With FIFA World Cup 2022 kicking off in Qatar on November 20th, it is one of the hottest topics in the world right now. Broadcasting networks predict that the global soccer tournament will attract more than five billion viewers! If these figures are correct, it will outshine its 2018 record of 3.5 billion!

We love an exciting and well-designed football-themed slot as much as a rousing match on the pitch. This year the Game developers put their best foot forward in the hopes of scoring big with their latest soccer slots.
