Soccer Slammers

The game is an arcade-styled soccer video game; unlike the FIFA series of soccer video games, which focus on realism in gameplay and presentation, Soccer Slam features exaggerated and simplified gameplay, similar to NBA Jam's take on basketball. [1][2] The game features two versus two gameplay with short, pixelated fictional characters in the art style of Minecraft.[3][4] The game features local multiplayer with up to four players.[5]

The game was first announced in late January 2018.[3] The game is being developed by Atooi, the company formed by Jools Watsham after the dissolution of his prior co-founded company - Renegade Kid.[1][6] Watsham described the game as being heavily influenced from NBA Jam.[7] The game made its first appearance at Game Developers Conference in March 2018.[8] The game was initially planned to have video capturing features at releases, but the feature was delayed into plans for a future free downloadable content (DLC) pack after release, due to technical problems outside of the developer's control.[9] The game is scheduled for release prior to the 2018 FIFA World Cup in July.[4] The game was submitted to Nintendo for approval for release on the Nintendo Switch eShop in May 2018.
