Futebol!

from the You kick I catch dept.

"CHICAGO, IL – JUNE 9, 2008 – Interzone Entertainment, parent company of Interzone Games and a BigWorld licensee, has announced its long-secret massively multiplayer online sports title, Interzone Futebol. The PC MMOG will first release in Portuguese for the Brazilian market, home to millions of avid futebol (soccer in the U.S.) fans and players, closely followed by international versions for worldwide release."

Another BigWorld licensee opens it's kimono this June with an MMO take on the little known athletic game - soccer. With so few real-world players of this arcane sports pastime, it is yet to be seen how this title will fare. A truly international development, with resources in sunny Australia, China, the US and Brazil all contributing to the game. Futebol!
