's it all about?
Nitro Ball is a fast-paced car soccer game played entirely in your browser. Drive a boost-powered car, launch off the walls, and smash a giant ball into your opponent's goal. Jump, flip, and fly through the air to pull off saves and score from anywhere on the pitch. Pick your mode: play a quick match against AI opponents in 1v1, 2v2 or 3v3, fight through a knockout tournament, or switch to Hockey mode where the ball is swapped for a heavy puck that slides across the ice. For a different kind of challenge, take on the Challenge Maps — timed obstacle courses that test your aerial control and precision driving, with your best times saved for every course. Customise your ride with a garage full of cars, wheels, decals, boost trails, toppers and over 250 antenna flags. Free Play mode lets you practice in an arena solo with no opponents.
