Blue Sphere Games Announces its Second Coca-Cola Mobile Game "Coca-Cola Soccer"

For Immediate Release

Birmingham, UK (23rd September, 2005)

Blue Sphere Games, a leading developer of mobile games, is proud to announce the release of its second Coca-Cola mobile game: "Coca-Cola Soccer".

An exciting new departure from ordinary mobile phone football games, Coca-Cola Soccer is a brand new, urban-style football game with a touch of real Coke magic! The game plays just like 5 a side football with the addition of some Coca-Cola power ups:-

1) FlameBall - where the ball turns into an unstoppable ball of flame, perfect for that all important shot at goal

2) IceBall - where the ball turns into a ball of ice, turning any opposing player it touches into a frosted snow man.

3) Telepass - in this power-up, the ball acquires an instant "teleport pass" capability. When the player passes the ball, all action is paused as the ball dematerialises; and then re-materialises at the feet of the pass's recipient, perfect for that break away attack.

4) Lightningshot - This awesome power-up turns the ball into a blue/white lightning globe. The ball can then be shot, leaving a lightning trail behind, as the player makes it turn in any direction he wishes. This guided lighting missile can allow you to score from anywhere on the pitch!

"Coca-Cola Soccer" is an ultra-new, super-exciting slant on the world's favourite sport, full of extraordinary football graphics, authentic football action and fantastic graphic and sound effects designed to keep even the most demanding player enthralled for hours!

Blue Sphere Chairman David Bozward says: "The 'twist' of this Coca-Cola Soccer game makes it incredible fun for players of all ages. It's a totally new generation of mobile phone football game - and whether or not the players are football fans, they're guaranteed to find it totally addictive!"

Antonia Toczyska, Acting European Licensing Director for Coca-Cola stated: "We are very excited about the launch of Coca-Cola Soccer as it enables us to further engage teens and young adults while leveraging our strong association with football. Blue Sphere Games have used their expertise to cleverly integrate the brand in a new and exciting way which we are sure will prove very successful".
