The Details of the New AFL Game - AFL23 - Have FINALLY Been Released

It’s out next month 🏉.

Gone are the days of the old AFL Live 2007, because a new AFL game has been finally confirmed.

AFL23 is the brand new AFL video game, and this morning it was officially announced that the new game will be coming out on April 13.

We got a short look at the game in September last year, but finally, we know when we can get our hands on the new release.

The game will be available on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC, and can be pre-ordered from JB Hi-Fi for $79 or EB Games for $99.

The new game will feature multiple modes, including the classic games, as well as management career mode, drafting, player development.

You’ll also be able to create your own clubs, players and stadiums and put them online.

AFL23 will feature online and local co-op play for up to four players, so you can show your mates who’s best and fairest.

This game will also be the first to feature AFLW teams.

Unfortunately, this won’t be like previous games and feature the dulcet tones of Dennis Cometti.

Instead, in-game commentary will be provided by Anthony Hudson, Hamish McLachlan, Daisy Pearce, Daniel Hartford, Kelli Underwood and Jason Bennett.

The game is being developed by Melbourne’s Big Ant studios, who developed the original AFL Live games, before Wicked Witch took over for AFL Evolution.

"The AFL 23 Game is a crucial asset for the AFL to connect with our fans off the field," AFL Executive General Manager Customer and Commercial Kylie Rogers said, "and we look forward to collaborating with Big Ant Studios to deliver the most exciting and authentic AFL gaming experience yet."

As for the graphics, do they look a little janky? Yeah, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t already pre-ordered it.
