HEY THERE!
We’re New Star Games, a small but experienced development team with a track record of high-quality titles across many platforms over many years. We’ve had a string of successes on mobile and Switch with the New Star and Retro games, and the sensational Retro Bowl being the #1 app on the US App Store.
Our team boasts the super-talented Simon Read, the man behind the original New Star Soccer, and a collection of industry veterans who’ve worked at major studios on titles such as the Worms series (Team17), Lemmings (Team17), Call of Duty: Strike Team (Activision), Red Dead Redemption (Rockstar), and the Grand Theft Auto series (Rockstar).
We mostly develop retro sports-RPG games in which fun, simplicity, and surprising depth is the focus.

WEEK 11 UPDATE
WEEK 11 UPDATE
19 November 2025: The team making news at the top of the NFL Retro Bowl '26 Championship leaderboard this week is the 49ers. Having tightened their grip on 1st place last week, the Colts had a bye week this time round which opened the door for the eager 49ers to take their place at the top. But it's not all bad for the Colts... even though they lost the top spot, they're still 2nd, ahead of the Eagles in 3rd, and well positioned to return to the summit when the 49ers don't have a game in week 14.
In other news, the Packers fans posted an enormous score to move into 4th, while the biggest climbers this week were the Vikings who broke into the top 10. Congratulations to those fans who posted scores for those teams. Of course, there's still plenty of time to go, and you the players can change everything in the weeks ahead, so show your support for your team & move them up the leaderboard.
This week's highest individual score, a massive 14,982, was posted on the Packers leaderboard as they overcame the Giants in their match-up this week, so congratulations to you... You are the week 11 MVP!
