The main feature of the game is the World Cup tournament itself, where the player may use either the actual groups used in the finals, or groups composed of a random selection of the included teams. Each match takes place in a recreation of the venue it was played in the actual tournament. As in the real tournament, group games do not go to extra time or a penalty shootout but knockout matches do.

Released 31 March 1998 for Nintendo 64, PlayStation and PC (Microsoft Windows) by EA Canada, published by EA Sports and Gradiente. Rated E by ESRB. About 567890 hours to beat. Up to 4 players locally.
