About the Game

Pixel Cup Soccer is a casual retro-style soccer game, a great evolution from the previous edition. It's dynamic, arcade, with fast-paced gameplay, just the fun part of soccer! The game has great pixel art graphics like the games from the 80s and 90s, evoking nostalgia.

  Maintenance Update

  CPU controlled matches As requested by some users, we have made a change: now the player's team does not change its strategy during the match when it is set to be controlled by the CPU. Bug Fixes Fixed a bug where if a player stumbled during a penalty kick and the ball went out of the soccer field, a goal kick was not awarded. Fixed a bug in the injured player hint displayed at halftime, which sometimes could not be closed, forcing an exit from the game. Thank! :) https://store.steampowered.com/app/1620540/Pixel_Cup_Soccer__Ultimate_Edition/

  New Cup and More!

  Africa Cup of Nations Cup We've added this new, fulfilling a request from several users who have been asking for it! :) Improvements Tutorial Match We've made several improvements to the tutorial match in the "How to Play" section, hoping to assist newcomers in taking their first steps in the game! Penalties We've made a minor improvement to the penalty kick system. Now, the player won't fall without kicking the ball when the timing is incorrect... they may still fall if the timing isn't good, but they'll still kick the ball! Bugs We've fixed 2 bugs that were recently reported: During a penalty kick, sometimes the goalkeeper would remain waiting for the ball after it was kicked. Although this happened very sporadically, it was quite annoying to have to exit the game to fix it, as abandoning the match would result in a loss. In a recent update, an error was introduced that prevented the change of selected player using the right analog stick. New area: Contact Us! We've added a button in the main menu with information on how to contact us, so everyone can follow us on social media or join our Discord! :) Thank! :) https://store.steampowered.com/app/1620540/Pixel_Cup_Soccer__Ultimate_Edition/

We want to reward everyone who helps us grow our player base by seeking matches online, and to that end, we've created the World Champions Cup as a way of thanking you!

In addition, for this tournament, we've also created a new stadium and a variant of the Global Cup... and of course, a new achievement for those who manage to win it! We hope you like the idea as much as we do :) MORE - We've rebalanced the teams in the D league of Career Mode to make it more accessible. - We've also adjusted "Test Team" to reduce its aggressiveness in marking. - Finally, we have fixed small bugs and minor details.
