Overview & Key Takeaways

It's never a good sign when we get an email informing us of a new exciting development that starts with: 'I'm not sure how to pitch this.' Well, in this case, simply telling us that none other than DreamWorks' iconic green ogre Shrek is joining the lineup of FIFA Heroes would've been sufficient! Yes, alongside famous content creators such as iShowSpeed, mythical figures including Thor and a host of iconic footballers, FIFA Heroes is introducing six new characters from DreamWorks' smash-hit series. Shrek, Fiona, Puss in Boots, Gingy, Pinocchio and Lord Farquaad will all take to the pitch in the Shrek Season Pass launching August 10th! ... [MORE]

Somebody once told me...

Shrek, Fiona, Puss in Boots, Gingy, Pinocchio and Lord Farquaad will all take to the pitch in the Shrek Season Pass launching August 10th!

Making the dreams work

The Shrek Season Pass will include the six characters above, as well as new emojis, a Donkey avatar and a goal celebration. It's a fitting time for this kind of collaboration, considering that the first Shrek film is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year!

There is something to be said for how FIFA Heroes really changes the perspective of the beautiful game, from just the players themselves to all the celebrities and characters that have made this World Cup something of a pop-culture circus. For better or for worse? Hard to tell yet.

Either way, come August 10th, there'll be plenty of new content to sink your boots into, even if it is all Shrek-themed. And with the World Cup set to wrap this weekend, it may very well be that we'll see some striking results that get more and more people into football this summer!

But if you really want to feed your hunger for more athletic action, then there're plenty of other options on mobile. Check out our list of the best football games on iOS for starters, where we've picked out some of the top footie options you can play on mobile right now!

The Convergence is a dark fantasy auto-battler that uses an isometric perspective

As we head towards midday, there's an interesting little iOS auto-battler that's just crossed my desk. That's a genre I've often expressed confusion about the appeal of in the past, but if there's one that can justify why people like it, I reckon that The Convergence, out now on iOS, may just be that! With its isometric perspective and dark fantasy world, it's easy to see that The Convergence may have taken some significant inspiration from the world of Diablo. In it, you equip your heroes and send them out, watching as they either succeed or fail based on your preparation. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/the-convergence/out-now-on-ios/)

MoonDust: Cosmic Journey is an atmospheric sci-fi side-scroller with lush graphics

It's hard to really communicate the majesty and grandeur of outer space in gaming. I mean, there's only so many times you can stare in wonder at stars and nebulae before it all gets a bit samey. Fortunately, MoonDust: Cosmic Journey offers a truly visually attention-grabbing take on worlds of sci-fi and outer space! Available now on iOS, MoonDust is described by the developer as an atmospheric sci-fi exploration game. What that means is you'll have basic side-scrolling action in the foreground as you pilot your ship and avoid obstacles while collecting different elements, as in the background a gorgeous vista of strange alien worlds goes by. ...

Sally Face is the tale of one boy, his portable console, a prosthetic face and the horrors

The indie horror game is practically a genre unto itself. And with so many of them, there are equally ludicrous and disturbing premises for how the nightmare begins. But I think Sally Face is probably a standalone for its main character literally not having a face, and surprisingly, they're not the villain either! Sally Face sees you taking on the role of the titular character, a boy with a dark and troubled past, which is probably the best you can hope for, having to wear a prosthetic face after yours was destroyed. With the help of a portable gaming console that allows him to speak with the dead, Sal will have to solve a series of disturbing mysteries plaguing his home town with the help of his friends. ...
