New Star Soccer Manager is a total football management simulation offering fans a unique mix of management and arcade action. Fans can not only look forward to the day-to-day backroom management duties at New Star FC, like buying and selling players, making deals with sponsors, meeting with the board, upgrading the club infrastructure and managing finances, but also trying to keep their players happy as well as taking full control of the team on the pitch! Unique arcade controls allow gamers to string together passing moves, make runs, take shots, penalties, free-kicks, make tackles and much, much more!

“In New Star Soccer Manager we wanted to give you ultimate control over how your team plays” says Simon Read, Creator of  New Star Games “...matches are played out in a similar way to New Star Soccer in that you only play out the highlights, but when you get hands on, you can pass, head, shoot, dribble and tell players where to make their runs”

Success in the game isn’t just dependent on making the right decisions off the pitch but equally important, the player must also grapple with team tactics and formation, time their players’ runs perfectly, judge when and how to play that defence-splitting pass and where and when to shoot.

New Star Soccer Manager follows the hugely successful, critically-acclaimed New Star Soccer mobile game, which was downloaded more than 30 million times worldwide and was awarded a prestigious BAFTA for best mobile sports game.

UK – 26^th January 2017. New Star Games, the developer behind the hit mobile football game, New Star Soccer has announced the signing of football media brand, Goal, as the official in-game sponsor.

  Goal, the world’s largest online football brand, will appear in New Star Soccer as the in-game match sponsor, with the brand appearing on advertising hoardings around the pitch, on pre-match introduction screens and as the way players get the latest news on their player’s progress, with New Star News appearing to come from the Goal website.

  New Star Soccer was released back in March 2012, before going on to win a BAFTA in 2013 and be downloaded more than 25 million times by football fans all over the world. More recently, New Star Soccer was updated with a well-received redesign and the option to watch replays of goals.

To extend that reach to a game as popular as New Star Soccer makes perfect sense and allows us to raise brand awareness with young football fans, exposing Goal to millions of new and current users.”

We are delighted to announce the launch of New Star Soccer G-Story: A New Star Soccer Interactive Game Story.

We have joined forces with book publisher Hachette UK, Insight Studios and award winning children's authors The2Steves to make this exciting interactive game story.

This format mixes traditional (written) story narrative with real gameplay challenges, where you play out chances just like in New Star Soccer. The written story takes different narrative paths, depending on how you perform in each game segment. As a result, there are multiple plot threads and multiple endings.

These numerous plot threads and endings mean that New Star Soccer G-Story features some 180,000 words of text, across 18 chapters. This is interspersed with 240 segments of gameplay, including shooting, dribbling, passing, tackling, penalties and more, which each change the whole course of the story.

The story is one that sums up what playing New Star Soccer is all about. It takes the reader from playing a game of football in the park, being spotted by a talent scout, to signing for a leading Club and playing in a Cup Final – or not, depending on the decisions made by the reader and their success during the gameplay challenges.

New Star Soccer G-Story is priced at just £4.99 but will be reduced to £2.99 for the launch period. It is available to download via the App Store and Google Play. Links can be found in the releases section of the website.
