Hare says: ‘We have got a bespoke list of legends for every single club in the world. Sociable Soccer ’22 will also have a FIFA Ultimate Team style system that will introduce legendary players. So effectively, we’re almost branching development into the next generation of engine.’ There are improvements we can make to the game mechanics, and the ball mechanics. We’ll change something with the game’s state machine, which allows us to have better use of the camera in the game, and better use of the transitions between what the players are doing. ‘There’s a bunch of other technical stuff that will be done under the bonnet. They will still be cards, but we’re adding a view of your team standing there, and when you level up, you’ll see your player characters, and we want to have some customisation of those – how much we can put in by April, we don’t know yet.

At the end of a selected number of games, we will then determine whether you get promoted to the next league, go down to the league below or stay where you are.’ ![]() When you unlock a win streak, which you do at level 5, and when you unlock the clan clash stuff at level 10, those drop in as extended fixtures in the fixture list.

And we’d done the Sensible Soccer update in 2006, so I had some ideas about a football game and I wanted to base it around the concept of clans, the concept that, as football supporters, we all actually know which clan we gravitate to in the football world.’ But its origins go further back than those games, to 2008: ‘I’d done a little bit of work on Football Superstars as a consultant – a Real Madrid game. If you play Sociable Soccer on Apple Arcade, you will find that while its frenetically fast on-field action is reminiscent of Sensible Soccer it also has elements that are more in keeping with the games Hare has name-checked. ![]()
