PC Fútbol 8: From Promising Revival to Disappointment and Abandonment

The circumstances regarding PC Fútbol 8 have shifted in an unsatisfactory direction, resulting in widespread disappointment. Although there were assurances during its recent re-release, the game has fallen short of the benchmarks set by its creators, causing many players to perceive it as a misleading endeavor. The developers had sought a 48-hour extension just last Monday to address some last-minute issues, yet the game did not make its scheduled appearance yesterday at 19:30 CEST, nor has there been any communication from the studio Una Partida Más for those who pre-ordered.

An investigation into the matter reveals that SteamDB indicates no updates or bug fixes have been implemented on the game’s page or code since April 12th, four months ago. Additionally, the game’s X account, the primary channel for communicating with the creators, has been silent since July 26th, prompting users to label the project as "abandoned." This reflects a growing concern reminiscent of other infamous vaporware claims like those involving Hasan Kahraman.
