A new Retro Bowl update has arrived for both iOS and Android devices. The update adds team name and uniform editing, difficulty settings, reduced field goal kicking range and so much more.
For those of you that haven’t downloaded and played this gem, the game is absolutely free, so there’s no reason not to try it out.
Here’s what’s new in the update.
- Fixed punt crash
- New uniforms (from @pixelnfl)
Some uniform tweaks for @retro_bowl in progress. Updated Home / White ones coming soon 👍. (Adding alternates like Color Rush / Throwback might happen later down the line, we were just testing them out here) #retrobowl #pixelnfl pic.twitter.com/1srm2ZbSoy

Also, just in case you missed it, here is our Retro Bowl review.
In the end, Retro Bowl is quite possibly the most fun mobile game I have ever played. Sure, there’s only so much you can do before you’re just playing tirelessly through each season with hopes of winning back-to-back titles. But for a game that seems so simple, it’s anything but simple. As you progress deeper into a season, the game seems to get much harder, and you will need to prioritize the players you sign via free agency and the draft. After spending the last week with the game, it has lived up to the hype and much more.
