Now series creator, Michael Mendheim, has successfully Kickstarted a spiritual successor to the original title (called Mutant Football League) with Digital Dreams Entertainment for release on PC in October, with PS4 and Xbox One versions to follow in spring 2018. We recently got hands-on time with a pre-alpha build of the title, and the game's promise already shines through. Mutant Football League plays like an old-school Blitz title, but throws in enough extra elements to think about from play-to-play and even moment-to-moment. From a giant chainsaw roving across the fifty-yard line to electrically charged defensive players who cause fumbles on contact, Mutant Football League is a different kind of pigskin, but more importantly, it's one that layers its additions on top of a traditional gameplay foundation. Calling audibles, making reads as a QB, and calling the right plays sit comfortably alongside giant orcs that can kill your players and avoiding mines on the field and blood moats along the sideline. Player health regeneration is optional, but playing with permadeath for your roster of 50 players makes things more interesting, particularly when you can get in some post-play cheap shots.
Juggling which of your players are healthy and filling in spots for deceased players is morbid fun. On one play – after being hit by a Bombs Away Dirty Trick (which turns the ball into an explosive) – both my starting corners died, leaving me with a depleted secondary to say the least. Dirty Tricks vary from team to team and refresh at the half. Run down the field slashing at opponents with a chainsaw on your arm (Chainsaw Massacre), bribe (or alternately kill) the ref, or make your defensive player a fumble-causing giant (Ginormous), and more. It'll be interesting to see how all these offensive and defensive Dirty Tricks balance out, and which ones may be too strong or ineffective.Īlso worth considering are players' species, which is another kind of chess match. Mutant demons may have wings and a good vertical jump, but this is balanced out by their poor health regen. Aliens have rolling turbo speed, but lack hit power.
On the other end of the spectrum, Orcs have high hit power, but lack intelligence. How you compose your lineup in light of who is healthy and who isn't can mean mismatches on any given play.
