==History==
''Sega Worldwide Soccer'', produced by Sega themselves, was a [[launch game]] for the [[Sega Saturn]]'s North American release.<ref>{{cite magazine |title=1995: The Calm Before the Storm?|journal=[[Next Generation (magazine)|Next Generation]]|issue=13 |publisher=[[Imagine Media]] |date=January 1996|page=47}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine |title=Sega Hopes to Run Rings Around the Competition with Early Release of the Saturn|magazine=[[Electronic Gaming Monthly]]|issue=72|publisher=Sendai Publishing|date=July 1995|page=30}}</ref> It was preceded by ''International Victory Goal'', one of the debut titles of the console. The game featured international teams and league, play-off and tournament modes. Although it used fictional player names (due to the lack of a [[license]]), the [[non-volatile memory]] of the Saturn allowed editing of names. The team kits were as close to the official 1996 kits as possible. The game was the top-rated football game until ''[[International Superstar Soccer 64]]'' was released one year later.{{cncitation needed|date=April 2015}} ''Worldwide Soccer'' was later ported to the [[Personal Computer|PC]].
 
One year later ''Sega Worldwide Soccer 98'' was released, again for the Saturn. This version featured (still unlicensed) clubs from [[England]], [[Spain]] and [[France]], two new stadiums and the same free-flowing gameplay.
