Before EA and Konami ruled the footballing world with their FIFA and PES franchises, the humble game of soccer was delivered via the arcade form, doing away with realism, not worrying about rules, and just ensuring that gamers from all walks of life could have fun. And as Golazo! launches on Xbox One and PS4, that fun is fast returning.
Forget about what you think of in a football game and start harking back to decades gone by as Golazo! tears up the rule book and ignores the ref to deliver a football game that is all about two things – fun and teamwork.
Priced up at £12.49 and available to download this very instant, Golazo! is a world away from the staid realism and simulated opportunities provided by the brilliant FIFA 20 and eFootball PES 2020 (yep, still a silly name), to instead run the arcade route.
Taking to the field of play you’ll be left with a game that oozes in the fun stakes, letting you grab a controller, kick back and just power on through with your mates, proving that you are, once and for all, the ultimate street footballer. With a modern approach to some classic gameplay, you can be sure that you’ll be in for a treat with what Golazo! delivers.
Delivered with a dynamic 2.5D arcade style, this is possibly the perfect party game for a chilling afternoon with friends. With local multiplayer modes and an utterly crazy vintage approach, Golazo is an ideal choice for Couch & Party gamers!
