A Peterborough company’s video football game has been officially released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One gaming platforms.
Local developer Canuck Play’s Maximum Football 2018 game has been officially certified for the Sony and Microsoft consoles. The game aims to celebrate Canadian culture by featuring three downs for the game.
“This an amazing milestone for us,” stated company president David Winter. “We have been working for months both day and night to make this reality for our player base. A lot of little pieces go into being passed for certification.”
Maximum Football 2018 features multiple game options between Canadian, American and college football with modes such as full season, practice, replays with camera control and player body styles and even weather which can impact gameplay.
The game is a continuation to last July’s launch of Canadian Football 2017 for Xbox One and PC desktop which received PC distribution through Steam.
