Madrid/Haugesund, 24 February 2022 – LaLiga and Superclub are proud to announce that Spain’s top football league will join forces with the football manager board game later this year with an official licensed expansion pack set to launch in October.

Spanish professional football is loved around the globe. Some of the world’s most famous teams, fiercest rivalries, and many of the best players call LaLiga home.

“Everybody knows that LaLiga represents the pinnacle of club football. We’re so proud to work with them. We’re sure that introducing licensed LaLiga IP into our game will provide incredible value to our mutual fans!” says Kjetil Hetlevik Johansen, CEO of Superclub.

“We’re very impressed with and grateful for, LaLiga’s openness and positivity. We felt that we were a good match right from the start, and it’s great to get this deal across the finish line. Now the real work begins, and we look forward to working together for many years,” added Hetlevik Johansen. 

“Here at LaLiga, we’re delighted to be working with Superclub on developing a way of bringing our competition to fans through something as synonymous with entertainment as board games. We’re excited for this new game to become available all around the world,” said Oscar Mayo, Executive Director at LaLiga.

“Managers can choose whether they want to play a LaLiga-only game or if they want to mix the LaLiga IP with the original Superclub game. The main game is being translated to Spanish, but the LaLiga expansion pack will also be playable in other languages. We can’t wait to share our game with football fans worldwide”, says Audun Egenberg, Creative Manager of Superclub.

Game development is well underway and on schedule to be completed later this year.

Superclub AS is a one-game game studio from Norway on a mission to create the world's most social, entertaining, and rewarding football gaming experience.
