Legend Bowl News

Friendly Update

Hey Friends! We're excited to bring our fans this update we so appropriately named the Friendly Update due to our NEW 4 player local multiplayer co-op mode.

Until now you only had the option of playing by yourself on a team versus another human or the computer and now the playing field has completely changed for the better. You can now play any combination of players on a team anywhere from 1 to 4 players total across all game modes. We have been having so much fun testing this game using Steam Remote Play and let us tell you it's super easy to hook up with your buddies for some good ole fashion gridiron football!🏈

We've recorded this video to discuss various aspects on how the new multiplayer mode works, so we'll let you watch it to learn how to get the most out of this mode, instead of having you read all the details here. It's pretty straight forward, but there are some small nuances you'll want to familiarize yourself with in order to get started on the right foot and be ready when you hit the field with your buddies!

In addition to this mode, we've also been listening to everyone's feedback and working around the clock updating the game for a better experience on and off the field. 🐞 Bugs were SQUASHED!, gameplay was improved in many areas and so much more was added into this update.

We also wanted to send a special thanks to the guys over at The Angry Joe Show who recommended we spend time on this mode and boy were they right. It's just fun!

Again, please continue to report any bugs on our Discord channel if you want to help! Thank you for your support, and for playing Legend Bowl!!

📢 Thank you to everyone for reporting issues and bugs from this last update!
