Some games are just nice. Something you can stick on your Steam Deck or Switch and just chill out with for a while. One such game, which also happens to be a day one release on Xbox Game Pass for consoles and PC, is Soccer Story. Given that we’re in peak football season at the moment, I gave it a whirl and came away rather impressed with its mixture of RPG, football, and puzzle gameplay. In fact, I’m enjoying Soccer Story more than I am playing FIFA 23. What an underdog story!
Soccer Story is full of knowing one-liners and little in-jokes, and the game’s entire premise is just as out-there. Football has been banned, meaning no one can just pick up a ball and kick it. It’s outlawed. Soccer Inc has taken full control of the sport, meaning kids can’t just play football with each other, local teams have ceased to be, and no one has seen a football in the flesh for a year. That is until a magical football arrives and it’s up to you to bring the beautiful game back.
The premise is an odd one, for sure, but the game is wrapped up in the kind of whimsy and charm you’d find in a Pokemon game, so it just kind of works. The adventure is centered on finding and bringing back old football clubs, each with a club office located in a new area to explore. These clubs are just as bizarre as the game itself, with toddlers, OAPs, and even sharks making up teams that you can play against.
