The Kick Off franchise is back and as the name suggests creator Dino Dini is on board. Dino Dini’s Kick Off Revival is in development for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita and is set to release next year.
The first Kick Off game commenced development in 1988 for the Amiga and ST home computers and the last Kick Off game to-date was released in 2002.
Dino Dini told the PlayStation Blog the following:
"So, what can you expect from the new Kick Off? The important things will not change. The ball is not stuck to your feet; you can shoot the way you want; aiming and swerving the ball will be 100% under your control.
The game is going to be in 3D, but only because it is actually easier to make games like that these days. I may offer different camera views, but the default views will be the classic top down approach of Kick Off 2 and GOAL!, perhaps with small adjustments.
The spirit will be that of the old games, but designed with the modern hardware in mind. This is particularly true of the controllers. 25 years ago home computers used an eight-direction joystick with one button. These were digital, not analog. You could only aim in eight directions. The new game will make full use of the analog controls, and the gameplay is tuned to work with these.
The effect is that the feel and the spirit of the original game is retained, but the possibilities for precision and skill are vastly improved."
