What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Project Legend is built around a deep, long-term football career simulation, and player feedback is especially valuable for refining the balance, realism and variety of that experience. Early Access allows us to develop the game alongside the community while continuing to improve career progression, transfers, contracts, events, competitions and the overall simulation.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect Project Legend to remain in Early Access for approximately 6–12 months. This may change depending on player feedback and the scope of improvements made during development.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to expand and refine the career simulation throughout Early Access, with a focus on greater career variety, deeper player and club interactions, additional events and decisions, improved transfer and contract systems, expanded statistics and career history, further simulation balancing, additional content, and continued UI and quality-of-life improvements.

We also plan to use community feedback to identify areas where the career experience can become deeper, more realistic and more rewarding over long-term saves.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Project Legend is already a playable single-player football career simulation with the core career loop in place. Players can develop their footballer, progress through seasons, compete for playing time, experience transfers and contracts, make career decisions, represent their country, and track their career through statistics, competitions and milestones.

The Early Access version is focused on a complete playable career experience while we continue to improve balancing, long-term simulation quality, performance, UI polish, event variety and overall career depth.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to offer Project Legend at a lower price during Early Access and may increase the price when the game leaves Early Access as the scope, content and overall level of polish expand.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Community feedback will play an important role in the development of Project Legend. We plan to actively follow feedback through the Steam Community and use it to help identify balancing issues, improve career realism, refine existing systems and prioritize quality-of-life improvements.

We are especially interested in feedback from long-term careers, where players can help us identify unrealistic progression, transfers, contracts, playing-time decisions, competition behavior and other situations that may only become visible after many simulated seasons.

We also plan to share development updates and communicate major changes as Project Legend evolves throughout Early Access.”

About This Game

Project Legend is a career game about a single footballer. You do not run a club or pick the line-up. You play one player, from the youth team to the end of his career, and every season you make his decisions.

One footballer's career


Your coach tells you where you stand and gives you tasks for the week. His trust decides whether you start. Your agent, your family, your club and the wider football world write to your inbox. Other players' ratings are shown as a range that narrows the better you know them.

Matchday


Before kick-off you choose a training camp, study the opponent and learn your part in the match plan. In the dressing room the coach talks to you directly, and he remembers your answer. The match then plays out minute by minute in the live text and on the 2D radar, in the colours of its competition.

Key moments


When it matters, the live match stops and shows you a situation from your position with two or three options. Your choice and how it turns out count towards your rating. In an attacking move of your team, the moment decides who scores or assists. Goalkeepers and defenders get their own moments.

Contracts and transfers


At the end of each season your agent compares the offers line by line: playing time, competition for your place, wage and role. You negotiate over several rounds: salary, bonuses, release clause, a wage step after 15 appearances. Once a club has made its final offer, it repeats it; push further and the move can fall through. Loans, pre-contracts and free transfers are part of it.

The football world


686 clubs in 30 football nations and around 21,000 players who age, change clubs, break through and retire. League, cup, European competitions and national team share one calendar. Tables mark European places, promotion, play-offs and relegation. A weekly paper and the summer list of all transfers show how the world moves around you.

Data


A performance radar with eight metrics, a form curve over 20 appearances, heatmaps and shot maps. Compare up to three players side by side. Your development profile shows why you grow: minutes, form, league level and training. From your early thirties, pace and stamina decline first; players who keep playing well last longer.

Steam and friends duel


When you launch through Steam, 60 achievements follow the milestones of your career. Leaderboards are opt-in for each career. In a friends duel, two players start from the same seed and compare their careers.

  • Simulation mode lets the world play 1, 3, 5, 10 or 20 seasons without your player.
  • All clubs, players, coaches and brands are fictional. No licences are used.
  • Nine languages: English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português (Brasil), Bahasa Indonesia, 日本語, 简体中文.
