Club Football is a series of football video games, developed and published by Codemasters in 2003 and 2004 for PlayStation 2, PC and Xbox.
Each version of the game focuses on a specific club with their official replica stadium, shirt and players.[1] The player can put themselves in the game with their own attributes.[2]
In May 2002 Codemasters announced their intention to bring the series to the GameCube but these releases did not make it to market.[3]
The series was discontinued in 2004, with Gary Dunn, Codemasters' development director, commenting: "We are taking time out to reassess our strategy in the football action genre. It is an extremely competitive market sector and we will take what we have learnt and build on that for future development."[4]
