The Galactic Cup is a player-organized event.

Summary

The Sentinel Ball: 2018 Galactic Cup is a variation of the World Cup with a touch of No Man’s Sky to it in which civilizations and hubs compete.

This event takes place at the Galactic Frontier Hub.

  • There will be a bracket for each platform
  • The three final teams consisting of PS4, PC, and Xbox will not be eligible to compete because of lack of cross play so the winner will be decided by the nation with the most points scored in total.

Sentinel Soccer

Sentinel Ball is a soccer-like sport that replaces the soccer ball with the can-like object dropped from sentinels upon killing them. It is a much more simplified version of soccer and cannot be played until the release of NEXT. We know NEXT will involve a traditional multiplayer experience. Hopefully, this will allow for synchronized play in which multiple players can see and pass the same sentinel can which allows us to play this sport.

Rules

Failure to abide to these rules results in a foul in which the opposing team gains possession of the ball at the center field.

  • No positions - There are no specific positions such as goalkeepers or defenders.
