A live game for the football you're watching

Two picks. Live points. A match to make yours.

Classic Arena is a one-match football game. Take turns drafting two players, score from their match actions, and swap for available replacements as the match unfolds.

Find a match

Draft two players

Choose a match and join a room. Take turns picking from the available players. Each player belongs to one participant at a time.

Watch your points climb

Goals, assists, tackles and other match actions move your score on the live leaderboard. The highest score at the end wins.

Make your next move

Swap for an available player after the five-minute cooldown. Keep the points you earned and score from your new pick while you hold them.

Can I start free?

Yes. The free Bench plan includes one Arena game per day in one selected competition. Entry uses Arena tokens, and you need enough tokens for your room. Optional subscriptions let you play more games or choose more competitions.

What are Arena tokens?

Arena tokens are virtual game items used to enter rooms. They have no cash value and cannot be withdrawn. Your Arena balance and entry cost are shown before you join.

Do I need friends to play?

You can join a public room on your own or create a private room and invite friends. When the host starts a game with fewer than three participants, bots fill the minimum seats.

How do picks and swaps work?

In classic Arena, each participant drafts two players in turn. Players cannot be shared. During the match, you can swap for an available player after a five-minute cooldown. Points already earned stay with you.

When can I join a match?

Rooms can open 15 minutes before kickoff and remain joinable through minute 75, subject to player availability. A room must still be waiting for its draft. The match browser shows current availability; if a match closes, choose another.

Which competitions can I play?

The match browser shows fixtures from enabled competitions. Your selected competition and subscription determine which games you can enter. Fixture and lineup availability can vary.

Can I play on my phone?

Yes. Play in your browser on mobile or desktop, or download Pitch Wars for iOS from the App Store.
