Eleven Pickleball

Eleven Pickleball is a sports simulation game from For Fun Labs, the studio behind Eleven Table Tennis. It recreates pickleball with physics-based paddle play, and the developer calls it the leading simulator of the sport. It came to the Meta Horizon Store on November 8, 2023.

How it plays

You can face AI opponents in singles or doubles, or take on other players online. For practice there is a ball machine you can program in detail, choosing the spin, angle and speed of each shot before firing it at yourself.

• Training drills: Dink, Drop, Slam, Reaction and Wall.
• Singleplayer 1v1 and 2v2 games against advanced AI.
• Options to change ball visibility and color so it is easier to follow.
• Court appearance settings to change the look of where you play.

The developer suggests a paddle adapter that attaches to your controller for the most realistic physics; it is optional.

Multiplayer

Online play covers 1v1 and 2v2 matches against people around the world.

Comfort

Meta rates it comfortable for most people. The store lists support for playing sitting, standing or at room scale. You play with controllers. The store also shows Meta's mixed reality safety notice, so give yourself room to swing.
