Argentine football legends including Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona return to the pitch in a frantic new arcade experience. Beat The Champions,
developed under an official license from the Argentine Football
Association (AFA), launches today on Steam, promising high-speed
matches, special abilities, and a ruleset that eliminates fouls outside
the penalty area.

Matches are decided by split-second decisions, precise movements, and perfectly timed special abilities.
