There was a lot of big talk in September about the Apple TV being the Silicon Valley’s flag plant moment in the living room gaming scene. But do you know what any device trying to dominate my coffee table space requires other than playing games well? Exclusives.
Well, looks like we have at least one we can count on. Rantmedia Games, the developers behind Vectrex Regeneration, a collection of previously released titles for the vector-based system Vectrex, is releasing a soccer game designed exclusively for the Apple TV platform.
TV Sports Soccer is a 3D action soccer game whose art style is very much inspired by Crossy Road‘s 8-bit block polygon aesthetic. The game will feature multiple team colors to select, different field conditions, and weather effects — as well as the classic pass, shoot, and score gameplay that I expect from arcade-style soccer titles.
Rantmedia Games is claiming a release date of Fall 2015, which is technically now. So keep an eye on the App Store.
