We've got a new American Football game coming out in August, and it looks like a great one! Legend Bowl has officially set a release date of August 9th, 2023, and it'll be available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S.
It's described as featuring a "hybrid of arcade-style football and simulation aspects on and off the field" complete with an Exhibition Mode, Tournament Mode, Franchise Mode, Training Camp Mode, and lots of customisation options.
There's also a big emphasis being put into the "attention to detail" in Legend Bowl, which includes realistic weather with a time cycle lighting system, on-field stat overlays and much more. The game apparently took a "monumental amount of work" to bring to console, totalling over 7 million lines of code in the end.
We'll throw some more details about Legend Bowl down below, along with screenshots.
