Gameplay

Virtual Volleyball is the first volleyball game using polygons to be published for any game system. [2]

Reception

Next Generation reviewed the Saturn version of the game, rating it one star out of five, and stated, "There are inherent problems in doing a volleyball game when considering the matter of trying to control an entire team, but Virtual Volleyball seems to make no effort to solve any of these problems, leaving the gamer with an extremely vacant feeling." [2]
