In that way, it might even appeal to people who don’t really like football games! Miguel had a great time with it for our review, writing: Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions is the wild and hyper-stylised sports game I’ve been craving for over a decade. The gameplay is quick to pick up, but hard to master, and the over-the-top anime transitions and animations that are sprinkled throughout the action make it endlessly entertaining. Offline and online versus is sure to give you hours of entertainment if you’re the competitive type, while the hefty amount of single-player story content can keep you just as equally entertained. Anyone who’s been waiting for the next great arcade sports game need not look any further – it’s here, and its name is Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions. Catch the full review here.
