Soccer Legends Patch Notes — May 20, 2016
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Soccer Legends is back to the drawing board, existing players can request a refund
On May 3rd we (SOEDESCO) reached an agreement with Digital Lightning on the sale of the IP of Soccer Legends. In that announcement we promised a new update within three weeks so here we are with a new update.
In the previous update we mentioned that we see big potential in Soccer Legends but that we were still exploring our next step now that we are in control of the project. We’ve play tested the game internally numerous times, including a closed session with gamers from outside the company.
What we saw, and what our testers reported was short and conclusive. The game concept is interesting and the visual style is also appealing. However, the game did not perform to our standards and as such we don’t think it publishable in its current form.
In short, we are now thinking about where we want to take the concept of Soccer Legends but it might take quite a while before we reach a point where we feel confident that we can publish the game. Furthermore, the game we might end up releasing may not resemble the original product that gamers got on board with during the Early Access.
We recognize that we need to take the project back to the drawing table and for that reason we would like to offer a full refund to everyone who owns the game. Details are still being finalised, we'll give a heads up as soon people can start refunding. This Steam page will remain online since we feel that this is a good place to get in touch with the community and it will allow the current owners to stay up to date on the future of Soccer Legends.
We hope that this feels like the right course and moving forward we’ll share any news we might have on the progress of Soccer Legends in this community hub. If you have any questions or other feedback, then please leave your thoughts in the comments.
