I grew up in a town where some people hated the colour green, because they supported Rangers FC and green was associated with their rivals, Celtic FC. They would smash green traffic lights, green street cabinets, green shop signs…

Banned or not, the trailer above shows the protagonist playing in what look like football matches, with tackles and shots and everything. It also shows wave defense battles fought with a football, aiming mini-games, chatting with ghosts, turn-based combat, and a lot else.
