Press release:
Manchester, November 15th, 2022.
The Manchester-based (The UK) indie games publisher No More Robots (“Descenders”, “Hypnospace Outlaw)” and indie games developer PanicBarn (“Not Tonight”), are today very excited and happy to announce that their soccer-themed comedy open-world RPG “Soccer Story“, is coming to PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) on November 29th, 2022.

A year after The Calamity tore apart the very foundations of soccer (it’s called football actually) as we know it. Since then, Soccer Inc. has taken full control of the sport and has BANNED anyone from even CONSIDERING kicking a ball around. Christiano Ronaldo? More like, Ronal-no!

Luckily, a magical football has descended from the heavens and has chosen you, The Savior of Soccer, and, –you’ll get a kick out of this – you’ve been tasked with saving the future of the sport and bringing harmony to the world once more.

Of course, there are two offsides to every story, so let’s give the obviously cartoonishly evil soccer-deniers the benefit of the doubt and let the story unfold.

– Drop your soccer ball and play anywhere! The world is full of goals, puzzles and secrets – it’s up to you to find them!
– Play a single-player story full of quirky characters, quests, rogue refs, and wacky soccer-adjacent sports
– Build your soccer career and do battle against the fiercest soccer teams like literal sharks, toddlers, old-age pensioners, and ninjas
– Save soccer and restore peace and harmony to the world
– Grab a friend for a four-player local multiplayer match mode with a full roster of teams and animal captains
– FISHING MINIGAME
