Rack 'em up and take a shot at the world’s most immersive and detailed pool game featuring photo-realistic graphics and true-to-life game physics that are right on cue.

Prepare yourselves for the return of the masters of the baize as the creators of the critically acclaimed Hustle Kings and Pure Pool return with This Is Pool. Developed using all the power of VooFoo Studios’ updated and completely revamped world-class game and physics engine, This Is Pool will set new benchmarks for graphical fidelity and hyper-realistic gameplay in a breathtaking simulation that is set to redefine how good a cue sports game can look and play.

This Is Pool will expand and improve on previous games to deliver the most robust, expansive and feature-rich cue sports game to date that will include every major rule-set played worldwide, practice mode, mini-games, career mode, arcade trick shots and ‘scenario’ challenges, rule-set customisation, local and online multiplayer and more, along with the option to play with a top-down camera view.

This Is Pool developer VooFoo Studios announced that it will be an official tour partner to The WPBSA World Seniors Snooker Tour for 2018/19.

The partnership will see VooFoo Studios and the World Seniors Tour team-up across all qualifying and ranking events on the tour, where This Is Pool will benefit from over 6-months of promotional activity throughout the duration of the 2018/19 World Seniors Snooker Tour calendar.

On the partnership, Jason Francis, Chairman of World Seniors Snooker said “As someone who grew up playing Jimmy White’s snooker on the Atari, I’m really excited to welcome VooFoo Studios as tour partner. This is Pool is an incredibly realistic video game that can even improve your real-life game, fans of the World Seniors Tour will be amazed by just how close to the real world sport it is. You really can play like ‘Whirlwind’ White or ‘Hurricane’ Higgins, and if you’re good enough, you may just prove to be the next Stephen Hendry!”

Commenting on the announcement, VooFoo Studios’ Marketing and PR Manager, Sean Walsh said “We’re really proud to be partnering with the World Seniors Tour and some of the most iconic and legendary names in the history of World Snooker. This is a fantastic partnership that aligns us with a dedicated and highly enthusiastic cue sports fan base. We’re looking forward to showcasing This Is Pool’s stunning visuals and hyper-authentic gameplay over the course of the next 6-months on the World Seniors Tour calendar”.

This Is Pool will be coming to PS4 , Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam) in early 2019.
