Why Are We Launching the Test Now?
To be completely honest, the version we're releasing today is far from our vision of the "perfect basketball game." It's not a finished product—some parts may still feel rough around the edges, and we need your feedback. But we chose to invite you in now because we firmly believe:
"A game truly belongs to its players, and the only way to build something great is to involve them from the very beginning."
This test version represents a milestone in our journey. It carries: our passion for basketball culture. Our commitment to authentic. Our belief that a real basketball community starts with its players. This is just the beginning. Real magic happens to you.
This Is the FREE DUNK We Want to Build With You
To us, FREE DUNK was never just about competition or winning—it’s about culture.
It’s the quick match you jump into after work to unwind. It’s the unstoppable teamwork when you squad up with friends on voice chat. It’s the underdog moment when a 160cm guard outplays a towering center.
This game is about freedom, inclusivity, and breaking limits. You don’t need to fit into "the meta"—you just need to be you.

A Message About This Test...
Since pre-registration opened, we've received lots of player feedback and encouragement. Some suggested adding email registration to avoid SMS verification issues, while others wanted more non-competitive gameplay options for solo or casual play.
We carefully read and discussed every suggestion. Many details have already been adjusted and tested in this version. Every comment you leave, every bug report you submit, even simple observations like "the controls feel weird" - these all provide invaluable motivation for us to keep improving. Your participation and feedback are what drive FREE DUNK forward.
