MicroProse Soccer: 33 year old soccer game released on Steam
MicroProse Soccer
If you are fed up with modern soccer games like FIFA 21 and are more into retro food, you should definitely pay a visit to the Steam online shop. From now on, and somewhat surprisingly, the now 33-year-old MicroProse Soccer is available for purchase there. We also have a retro special for MicroPose Soccer.The publisher Ziggurat Games is responsible for the release. It made it its business to play as many retro games as possible some time ago dust off and publish via Steam. It appears to be a case of MicroProse Soccer, the MS-DOS version that runs under DOSBox. All of the content and features known from the original are also on board in the Steam version. So you can choose one of a total of 23 teams and go hunting for goals with them. In addition to games against the AI, you can also play against a friend in local multiplayer mode. Nothing has been changed in the graphics and sound of the original either. The system requirements, which we do not want to withhold from you, are correspondingly low:
Operating system: Windows 7 or higher Processor: Pentium 4 or better RAM: 256 MByte RAM Graphics: DirectX 9 (WDDM 1.0 or better) DirectX: Version 9.0c Storage space: 76 MByte available storage space Recommended editorial content At this point you can find external content from [PLATTFORM].

Incidentally, there will be a discount campaign to coincide with the start of sales on Steam. Accordingly, you will receive a 33 percent discount on the purchase of MicroProse Soccer until March 12, 2021. So the retro soccer game currently only costs 3.81 euros.

Ranked! The best football video games ever made
End-to-end footy viewed through God’s own eyeballs, with heavenly results. Sensi is the impeccably tailored grandchild of every top-down game to precede it, delivering an endless array of banana-shaped thunderstrikes, physics-defying tackles and Schmeichelian saves, all at a brilliantly breathless pace.
At launch the Amiga game packed in 24,000 players and 1,500 teams, and even today there’s a bustling community devoted to keeping it up to date. The fantastic Mega Drive version also warrants a doff of the cap – but much like every friend and foe, before or since, it’s simply no match for this pixel-perfect title winner.
