When the ball isn’t moving the game pauses, allowing you more time to decide on your next pass, or set up a forward run on to a through ball. The controls are very simplistic you won’t find any tricks here, just dribble, tackle, pass, and shoot. Matches are similar, but instead of controlling just your own player you could take control of any player on the team for those attacking moments. This game takes the New Star Soccer formula and extends it to a management sim. It was a super simple and super fun version of FIFA’s career mode. Your actions on the pitch would then impact your career off the pitch. The match would play out via text, and you would be parachuted in for free kicks or scoring opportunities. It is a sequel of sorts to the wildly popular and BAFTA winning New Star Soccer – a game that had you take control of a football player for key moments in a match. New Star Manager certainly comes with a pedigree that many mobile titles don’t have. At a time when mobile gaming is a bit of a taboo word, and football games are dominated by FIFA and Football Manager, it will be interesting to see whether New Star Manager can make an impact on all those platforms. New Star Manager first released on mobile in 2018, then Steam, Switch, and now PS4. This started with Angry Birds and has become more and more common, with varying degrees of success.

It seems to be the trend recently to port free-to-play mobile games to home consoles.
