With football taking center stage at this time of year, Belgian developer Oddshot Games has confirmed that its multiplayer football simulation, Strikers Club, will participate in Steam Next Fest and Football Fiesta. The demo is now available to download on Steam and will remain accessible until June 25, inviting players to step onto the pitch, create their own stories, and experience matches driven by skill, teamwork, and dynamic physics.
This new public testing phase marks another important step in the project's evolution, which has been continuously refined through community feedback. During the festival, players will be able to experiment with different playstyles, perform skill moves to outmaneuver opponents, experience a foul system featuring yellow and red cards, take free kicks, join quickplay matches in a 5v5 format, and participate in custom games supporting up to 22 players on the field.
Visitors to the event will also be able to unlock an exclusive Steam Next Fest jersey and earn free cosmetic items throughout the demo period. At the same time, the Oddshot Games team will remain active within its official community, organizing matches, hosting question and answer sessions, and gathering feedback that will help shape future versions of the game.
Built around physics based gameplay and individual player skill, the simulation emphasizes precision and mastery of its controls. Every action requires careful attention to positioning, movement speed, and ball control, encouraging dribbling, coordinated passing, and team oriented play rather than simple button pressing.
The shooting system uses the camera to determine shot direction, while chaining together skill moves allows players to evade defenders with style and creativity. Those who prefer a defensive role can step into a dedicated goalkeeper mode, complete with unique mechanics designed to keep the goal secure and influence the outcome of matches.
The experience aims to recreate the key elements of a real football match, including throw ins, corner kicks, penalties, offsides, and fouls. Its competitive multiplayer component pits real players against one another, making success dependent on both individual ability and effective teamwork throughout online matches.
Beyond traditional competition, Strikers Club features extensive customization options for jerseys, accessories, and equipment, alongside a community hub designed for practice sessions, minigames, and social interaction. With multiple match formats and a strong focus on community involvement, the title arrives at Steam Next Fest looking to expand its player base and further refine its vision ahead of future development milestones.
