What is UFL?

UFL is a brand new free to play soccer title developed by Strikerz Inc. Built on Unreal Engine 5, UFL promises to deliver exceptional gameplay that rewards gaming ability and is specifically designed to be a fair-to-play experience, emphasizing a skill-first approach.

“We’re delighted to announce that gamers worldwide will be able to experience UFL first-hand in June. This event marks a significant milestone in our journey, allowing us to gather invaluable feedback from our community and refine the game as we aim to deliver an unparalleled gaming experience when we launch later this year.”

What Game Modes are Available in UFL?

During the Open Beta weekend players will have the opportunity to engage in the main online mode, where they can compete with fellow gamers worldwide. In this mode, players will be tasked with creating their own football clubs using a roster of real players licensed by FIFPro. As players win more online matches, they will earn valuable in-game resources, which can be utilized to improve and customize their clubs.
