Update 4.3 — King's Court: a daily event at 8 PM

4.3 brings Global Football's first daily event. Every night King's Court opens: fast games on an enclosed court, with cards, a dice roll and a crown for whoever wins the most.

King's Court — the headline

  • Every day from 8 to 9 PM, in your region's time. There's a court in Brazil, the US and Europe, each on its own server. Just hit JOIN on the menu card.
  • A court with walls: the ball bounces back, no throw-ins or corners. 4 outfield players + an automatic goalkeeper per team, two 4-minute halves.
  • It starts 1v1. Every 40 seconds one more player comes in on each side, up to 4v4.
  • Secret card: each team gets one, and only the captain can use it (C key on PC, tap on mobile). It can be Double goal (60 s), Send-off (a rival goes to the bench for 60 s), Penalty, Shootout (one-on-one with the keeper), Steal card, Cancel card or Wildcard, which becomes the card you pick.
  • Dice in the last minute: it decides how many stay on court until the end, from 1v1 to 4v4.
  • A draw? Golden goal. Back to 1v1, and one more player per side every minute until someone scores.
  • The winners celebrate on the throne, with the match stats.
  • Competitive match XP: 80 per game, +30 for the win, +12 per goal and +8 per assist.
  • King of the Court trophy: the player with the most wins of the night in each region gets the trophy on their profile, with a notification in the bell. Only wins with real people on both teams count; ties are broken by goals.
  • A phone notification at 8 PM when the court opens. Tap it and you're in the event room.
  • The court is also available in private rooms (it can't be combined with fouls mode).
  • Goalkeepers use futsal animations on the court, and now keepers wear gloves in every mode.

Mobile

  • Matches at 60 FPS, with automatic quality adjustment when your phone struggles.
  • One-tap shot: a single tap on SHOOT sends a hard, low shot to the corner away from the keeper. Hold and drag still aims like before.
  • Automatic pass: with the ball, PASS goes to the teammate in the direction you chose.
  • New tutorial, with the real button names and a training partner to pass the ball with.
  • A PLAY screen built for new players, with Quick Match up front, and FIRST STEPS showing the 3 steps.
  • A clearer room list, prices on every shop item and settings selectors no longer cut off.
  • Fixed ranked INVITE, and notifications no longer scroll sideways.

Rooms with and without bots

  • Every server always has one public room with bots and one players-only room.
  • Quick Match takes you where the people are: no more landing alone on an empty pitch.

Improvements

  • The PC menu fits small windows and laptops. Nothing changes on big screens.
  • Off the pitch (on the bench), the camera follows the ball.
  • The tutorial no longer changes your saved controls without you choosing.
  • Cup history: no cancelled cups, and clicking a match shows who scored and assisted.
  • Smarter court bots: hardly any slide tackles, only the nearest one chases a loose ball, and under pressure they pass back.
