Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe is a sports action video game developed by The Bitmap Brothers and initially released for the Amiga and Atari ST in 1990. It is a sequel to the 1988 game Speedball, and therefore, it is based on a violent futuristic sport that draws on elements of handball and ice hockey, and rewards violent play as well as goals. The concept of the game is reminiscent of the 1975 film Rollerball. The original game was developed by The Bitmap Brothers, with various remakes for many platforms since being published.
The game was released for multiple platforms: the Acorn Archimedes, Atari Jaguar, Atari ST, Amiga, Amiga CD32, IBM PC compatibles, Commodore 64, Mega Drive, Master System, Game Boy and Game Boy Advance.
