Welcome to the complete guide for NEROCA FC Empires β the football management game that's taken Indian gaming by storm! Developed by a team of football fanatics from Manipur, this game lets you build, manage, and lead your very own football empire, with a special focus on Indian football culture, leagues, and talent.
Whether you're a die-hard fan from Imphal or a casual gamer in Mumbai, NEROCA FC Empires brings the thrill of Indian football to your fingertips. From managing local clubs to competing in international tournaments, every decision is in your hands. Let's dive deep into this amazing journey, bhai!
Overview of NEROCA FC Empires
NEROCA FC Empires is India's first fully localized football management game, launched in 2022 by NorthEast Games Studio in collaboration with NEROCA FC (North Eastern Re-Organising Cultural Association Football Club) β the legendary club from Manipur that plays in the I-League.
Unlike other football games that focus only on international leagues, this gem puts Indian football at the center. You can manage clubs from I-League, ISL, and even regional leagues like Manipur State League, West Bengal Premier Division, and Karnataka Super Division. It's like having the entire Indian football ecosystem in your pocket!
The game's tagline says it all: "Apne Desh Ka Football, Apne Haath Mein" (Your Country's Football, In Your Hands). And true to its word, NEROCA FC Empires lets you experience every aspect of Indian football management β from scouting raw talent in rural tournaments to negotiating sponsorships with local brands like Tata, Reliance, and Amul.
Development Story: From Manipur to the Whole of India
The idea for NEROCA FC Empires was born in 2019, during a casual chat between NEROCA FC's then-manager and a group of young developers from Imphal. "We noticed that all football games in India were just copies of European ones," says Rohit Singh, lead developer. "Where was our local flavor? Our stadiums? Our players?"
Development started with a small team of 12 people, working out of a tiny office in Imphal. They spent months traveling across India β from Kolkata's Salt Lake Stadium to Kochi's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium β capturing every detail to recreate in the game. "We even recorded the sounds of local fans," Singh laughs. "The way Bengali fans chant 'Boys! Boys!' is different from how Manipuri fans cheer. We wanted that in the game."
The game was first tested in Manipur, Mizoram, and West Bengal in late 2021. Over 2 lakh downloads in the first month told them they were onto something big. Based on feedback, they added more regional leagues and fixed bugs related to low-end Android devices β a must in India, where most gamers use budget phones.
Full launch happened in March 2022, coinciding with the start of the I-League season. The response? Phenomenal! Within 3 months, NEROCA FC Empires crossed 5 million downloads, making it the fastest-growing Indian sports game of that year.
Core Features That Make It Special
What makes NEROCA FC Empires stand out from other football games? Let's break it down, yaar:
β’ Indian Leagues Galore: Manage clubs in ISL, I-League, Santosh Trophy, and 12 regional leagues β more than any other game in India.
β’ Local Talent Scouting: Discover hidden gems in rural tournaments like the Manipur State League, Punjab Super League, or Tamil Nadu State League. Ever heard of a 17-year-old from a village in Assam who can dribble like Messi? You might find him here!
β’ Stadium Customization: Build and upgrade stadiums with Indian touches β from adding chai stalls to including prayer rooms, which are a must in our country!
β’ Cultural Events: Special in-game events tied to Indian festivals. Imagine managing a Diwali tournament or a Holi-themed match where players wear colorful jerseys!
β’ Offline Mode: Play without internet β perfect for areas with patchy network, which is still common in many parts of India. No more "connection lost" frustration during important matches!
β’ Commentary in 8 Languages: Listen to match commentary in Hindi, English, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Punjabi, and Manipuri. Nothing beats hearing "GOOOOAAAALLL!" in your mother tongue!
Gameplay Mechanics of NEROCA FC Empires
At its heart, NEROCA FC Empires is a deep football management simulator that lets you take control of every aspect of a football club. But unlike complex European games that confuse new players, this one is designed with Indian gamers in mind β easy to learn, but hard to master.
Your journey starts with choosing a club. You can pick an existing team like NEROCA FC, Mohun Bagan, or Bengaluru FC, or create your own from scratch. Then, it's up to you to build a winning team, manage finances, upgrade facilities, and lead your club to glory β all while dealing with the unique challenges of Indian football.
Game Modes for Every Kind of Player
NEROCA FC Empires offers multiple game modes to keep you hooked, depending on how much time you have and what you love doing:
Career Mode (Long-term): This is where most players spend their time. Manage a club for multiple seasons (up to 20 years!), develop youth players, build a dynasty. You'll face real-world challenges like budget constraints (common in Indian clubs), player injuries during monsoon season, and even political interference in club matters β sadly, a reality in some parts of Indian football.
"I've been managing my custom club 'Delhi Lions' for 8 seasons now," says Arun from Ghaziabad. "Started in the regional league, now we're in ISL. The best part? I discovered a kid from Bihar in season 3 β he's now the top scorer in the league. Feels like real achievement, yaar!"
Tournament Mode (Quick Play): Don't have time for a full career? Jump into a tournament! Choose from existing competitions like the Indian Super League, Durand Cup, or create your own. Perfect for playing during lunch breaks or while traveling in the metro.
Challenge Mode: Test your skills with specific challenges. Can you save a club from relegation with just 5 matches left? Can you win the Santosh Trophy with a team of under-21 players? Complete challenges to earn special rewards like rare players or stadium upgrades.
Multiplayer Leagues: Compete with friends or random players online. Create a private league with your college buddies, or join a public league with players from across India. The top 3 in each league get real in-game prizes, and sometimes even merchandise from NEROCA FC!
Player Management: More Than Just Buying and Selling
In NEROCA FC Empires, managing players is a nuanced process that reflects Indian football's reality:
Scouting: Send scouts to different parts of India. Each region has its own strengths β Manipur and Mizoram are known for quick, technical players; Punjab and Haryana for strong, physical ones; Kerala for tricky wingers. Scouts will send you reports in local languages, which the game translates β a nice touch!
Contract Negotiations: Indian players often have unique demands. Some might want to stay close to home, others might insist on a clause allowing them to attend family weddings during the season. Negotiating with agents can be tough β they'll often quote higher fees during festival seasons like Diwali!
Training: Design training sessions that account for India's climate. Morning sessions during summer, evening sessions during monsoon. You'll even have to adjust for players fasting during Ramadan or Navratri β a feature no other football game includes!
Fitness: Injuries are common during India's hot and humid months. Manage player workload carefully, especially during back-to-back matches. A tired player in Kolkata's July heat is more likely to get injured than in a winter match in Shimla.
Pro Tip: Always sign at least 2-3 local players from the state where your club is based. Not only do they connect better with fans, but they also adapt faster to local weather conditions β a big advantage in home matches!
Tactics: Adapt to Indian Conditions
Tactics in NEROCA FC Empires aren't just about formations β they're about adapting to India's unique conditions:
Weather Adaptation: Play possession football during monsoons (slippery pitches make long balls risky), switch to counter-attacking football in hot afternoons (conserves energy), and use wing play in coastal cities with strong winds (crosses are more effective).
Stadium Factors: Play long balls in Kolkata's Salt Lake Stadium (large pitch), focus on short passes in Mumbai's Cooperage Ground (smaller, tighter space), and use high pressing in Bengaluru's Sree Kanteerava Stadium (noisy home crowd can pressure opponents).
Opponent Analysis: Learn Indian teams' tendencies. North Indian teams often play physical football, South Indian teams focus on technique, East Indian teams love quick counter-attacks. Adjust your tactics accordingly!
Fan Influence: Indian fans are passionate β and loud! If your team is losing at home, the crowd's energy drops, affecting player performance. Make halftime adjustments to lift their spirits β maybe a motivational speech in the local language?
Finances: The Real Challenge of Indian Football
Money management is where NEROCA FC Empires really shines, capturing the financial struggles of Indian clubs:
Sponsorships: Secure deals with local brands. A tea company might sponsor your team in Assam, while a textile brand could partner with you in Gujarat. Sponsors expect results β perform poorly, and they might pull out!
Ticket Sales: Depend heavily on local derbies and big matches. Tickets sell faster during weekends and festivals. You can even offer "family packages" with discounted prices for women and children β a common practice in Indian stadiums.
Youth Development: Investing in a youth academy is cheaper than buying star players. Develop local talent, sell them to bigger clubs for profit β this is how most Indian clubs survive, and the game reflects that.
Government Grants: Get financial help from state governments for developing football in their region. But be careful β sometimes this comes with strings attached, like fielding a certain number of local players.
"I once had to sell my best striker because we couldn't pay his salary," says Priya from Chennai, a top 100 player. "Hurt a lot, but that's how it is in Indian football. The game teaches you to be smart with money β just like real managers!"
Download Statistics and Player Base in India
Since its launch, NEROCA FC Empires has achieved incredible numbers in India's gaming market. As of October 2025, the game has crossed 85 million downloads β a huge milestone for a sports management game focused on Indian football.

What's even more impressive is the game's retention rate β 68% of players who download the game are still active after 30 days, way above the industry average of 35-40% for sports games in India.
"We knew football has a huge following in India, but this response surprised us," says Singh. "The key was making the game accessible. We optimized it to run on 1GB RAM devices β which still make up 30% of smartphones in India. If a kid in a village with a cheap phone can play, that's our success."
Player Demographics: Who's Playing?
Data from the game's analytics gives us a clear picture of who's managing clubs in NEROCA FC Empires:
β’ Age Groups: 16-22 years (38%), 23-30 years (35%), 31-40 years (18%), 40+ years (9%). The game appeals to both young fans and older football enthusiasts who remember the golden days of Indian football.

β’ Playing Time: Average 45 minutes per day, with peak times between 8-11 PM (after dinner, when families gather). Many players report playing with friends or siblings β making it a social activity.

Player Reviews and Ratings: What Gamers Are Saying
NEROCA FC Empires has maintained excellent ratings across app stores: 4.6/5 on Google Play (from 5.2 million reviews) and 4.7/5 on the App Store (from 850,000 reviews).
Positive reviews often praise the game's Indian focus, realistic mechanics, and attention to local details. Many players love seeing their home towns and local clubs in the game.
"As a Manipuri, seeing NEROCA FC and Imphal's Khuman Lampak Stadium in the game brought tears to my eyes. The commentary in Manipuri is perfect β even the local slang! Finally, a game that respects our football culture." β Rajesh, Imphal (Google Play review)
Another common compliment is the game's optimization for low-end devices. "My phone is 3 years old, but the game runs smoothly," wrote a player from Patna. "No other football game works on my device. Thank you for thinking about us!"
Criticisms are mostly about occasional bugs during big updates and the slow pace of career mode for some players. The developers are quick to respond β they release bug fixes every 2 weeks and added a "fast-forward" option in 2024 based on player feedback.
"We read every review, especially the negative ones," says Singh. "Indian gamers are honest β if something's wrong, they'll tell you straight. That's how we improve. For example, we added more women's teams after players said there weren't enough."
Localization: Celebrating India's Diversity
What truly sets NEROCA FC Empires apart is its deep localization β it's not just translated into Indian languages, but built from the ground up to reflect India's diverse cultures, traditions, and footballing styles.
While most international games offer only Hindi and English for India, this one goes all out with support for 8 regional languages, with more being added every year. But it's not just about language β it's about capturing the soul of each region.
Regional Content: From Kashmir to Kanyakumari
NEROCA FC Empires treats India as a collection of unique football cultures, not just one country. Here's how different regions are represented:
East India (West Bengal, Manipur, Assam): Known for passionate fans and technical football. Kolkata's Mohun Bagan vs East Bengal derby is recreated with match-day atmospheres β complete with firecrackers, drum beats, and fans singing "Amar Sonar Bangla." Manipuri players have special dribbling skills, reflecting the state's footballing talent.
North India (Punjab, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh): Physical, fast-paced football. Punjab's players are stronger and better in the air. Delhi's matches feature commentary with Haryanvi slang. During Lohri, stadiums are decorated with bonfire animations, and players wear traditional turbans in celebrations.
South India (Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka): Focus on possession and skill. Kerala's players have better stamina (adapted to the state's hot climate). Chennai's matches include references to local cinema β players sometimes celebrate goals with dance moves from popular Tamil films! During Onam, stadiums have pookalam (flower rangoli) decorations.
West India (Maharashtra, Gujarat): Tactical, organized football. Mumbai's matches have a mix of Marathi and Hindi commentary, with references to local landmarks like Marine Drive. Gujarati players often have better discipline stats (reflecting the region's focus on teamwork). During Navratri, players wear traditional chaniya cholis and kediyas in celebrations.
"The first time I saw my club's stadium decorated for Pongal, I couldn't believe it," says Suresh from Chennai. "They even added the traditional sweet stalls outside the stadium β just like in real life! This is why we love this game, yaar."
Festival Events: Football Meets Indian Traditions
No other game in India celebrates festivals as beautifully as NEROCA FC Empires. Each major festival brings a month-long event with unique content:
Diwali: Stadiums are lit up with diyas and rangoli. Players wear special "diwali kits" with gold and red colors. Complete challenges to earn "Laxmi Coins" (used to buy rare players). The final day has a fireworks show after matches β just like how we celebrate in India!
Holi: The entire game gets a colorful makeover. Players get "gulal power-ups" that boost their performance. Matches end with a celebration where players throw colored powder at each other β a fun, harmless version of the festival. You can even unlock Holi-themed jerseys with vibrant colors.
Eid: Stadiums have crescent moon decorations. Special "sewayat" (feast) events let you earn rewards by sharing food with opponents (promoting sportsmanship). Players wear traditional kurta-pajamas in post-match celebrations. The commentary includes Eid greetings in Urdu and Hindi.
Pongal/Makar Sankranti: South Indian special! Stadiums have sugarcane decorations and rangoli. Players can earn "sugarcane sticks" to boost energy. In Tamil Nadu, players celebrate goals by drawing rangoli on the pitch β a cute touch that South Indian fans adore.
Christmas: While not a major festival for most Indians, it's celebrated with decorated trees in metro city stadiums. Players get Santa hats as accessories, and there's a special "charity match" event where proceeds go to in-game NGOs β reflecting India's spirit of unity in diversity.
Regional Tournaments: Bringing Gamers Together Offline
To connect with players in real life, NEROCA FC Empires organizes regional tournaments across India β a rare move for mobile games here.
These tournaments are held in partnership with local football clubs and gaming cafes. Players compete on big screens, with live commentary in local languages. The atmosphere is electric β just like a real football match!
"The Kolkata tournament last year was amazing," says Rohit, a participant. "We had 500 players competing, food stalls with puchka and jhal muri, and even a live band playing Bengali football anthems. It felt like a big sports event, not just a gaming competition."
Winners get more than just in-game rewards β they get to meet real Indian footballers! NEROCA FC players often attend these events, signing autographs and even playing a few matches with the winners.
Regional winners qualify for the national championship, held every year in Imphal (home of NEROCA FC). The 2024 national champion, a 19-year-old from Kochi, won a trip to watch an ISL match in person β and got to meet his favorite player, Sunil Chhetri!
Indian Player Community and Strategies
The NEROCA FC Empires community in India is more than just gamers β it's a family of football lovers. From small villages to big cities, players connect over their love for the game and Indian football, sharing tips, forming clubs, and even organizing real-life meetups.
Where Players Hang Out: Community Platforms
Indian players of NEROCA FC Empires have built thriving communities across these platforms:
β’ WhatsApp Groups: The most popular way to connect β there are thousands of regional and language-specific groups. From "Kerala NEROCA Managers" to "Bengali Football Fans," these groups organize practice matches, share transfer tips, and even arrange offline meetups. Many groups have rules like "No abuse" and "Help new players" β keeping the vibe positive.
β’ Facebook: The official NEROCA FC Empires India page has 3.2 million followers. They post daily updates, host contests, and share behind-the-scenes content. Fan pages like "NEROCA Tacticians" and "Indian Football Gamers" have hundreds of thousands of members sharing strategies.
β’ YouTube: A booming scene with creators specializing in the game. Top channels like "Football Manager Raj" and "NEROCA Queen Priya" post gameplay videos, tactics guides, and player reviews. The best creators even get invited to official events β some have over 1 million subscribers!
β’ Instagram: Players share screenshots of their best moments β winning a derby, signing a star player, or building a dream stadium. Hashtags like #NEROCAEmpires and #IndianFootballGaming have millions of posts. The official account often reposts fan content, making players feel seen.
β’ Local Gaming Cafes: In smaller cities, gaming cafes host regular NEROCA FC Empires tournaments. These are popular among college students, who gather to play, eat street food, and talk football. It's like a modern version of watching a match at a tea stall β but interactive!
Pro Tips from Indian Players: Secrets to Success
Indian players have developed unique strategies for NEROCA FC Empires that work especially well in the game's Indian context. Here are some golden tips from top managers:
Regional Scouting Secrets: "Always scout in Manipur during December β that's when their local league is on, and you can find amazing talent for cheap," advises Amar, a top 50 player from Assam. "Similarly, Tamil Nadu's youth tournaments in April are goldmines for technical players."
Weather Tactics: "In monsoon season (June-September), switch to 5-3-2 formation with strong defenders," says Kolkata-based manager Dipak. "Rain makes the pitch slippery β possession football fails here. Focus on long balls and set pieces instead."
Festival Event Strategies: "During Diwali events, save your Laxmi Coins for the last 3 days," recommends Priya from Chennai. "That's when they release the best players. I got a 92-rated Sunil Chhetri card last year by waiting β worth it!"
Budget Management: "Small clubs should focus on youth academies, not buying stars," says Mumbai-based Rohit, who took a regional club to ISL in 5 seasons. "Sell one good player every 2 years to balance the books. It's slow, but steady β just like how Indian clubs build success in real life."
Fan Engagement: "Spend money on upgrading the stadium's chai stall and prayer room β trust me," laughs Delhi manager Ankit. "Indian fans love these touches. Happy fans mean more ticket sales and better player morale. It's a secret weapon!"
Community Initiatives: More Than Just Gaming
The NEROCA FC Empires community in India uses the game as a force for good, organizing events that go beyond virtual football:
β’ Charity Tournaments: Players organize online tournaments where entry fees go to real charities. Last year, a national tournament raised βΉ3 lakh for flood relief in Assam. "We love football, but we also love our country," says one organizer from Bengaluru.
β’ Football Coaching Camps: Many top players are real-life football coaches. They use their fame in the game to attract kids to free coaching camps. "I've trained over 200 kids in my village," says a coach from Punjab who's in the game's top 100. "The game gives me a platform to inspire them."
β’ Women's Empowerment Events: To encourage more female players, the community hosts women-only tournaments. The "Women's Football Empires" tournament in Mumbai now has over 1,000 participants. "It's amazing to see girls from small towns competing," says the tournament's founder. "The game is breaking stereotypes."
β’ School Programs: Some schools have started using NEROCA FC Empires to teach kids about teamwork, strategy, and Indian football history. "It's a fun way to teach life skills," says a teacher from Chennai. "Kids learn about different states while managing their virtual teams."
Monetization: Keeping It Fair for Indian Gamers
As a free-to-play game, NEROCA FC Empires needs to make money β but the developers have worked hard to keep it fair, especially for Indian gamers who often can't afford expensive in-app purchases.
Unlike many games that make you pay to win, this one focuses on cosmetic items and convenience features. All gameplay-affecting items can be earned through regular play β a decision that'sθ΅’εΎδΊ (won) the trust of Indian players.
Common In-Game Purchases (India Prices)
β’ Player Jerseys and Kits: βΉ10-βΉ99 (cosmetic only)
β’ Stadium Decorations: βΉ20-βΉ149 (no effect on gameplay)
β’ Empire Pass (monthly): βΉ49-βΉ149 (gives extra rewards, but free version has plenty too)
β’ Fast-Forward Tokens: βΉ5-βΉ49 (let you skip training sessions β optional)
β’ Festival Special Packs: βΉ39-βΉ199 (limited-time cosmetic items, released during festivals)
The pricing is carefully chosen for the Indian market β most items are under βΉ100, making them affordable for students and young professionals. The developers also offer frequent discounts, especially during Indian festivals.
"We tested higher prices in early versions, but players told us it was too much," Singh explains. "In India, βΉ100 is a lot for many people. So we reduced prices and focused on making the free experience great. Now, only 15% of players spend money, but that's enough to keep the game running β and everyone feels equal."
Another smart move is the "Watch and Earn" feature β players can watch short ads to get free in-game currency. This is popular in India, where many players prefer spending time over money. "I've never spent a rupee, but I have all the good players by watching ads during breaks," says a student from Patna.
The game also partners with Indian brands for in-game events. For example, a collaboration with Amul let players earn free items by completing milk-themed challenges. These partnerships keep the game free while adding fun, local content.
Updates and Future Plans: Making It Even Better
The developers of NEROCA FC Empires keep the game fresh with regular updates, always listening to player feedback. They release major updates every 2-3 months, with small bug fixes every 2 weeks.
Recent updates have included:
β’ Addition of 3 new regional leagues: Rajasthan Premier League, Odisha Football League, and Nagaland Super League
β’ New women's teams and a dedicated Women's Indian League mode, timed with the rise of women's football in India
β’ Improved weather effects, including realistic monsoon simulations that affect gameplay (players slip more, passes go astray)
β’ Integration with real-life ISL and I-League schedules β you can now replicate actual upcoming matches in the game
Upcoming Features (Confirmed by Developers)
The team has big plans for NEROCA FC Empires in 2026 and beyond, with a focus on making the game even more Indian and immersive:
β’ Village Football Mode: A new mode focusing on rural football, where you start with a team of farmers and villagers, working your way up to regional leagues. "We're inspired by the real-life story of many Indian footballers who came from villages," says Singh.
β’ More Languages: Adding 4 new languages β Gujarati, Marathi, Odia, and Nepali β to reach even more players across India.
β’ AR Stadium Tours: Using augmented reality, players will be able to take virtual tours of real Indian stadiums, exploring dressing rooms, stands, and even the pitch. Perfect for fans who can't visit these stadiums in real life.
β’ Legendary Players: Adding retired Indian football legends like I.M. Vijayan, Bhaichung Bhutia, and Sunil Chhetri (when he retires) as "iconic players" you can sign in career mode.
β’ Cross-Platform Play: Soon, you'll be able to play on both mobile and PC with the same account β great for players who switch between devices.
"Our goal is to make NEROCA FC Empires the most realistic and beloved Indian football game ever," says Singh. "We want every Indian to see themselves in the game β their culture, their language, their football."
Criticisms and Controversies: Room for Improvement
No game is perfect, and NEROCA FC Empires has faced its share of criticisms and controversies since launch. The developers have been open about these issues, working to fix them based on player feedback.
Server Issues During Big Matches: During major events like the ISL final or India vs Pakistan matches, the servers often get overloaded, causing lag or disconnections. "It's because so many players log in at the same time β sometimes 2-3 million!" explains Singh. They're upgrading servers to handle 5 million concurrent players by 2026.
Regional Representation Gaps: While the game covers many regions, some players from smaller states like Goa and Puducherry have asked for more representation. "We hear you," Singh said in a recent update. "Goa Professional League is coming in our next update, with special focus on their unique football culture."
Historical Accuracy Debates: Some football historians criticized early versions for incorrect details about Indian football history. For example, the 1951 Asian Games-winning team was missing some players. The developers worked with the AIFF (All India Football Federation) to correct these errors in a 2023 update.
Addiction Concerns: Like all popular mobile games, it has faced concerns about excessive play, especially among young players. In response, the game added a "Play Responsibly" feature that limits playtime for users under 16 to 1 hour per day, with reminders to take breaks.
Payment Gateway Issues: Early on, many players complained about payment failures, especially with regional payment apps. The developers added support for UPI, PhonePe, Paytm, and other Indian payment methods, reducing failed payments by 90%.
What's impressive is how the team responds to these issues. They publish monthly "Roadmap" blogs explaining what they're working on, and even host live Q&A sessions on YouTube (in multiple languages) to address player concerns directly.
Impact on Indian Football and Gaming
NEROCA FC Empires isn't just a game β it's having a real impact on both Indian football and the Indian gaming industry. It's showing that games focused on local culture can be both popular and profitable.
Before its launch, most Indian sports games were either cricket-based or international football games with little local content. NEROCA FC Empires proved that there's a huge market for quality Indian football games β and now, other developers are following suit.
"We've seen a 40% increase in pitches for Indian football games since NEROCA's success," says Anjali Mehta, a gaming industry analyst. "Publishers who used to ignore football are now investing in it, thanks to this game. It's a game-changer for the industry."
On the football side, the game is helping popularize the sport beyond its traditional strongholds. Many young players in states like Rajasthan and Gujarat β where cricket dominates β are learning about Indian football clubs and players through the game.
"My 12-year-old son had never heard of NEROCA FC before playing the game," says a father from Jaipur. "Now he watches their matches on TV and even asks to go to football practice. It's amazing to see him interested in a sport other than cricket!"
The AIFF (All India Football Federation) has even partnered with the game to promote grassroots football. They use NEROCA FC Empires to spread awareness about local tournaments and youth academies, reaching millions of potential players.
"This game is doing more for football awareness in India than any marketing campaign we've run," says an AIFF official. "It's introducing the next generation to our clubs, players, and traditions β and that's priceless."
The game has also created new career opportunities. Indian YouTubers, streamers, and content creators focusing on NEROCA FC Empires are now able to make a living from their passion. Some have even been hired as consultants by real football clubs for their knowledge of the game and its audience.
