Hi everyone!
We have just deployed a new update (v1.7.6) addressing several technical bugs, menu issues, and gameplay details recently reported by our awesome community.
Here is the complete list of changes:
🛠️ Bug Fixes & UI Polish
Stats Reset between Modes: Fixed a critical bug where match statistics (shots, yellow/red cards) from a Quick Match were carrying over into your newly started World Cup tournament. Stats will now properly reset when switching game modes.
Start Screen Gamepad Support: Fixed the "Press Any Key" screen! You no longer need to reach for your keyboard to start the game; it will now properly detect your controller (Xbox, PlayStation, etc.) to jump straight into the action.
Menu Navigation & Mouse Lock: Fixed an issue in the World Cup menus where the mouse cursor would hover and interfere with button highlights while navigating with a gamepad.
Steam Cloud Support: Steam Cloud is now fully active! Your game progress, custom teams, and settings will now automatically sync between any PC and Steam Deck.
⚽ Gameplay & AI Tweaks
Goalkeeper AI Improvements: Overhauled goalkeeper behavior with general intelligence upgrades to make them more active and reliable during intense match situations.
Thank you so much for your support, reviews, and detailed feedback! We are constantly working to improve Super Arcade Soccer 2026, so please keep sharing your thoughts in the forums.
See you on the pitch! ⚽🔥
