'Mutant Football League' (ALL) Gets PS4, Xbox One Date - Screens

by Rainier on Jan. 5, 2018 @ 7:40 a.m. PST

Mutant Football League pays homage to the classic franchise by combining football with strategy, customizable creatures, bone-crunching hits, over the top gore, and a graveyard full of tongue-through-cheek humor.

The original Mutant League Football was released by Electronic Arts in 1993 for the Sega Genesis.  It's blend of monsters, mayhem, and good ol' American team sports turned the game into a cult classic and a #1 seller. The touchdown success of the original game spawned a spin-off (Mutant League Hockey: Sega Genesis, 1994), as well as a toy line, an animated cartoon series, trading cards, and more!

Mutant Football League is the bloody-fun, next-gen, successor to arcade-style American football games, taking inspiration from over-the-top sports games such as NFL Blitz and the Sega Genesis classic, Mutant League Football.  Digital Dreams' MFL game delivers deep strategic 7-on-7 gameplay, with bone-crunching, tooth-shattering, head splitting hits, and a roster of comical ghouls delivering tongue-through-cheek humor.  Oh, and blood.  Lots of blood.

Mutant Football League game is a 7-on-7, arcade-style, fully 3D, sports video game where a variety of gruesome creatures take to the gridiron to battle it out in the most violent game ever played!  Loaded with attitude and over-the-top comic violence, this hilarious and brutal parody of professional American football provides addictive mayhem and will introduce gamers to some of the wildest, most bloodthirsty superstar players to ever strap on shoulder spikes.


Digital Dreams Entertainment has finally relented and will release Mutant Football League for PS4 and Xbox One owners on January 19th, 2018.

The bloody-fun, next-gen spiritual successor to the 1993 Sega Genesis classic Mutant League Football will invade the Xbox Live and PlayStation Network, and spark new debates about soft balls, shotgun hits, and proper decapitation protocol.

Mutant Football League features legendary voice-over actor Tim Kitzrow; best known for his work in one of the great classic sports games of all time, NBA Jam, with such memorable sound bites as "He's on fire!" and "Boomshakalaka!" A few MFL refs were bribed to guarantee the commentary of Mutant Football League on PS4 and Xbox One remained as foul-mouthed as the original smash hit PC version. It's like Conker's Bad Fur Day for sports fans!  However, don't worry... there is an option to turn off the expletives in case small children or Republican senators are in the room.

Mutant Football League features monsters and mutants battling it out in the most dangerous game in the galaxy. And now, two decades later, with even more bone-shattering hits, over-the-top gore, and one hell of a wicked tongue-through-cheek sense of humor, the Mutants are making their triumphant return to the field via Kickstarter, where the fans can help craft the game that they've been waiting for and get some sweet Mutant backer rewards in the process!
