Adidas Power Soccer

Adidas Power Soccer is an association football game developed and published by Psygnosis for the PlayStation in 1996, the first entry in the Adidas Power Soccer series and sponsored by German sportswear brand Adidas. The game offers season, cup, and tournament modes with teams drawn from across Europe and beyond, supporting both single-player and multiplayer.

Three PAL variants are catalogued in the database, spanning France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, and the UK. Release types are Original and Platinum, with the earliest PAL release date recorded as 10 June 1996. Both original releases use a Full Jewel PAL case with no hologram on the case, while the Platinum reissue uses a Full Jewel PAL case with a hologram on the case. Language coverage spans English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish across the variants. The two original releases are distinguished by their EAN barcodes and covered territories, with one covering France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain, and the other covering Germany, UK, and France. No loose paperwork or bundled demo discs have been documented for any variant. As the first game in the series, Adidas Power Soccer holds a degree of historical interest for collectors of football titles and Psygnosis releases alike.
