Leave it to Sony Online Entertainment and its highly successful massively multiplayer online game Free Realms to transform common, real-world stuff into virtual items and events. Take, for example, the recent launch of SOE’s newest update for the game, Goal Time.
Free Realms‘ Goal Time introduces a new job, the Soccer Star, into the growing roster of classes you can choose for your toon or avatar. And what’s a Soccer Star without a soccer field and hundreds of adoring fans? Goal Time also comes with an all-new 3D soccer minigame for two three-man teams.
Players can try out the new Soccer Star job up to Level 5. Beyond that level, however, you need to be a member. Don’t fret as there is more in store for all Free Realms players, such as 20 new quests.
Here’s a hilarious video of how the Free Realms development team researched the different aspects of soccer to prepare for Goal Time:
For those who haven’t joined the fun or played Free Realms in a long time like me, here’s what you can expect from the new update:
- 20 brand new quests
- Play 3 on 3 with friends or in one of 15 scenarios against Free Realms‘ finest AI teams
- 6 full sets of soccer clothes and gear with various tints
- 3 themed background fields to play on
- Charge up skills with various accessories and shards
- Grab boosts on the field to increase speed and toughness
- Soccer Trainer is located south of Snowhill
- Play the Soccer Tutorial; it’s always available
So what are you waiting for? Grab your cleats and jerseys and join the fun in Free Realms’s Goal Time.
