To mark the occasion, we’ve unveiled a brand new gameplay trailer to showcase the kind of kit-wrangling mayhem that you can get up to as the real unsung hero of a soccer club.

The Kitman playtest will run from May 30th until June 3rd. Those who signed up will have a chance to try out the game’s core loop of wrangling kit, dealing with match day mayhem, and surreptitiously managing the club behind the scenes.

Victory will mean staying on top of tasks like cleaning and repairing damaged gear, but also thinking tactically and prepping your team ahead of time for the matches to come.

We estimate about an hour or two of gameplay, and the playtest will support both solo play and up to 4 player online co-op.

We Want Your Feedback!

Feedback from the Kitman playtest will be used to shape the game into the fun-filled sports management experience that you’ve been asking for ahead of our full release later this year.

If the game has issues, bugs, or isn’t what you expected, we want to hear all about it!

What’s Next for Kitman?

If you weren’t among those who signed up to join the playtest, don’t worry. After this first test we’ll be sprucing up the game based on the feedback we receive, but we’re aiming to keep the wait for another playable version of Kitman as short as possible.

To stay up to date with all things Kitman related, make sure you’re following the game on Steam.

We’ll have lots more exciting developments to share with you soon.
