What's Changed - Early Access 1.1 Update
First up is a quick QOL update focused on matchmaking.
Big Features!
- We’ve heard your feedback and we’re retiring 3 v 3 for the moment while we rebuild the mode. As such, you’re now able to only get up to 2 v 2.
- Server browser is now sorted by ping. This will allow you to better find a game in your region with the lowest ping time.
Bug Fixes
- Added the ability to cancel matchmaking search in server browser, hitting the ESC key will now cancel searching.
- Goal scored messages sometimes not being shown in game.

🚨Content Roadmap - Developer Update 🚨
Hey Squad,
Exciting news today as we have just released our Axiom Soccer Content Roadmap!
https://trello.com/b/c2MybBG6/public-axiom-soccer-roadmap
This is the first look at the awesome content and changes we plan to add to Axiom Soccer over the next few months and beyond!
We really wanted to focus on addressing the feedback and suggestions, provided by you the community to our dev team, from your experience playing the game.
As we are an Early Access title, features and timelines are subject to change but we wanted our community to see what we are working on and for you to vote on your favourite topics!
We've postponed the Dev Diary until next week where myself and Jen will give a breakdown on some of the topics and questions recently asked on our Dev Stream (twitch.tv/earthboundgames). As we wanted to have the roadmap ready and visible beforehand.
We also have a request for your help!
If you have been enjoying the game and see the potential in what it can become please leave a Steam review! We super appreciate it as it is the best way to currently support the game!
The positive reviews we have received so far have been so overwhelming to myself and the team and help support getting Axiom Soccer in front of a larger audience (so there are even more people to challenge in comp ;) )
Thank you all so much for your support of Axiom Soccer!
TL:WR - Dev Roadmap, Dev diary next week, please review us on Steam

🎉Axiom Soccer launches onto Early Access for FREE!!
Axiom Soccer launches onto Early Access for FREE!!
That's right - we want everyone to experience AXIOM SOCCER for themselves so they can find out why Eurogamer selected it as one of their "Best Games Of EGX Rezzed 2019" last weekend.
For those of you who already have the game installed you’ll have to download a small update before hopping into a match. New players will be able to search for us in the Steam Store and smash the Install button - so be sure to invite your friends to join you for a game! (Did we mention it's completely FREE already?)
We've had a blast developing Axiom Soccer and much of that is because of the amazing community that's formed around the game since we first started our closed beta back in August last year. With the move into Early Access we'll be opening the doors wide and inviting the world in, and we know the game wouldn't have been nearly as good as it now is if we hadn't received such supportive feedback from our closed-beta players. So, from the whole team at Earthbound Games we’d like to say a MASSIVE thank you for all of the support and suggestions we’ve received throughout these early stages of development. We’ve been overwhelmed with the community we’ve built and will be using your amazing feedback to shape and develop the future of Axiom Soccer.
Big Features!
🎉Early Access Launch!🎉
Gameplay
- Added an AFK kick timer to online matches, meaning players can no longer idle in matches (This is currently set to 30 seconds for warning, followed by a second 30 before kick).
- Blast Doors raise much sooner after penalty counter reaches 0 seconds.
- Capped Account Progression to Level 20, further progression will be added in future updates.
Networking
- Deactivated logging on server. This should improve gameplay performance.
UI
- Added a Discord button to the main menu! Join the Squad!
- Added a live counter to show how many servers we have available and how many players are in the Competitive game mode.
- Added a border between screens in Split Screen mode.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where players would spawn off center in matches where players had left the match earlier.
- Fixed an issue where goals and saves wouldn’t show in Axiom Academy.
- Fixed an issue where ball highlighting could turn on by accident.
- Fixed an issue where Shotgun blast wasn’t showing in local matches.
- Fixed an issue where if you bumped into another vehicle while ascending or descending that action would be blocked until you released the key and pressed it again. Should be much smoother now.
Axiom Soccer Launches Tomorrow!
