Breaker, today announced that Sociable Soccer, Hare’s latest
fast-paced, arcade take on the beautiful game, will launch in
summer 2017 on Steam Early Access with Xbox One, PlayStation 4

“Sociable Soccer is a super quick, adrenaline soaked football
action game, an unholy alliance of Guardiola’s tiki taka and
Klopp’s gegenpressing, where ultra sharp passing and shooting
can easily by thwarted by a well timed slide tackle.. something
like Rocket League in boots”, said Jon Hare, Designer and
Director of Sociable Soccer. “After nearly two years in
development we are excited to be launching soon on Steam Early
Access. The game has a whole world of soccer already in place
and online and offline matches are playing like a dream. As we
sprint towards full commercial launch in late 2017 we invite
gamers and football lovers to become part of our game changing,
new sports franchise as we add new features, game modes and
updates every few weeks”.

around the world and over 30,000 players, with 67 international
football trophies to compete for and lighter friendly game modes
