2, 4, 26, 48… I’ve never worked out if the quarterback is calling specific players or reciting his maths homework, but with Wild Card football it’s probably a summoning of an alien UFO, or the chemical ingredients for the oil you’ll be slipping on while pushing for that touchdown.

So if you fancy pinball bumpers and tornados with your 4th downs and punts, you might be pleased to know Wild Card Football is available now from only £34.99

Featuring pick-up-and-play, 7-on-7 action this arcade-sports title will have players creating their ultimate football squad, and using power-ups and rule breaking Wild Cards to lead their team to victory.

Saber Interactive, in partnership with Colin Kaepernick, the NFL Players Association, and OneTeam Partners, has released Wild Card Football, the newest installment in the bestselling Playgrounds arcade-sports franchise. Create your ultimate dream squad with an authentic roster of hundreds of pro football superstars, including Colin Kaepernick, Jalen Hurts, Patrick Mahomes, Justin Jefferson, T.J. Watt, Joey Bosa, Travis Kelce, Ja’Marr Chase, Aaron Donald and more. Take the field for extreme, pick-up-and-play, 7-on-7 action featuring over-the-top power-ups and rule-breaking abilities that can change the course of the game in an instant.

Kaepernick, whose professional football experience has been instrumental in shaping the game’s strategic as well as creative elements, expresses his excitement about this groundbreaking venture.

“You don’t want to miss out on Wild Card Football! We set out to create a game that took football to another level,” said Colin Kaepernick, who consulted on the title and appears both in-game as a playable character and on its cover art. “Players get to experience a merging of traditional football and out of this world power-ups. The unexpected twists, created by the power-ups, lead to new moves and new strategies. Wild Card Football is unlike anything I have ever seen or played before.”
