Striker Superstars announced
Cybersports, the maker of Football Superstars, the football MMO game has announced their new browser based football game, Striker Superstars. The game is powered by Unity 3D engine and features content from Football Superstars with more accessibility. We have limited private beta invitations for you.
If you like soccer games and MMOs, you probably know about Football Superstars. The game was published in 2008 by Cybersports and we had recently reviewed it here.
Cybersports today announced a new game they build on Football Superstars' unique concept. This new game is different from Football Superstars as it's a browser based MMO game that runs on UNITY 3D engine. (Battlestar Galactica Online and Drakensang were some of the other games powered by UNITY 3D.)
Striker Superstars will enter its private beta soon but there is no information yet about the release date. We will contact Cybersports and post more information here at DevilsMMO.com this week.
Read the official announcement below and follow the link at the bottom of this page to get your private beta invitation.
CyberSports are proud to announce the imminent release of Striker Superstars, their new browser-based football game. Utilising the Unity game engine, Striker Superstars will allow you to log on from anywhere and play, as well as giving Mac users a chance to get in on the Superstars action, yes you heard it right this game is both PC & Mac compatible.
Gameplay
Gamers play against and alongside strangers or friends in fast paced five a side football action. If they register their account they will be able to develop their character by training their stats, equipping items and unlocking achievements through their performance on pitch. These achievements reward the player with far more than bragging rights and a pretty graphic. Each time a player unlocks an achievement they receive a token which can then be used to upgrade any of the items in their inventory.
The game uses the current 5 a-side match engine from Football Superstars, but has been adapted it to work outside of the FS game client and allow for immediate and highly accessible gameplay.
Accessibility
One of the greatest benefits of the new game is that it greatly enhances accessibility. There is no big client to download and install. Technical requirements are so minimal that practically anyone with a computer and an internet connection will be able to play and what’s more you don’t even have to register! New players can log in as a guest and experience match play within seconds, but if you wish to chat with your fellow players and save your character’s progression then you’ll need to register an account.
Two Games, One Family
The release of Striker Superstars does not signify a departure from Football Superstars. To the contrary Striker Superstars is there to complement Football Superstars, not replace it. Players who want to take their experience further and experience larger matches of 7 and 11 a-side, as well as joining persistent Player Managed Clubs can only do so via Football Superstars, which remains the primary game. Meanwhile, players of Football Superstars will be able to jump on and play with friends who would not otherwise be able to take part and grab some quick games during free time or a lunch break.Getting Involved
