Publisher and developer Modus announces Maximum Football with a gameplay trailer. The upcoming college football sim is in development using Unreal Engine 5 and will be free to play on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox platforms.

The new Maximum Football launches in Steam early access this spring, with the full release coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Fans can also check out the new trailer for a first look at gameplay and a roundup of Maximum Football’s key features. These include physics-based tackles for more realistic gameplay, extensive player and team customization, and online cross-platform multiplayer. The new game also sees the return of Maximum Football’s Dynasty Mode, a dynamic career mode including bowls, player recruitment, transfers, suspensions, and more.

Modus provides some additional information on Maximum Football’s website, promising that the college football sim will offer “an ultrarealistic experience” that fans can experience for free. The game will use a live service model, which the studio says will allow it to continually improve and offer players a fresh experience. Modus also promises that the new game will not contain loot boxes and that Maximum Football provides an enjoyable experience even for players who choose not to spend money on the live-service content.

Aww I got excited until I seen the dude wearing a helmet and HOLDING A FUCKING EGG.

This isn't football! Why is the guy wearing gloves? Because he has to carry and catch an egg?

American "Football" is basically Rugby except they are too scared to get hurt and get all padded up and wear helmets.

Why is this called football? And why is soccer called football???

Your foot should go inside the ball if you want to call it football.

Don't you find weird that running around with an egg shaped ball on your hands is called football? (Foot + Ball).
Compared to TRUE football (some weirdos call it "soccer") the players only occasionally kick the ball.

Nobody corrects people calling rugby, aussie rules, gaelic, or whatever dominant code "football" though. Its a weird euro obsession same as asking "why is it called the world series". The real question I wanna know how Brits coined "soccer" from "association football".

Little brother syndrome. The NFL is the most profitable sport in the world and that rubs the Euros the wrong way.

Cant make threads like this during peak Euro time. Should have waited 8 more hours until the Dive Grassers went to bed.

That being said, the actual graphics look great, but the animations look pretty bad here. There was a reason loads of sports games for years worked on high end mo cap or animation cycles. Will try it out for the F2P though.

At first I thought it was about football, then that it was Power Rangers or Halo spin off - and now; now I know nothing!

I played a little rugby in college, this is an uninformed take. They use similar balls and at times you can hold the ball while running, but that's where the similarities end.

Playing both sports at an amateur level, I can say rugby generally was safer. The lack of protection creates a situation where not only is the ball holder not protected, but also the tackler. Tackles are generally less violent and more measured in rugby due to the tackler not wanting to kill themselves. In American football, defenders act like heat seeking missles that will destroy a ball carrier.

Americans. They speak american not english, apparently.

They were founded by the British (English) and got so pissed off they tried to steal our language and make it their own but us Brits will always remind them they are wrong.

I was very confused when I saw "college football" since football stars don't go to university, but then I saw the helmets and realized you were posting about American Concussion Hand Egg. 😛
