RealSports Volleyball, published by Atari in 1982 for the Atari 2600, is part of the RealSports series, the company's bid to offer sports simulations more faithful than its previous sports games, with serve, spike, and block animations designed to get closer to the real rhythm of beach volleyball. It allows one- or two-player matches per team, with a ball physics meant to feel more consistent than that of the competition's generic sports games. It's a representative piece of how Atari, already in the first half of the 80s, tried to set its own sports catalog apart from third parties with a recognizable umbrella brand.
