A few years ago Despelote was announced, a narrative football adventure that caught the attention of many gamers. Now, two years after its announcement, Despelote returns with a publisher, platforms, and a release date. And it is that Publisher Panic has confirmed that it will be in charge of publishing the title both on PC, and on Series X/S and PS5 on a date to be specified in 2024.

. This publisher has already published well-known indie titles before, such as Firewatch or Untitled Goose Game, which gives us some confidence in this interesting title.

The title will put us in control of an eight-year-old boy, a representation of the childhood of one of the creators of the game, Julián Cordero. Despelote will take place in the city of Quito, Ecuador in 2001, the year Ecuador could qualify for the World Cup

. All of this will be embodied with a somewhat whimsical air. All of this will be depicted with a very particular and striking art style, as can be seen in the trailer behind the lines.

In Despelote we will control our character with a first person view, being able to do a multitude of actions with the ball, such as shooting, passing the ball or dribbling our opponents. The city will be full of activities and missions to complete, as well as a multitude of characters to talk to

. It is Conversations can be enjoyed in full Spanish, as it has been confirmed that the game will arrive dubbed in Spanish.
