Coach Mode Update

Have you ever wanted to simply put down the gamepad and just play from the sidelines? Well... now you can with our all new Coach Mode! We've taken player control out of the equation and put the playbook in your hands!

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]Checkout this video as we showcase the new mode and also talk about some upcoming studio news!

Coach mode is a new setting you can toggle ON or OFF before a match begins. This new mode is available across all of our game modes and we've been having a fun time playing as the coach. We think it's really cool to manage your team and call plays to see if they can execute plays how you envisioned them inside the mind of a coach.

The setting can be found in the Settings > Gameplay menu and also on the Team Select screen by clicking the right trigger to show settings.

⚠️Please keep in mind when playing this mode you can only control up to 2 teams at a time. It doesn't work with multiple controllers per team, as only 1 player can call plays thus making additional controllers irrelevant.

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!

  • New Coach Mode available where you take control of play calling and let your team do the rest. The setting is located in the Gameplay section and can be switched on in the Team Select screen or Settings menu.
