๐Ÿšจ We have partnered with K12 Licensing to bring real U.S. high schools into Varsity โ€” the first-ever high school football video game. ๐Ÿˆ That means authentic school brands, logos, and uniforms in a true Friday-night experience (no player likenesses), over 400 schools have committed with more schools being added ahead of launch on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. Want your school in the game? Have them complete our licensing form on our website or email [email protected] Stay tuned for official school announcements and release date news.

Number one outcome for the @BenoitSt_Denis sight was dead on in my simulations. ๐Ÿ’ช
Replying to @Pyramid_Lake @ufc
We have @BenoitSt_Denis winning 76.6% of the 10k simulations. Most common path to victory? Submission 65% of the time.

This could go either way. @BorralhoCaio won 50.3% of the 10k simulations, but the most frequent outcome was @imavov1 by KO/TKO in Round 4.

As a consumer I love GamePass. I get to play games I never would have paid for previously, or didnโ€™t know about. As a dev, itโ€™s hard to ignore that downward spiral though.
