• Illustration — Gameplay screenshot Soccer Brawl is a futuristic soccer game that uses either bionic people or cyborgs for the players. It is a two-player game where you pick a home land from one of eight countries. After selecting one of two stadiums, SNK Stadium in Osaka or Super Dome in San Francisco, the 5-on-5 soccer match begins with a goalie for each team. You can hold either A for a power shot while on offense, or A for a super shot to disable opponents while on defense. You can perform tackle and slide. Captain wears a kerchief, can't shoot and can make super shot. Power shots rebound from walls except walls behind the goalie.

There are no fouls. Throw-in is made in case of the ball landing outside of field line. Match time is 2 min 30 sec.

There are 8 teams, which differ by color, super shots and, possibly, some parameters. • United States (purple and white) • Germany (yellow and black) • England (yellow and purple) • Spain (pink and yellow-green) • Brazil (yellow-green and yellow) • Italy (pink and blue) • South Korea (blue and yellow-green) • Japan (red and white)

USA and England: super shot flies on a "figure eight" trajectory. Italy and Germany: super shot flies on zig-zag. Spain and Brazil: super shot is energy sphere surrounded by eight small balls. Korea and Japan: super shot flies in a circle behind captain and flies straight.
