Being an ignorant American I totally expected this one to be about the NFL until I went to look for a trailer. Its a soccer league management sim that’s available for Google Stadia as well as Steam. There is also a mobile and touch version.

The original Shenmue for the Dreamcast in 1999 was at the time the most expensive video game ever made. It ended up with a cult following but wasn’t a commercial success. The third installment was crowd funded via Kickstarter where it raised over 6 million to become the platform's highest funded video game to date. The action adventure title continues the story of Ryo Hzuki and his quest to find who killed his father.
