Varsity High School Football Video Game

Varsity football video game will release on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. 

The team purchased the Xsens MVN Link option capture suit in 2022 to capture their own football animations. With it, they planned on providing a cutting-edge physics-based animation system.

All schools are fictional but every state and any town with over 1,000 population will be there for your choosing. Players can start a new Dynasty, create their coach, and navigate to a map of the US to view open jobs. 

After gauging the team information, you are all set to accept the job and begin off-season in the winter. 

Like the NCCA series, the game starts by selecting your coach followed by your school/team for your first job. You start in the offseason and go through managing the team. Weight training, spring training, and spring games must be defined among others.

A big difference from NCAA games is handling off-field situations. Not only will you have to deal with parents and their hopes that their son have more playing time but you will equally need to manage boosters wanting to give your program money with expectations attached.

The decision you make off the field with how to manage things will have a direct impact on the team, players, school budgets, job security, booster support, community turn out and games result.

When starting a dynasty for a particular state, you have the control to decide how many teams make it to the playoffs.

Helmets are customizable and include options for matte, metallic, colors, and logo placements. Facemask, chinstrap, and visor colors can also be adjusted to your liking.

The team behind the varsity FB game has been designing the UI with colorblindness in mind to provide maximum accessibility.

High School football video game has customizable stadiums, fields, helmets, jerseys, and logos. It was inspired by Texas football games.

Each player will have body morphing customization to give a representation of high school athletes who range from undersized to oversized.

There will be a creation of districts, groups, and conferences based on location and surrounding areas. This will be used to generate statewide conferences and playoffs. For small and medium-sized states, the divisional state league structure will be 1A-5A and for larger states like Texas, it will be full 6A.

Things Players Can Do In The New Video Game

1. Inform coaches of athletes’ plans outside the football team. The plan can include whether or not they want to play another sport a school, job application, or their availability for training programs.
2. Set goals for the annual budget usage and make decisions to invest in off-season upgrades. The upgrade can be new equipment, bleacher, field, or scoreboard among other things.
3. Chose between base jerseys, a jersey with a white t-shirt underneath, and a jersey with a QB protector underneath.
4. Set positional depth charts using any available players.
5. Selection of quality field items to decrease the likelihood of a poorly kept field, impact audience and revenue generated from games
6. Change the player’s height, weight, and muscle tone.
7. Load the team into practice/scrimmage during the offseason to help get a feel for each player’s abilities.
8. Change the uniform to your preference for strip styles, shoulder layouts, and stitching styles.

EA Sports high school football video game can be made by reusing features from NCAA 14 Dynasty mode.

Features that it can reuse to quickly bring a new high school football video game are:

• UI/UX Framework
• Gameplay engine
• Dynasty mode
• Career mode
• Online team creation and sharing
• Custom playbooks
• Roster editing
• Generate names feature
• Custom conferences

If EA Sports chooses to do so, it can get the game out in less than three years, the average time it takes to create a video game. It certainly has the database and the means to do so.

The game should focus on customization as fans will be hooked if they could create the team they desire. The only reason NCAA 14 has not died not in the past years is the team-building feature.

A high school football video game was only a dream for many but it may soon be a reality with Varsity pushing to release the game within the next year after receiving updates from users at the end of 2023.
