South American football goes Deluxe

Jagged Alliance publisher Strategy First has tapped Argentinean developer Evoluxion to create a new South American football game, Football Deluxe, for PCs. The game is scheduled for release in Europe during the first quarter of 2005, with the North American release to follow in the second quarter. Football Deluxe combines sports and strategy. In the game, players assume the role of a football manager and professional coach who chooses game strategies and team formations. Players get the full managerial experience by choosing their dream team, coaching players through problems, giving press conferences, and handling fans. The gameplay also includes real-time football matches where managers can see how their strategies pay off.
