Sky Betting & Gaming and Endemol Shine UK today announce the worldwide launch of Sky Sports Soccer Quiz, a brand new mobile trivia game, available to download for free on iOS and Android.
Featuring Sky Sports analysts Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher, plus presenter Natalie Sawyer as your host, the Sky Sports Soccer Quiz tests players’ knowledge to build possession, score goals, and win matches!
Fans can play as their favourite club, and compete in over fifty cup competitions, as well as going Head to Head against Facebook friends and other supporters. There are a variety of question packs to choose from, covering the major European and World leagues, testing players on famous wins, club rivalries, players, stadia, transfers, spot the ball and more.
Players can also use lifelines that feature their favourite Sky Sports analysts for advice, including former Premier League players Paul Merson, Dwight Yorke, Matt Le Tissier and Alan Smith, as well as show hosts Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher.
Bruce Bale, Head of Social Games at Sky Betting & Gaming, said that they were delighted to launch the game in partnership with London-based Endemol Shine UK.
