Snooker 19 is a 2019 sports video game developed by Lab42 and published by Ripstone Games, based on the cue sport snooker.[1] The game was released on 17 April 2019 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, with the Nintendo Switch version coming out on 23 August 2019.[2][3] All 128 players from the World Snooker Tour appear in the game, as do venues from all 26 tournaments, including Alexandra Palace and the Crucible Theatre.[4][5]
Choose from a full suite of offline and online modes, from quick play online match-making to global online tournaments that link in real-time with the live World Snooker calendar. Plus fully customised matches of full snooker, 6-red and shoot-out for both online and offline competition.
Alongside traditional 15 red ball snooker, Snooker 19 also offers 6 ball and Shootout modes. The former plays a little like pool, while the latter includes shot timers to avoid the Terry Griffiths approach of taking minutes between each shot. These are great alternatives to regular snooker and offer the potential for more frenetic games, but it might have been nice to have more fun trick shot modes or pool included.
The Challenge Pack DLC invites everyone to take their best shot and become a better player in a brand new game mode for Snooker 19, adding hours of additional gameplay opportunities. Featuring 50 unique challenges to test skills across positioning, break building, escapes, trick-shot potting puzzles and more, this is the ultimate challenge for any snooker fan.
Challenges are split across two classes; Basic Skills and Advanced Skills, and can be played using a selection of different Aiming Aid difficulties to cater for varying levels of player ability. Master every event and complete all challenge requirements to unlock 26 stylish snooker cue rewards and 5 new trophies/achievements exclusive to the Challenge Pack. Players can choose from this selection of bespoke cues for use in online matches and tournaments, to demonstrate that they are a master of the sport.
Leveraging the visual feature set of Unreal Engine 4, Snooker 19 sets a new visual standard for snooker video games. Lab42 have created a custom advanced physics engine, designed from the ground up to deliver the most true to life snooker experience to date.
Wrapped around the core simulation are three variants of snooker: Traditional, Six Red (punchier, less tactical), and Shoot Out (fast, intense games against the clock). We also have two different career modes: Pro Season, where you start a career as any established pro including the superstars, and Rising Star where you take the role of a up and coming player to rise up the rankings. Both follow the real World Snooker calendar, and so do online tournaments. You can also play quick VS matches, online and offline, matchmaking with players based on your skill or creating your own events with your friends. All modes also reward you with personalisation and customisation options for your pro, including outfits and cues.
Online play seems to be a constant mixture of players who play near perfect snooker that makes you wonder if they are in fact AI or they've hacked the game, and real players who quit as soon as it looks like they're going to lose the frame, rendering the online mode pointless unless you have a family member or friend who also plays the game, which 3 years on is highly unlikely. You can of course play a 2-player game taking turns, but again, who has a family with 2 snooker video game fans in it
The table and balls look great, but even for a three year old game the player likenesses are disappointing. Digitised faces plastered onto blocky heads and generic body models didn't really hack it in 2019, and certainly don't now. I've also got to say that when John Higgins, Mark Allen, Neil Robertson, Mark Selby and Ronnie O'Sullivan all have the same body type you know someone's been a bit lazy, and as a player called BangerBoycie said on Xbox reviews: \"Graeme Dott looks like he's got a terminal disease\" - and he's not alone, check out snooker zombie Jack Lisowski below!
Commentary is supplied by part of the Eurosport snooker team; Neil Foulds and Dave Hendon. They've recorded quite a few comments but they're rarely relevant, often nonsensical and soon get repetitive and annoying - so just like the real thing then! Some of their comments will at first confuse you, then amuse you, then annoy you and then you will probably turn the commentary off if you value your sanity.
It is possible to have a good frame of snooker with Snooker 19, but the chance is always there that the AI will pull out an outrageously silly and unrealistic miracle shot and spoil the whole feel of the game (like when I played John Higgins who smacked the brown hard enough to go backwards and forwards across the table 4 times and just drop in the corner pocket, leading to a jammy total clearance and a highly unlikely win on the black! But I'm not bitter. Oh no, but I'm really glad Ronnie beat him in the semi final though!
If you've been watching the World Snooker (which has been amazing this year) and really, really want a snooker game to play on a Gen 8 or 9 Xbox then you could do worse, but you'd have to look hard. Snooker 19 wasn't very good at launch and it hasn't aged well, but it's only 10.49 in the Xbox store, so what have you got to lose (Apart from 10.49.)
Whether you choose an exhibition game, or career mode or even online play the game is the same (it is snooker after all). The table is presented as though you were watching it on TV (yes, the top down view), even after a number of hours playing this still feels rather strange and I would much rather be lined up behind the shot as though I was going to play the shot as my first screen.
Snooker 19 has a few gameplay options to pick up right from the start, exhibitions, online play as well as 2 different types of career mode. One of them involves taking over as an already established pro player where you can select from any of the top 128 players in the world and try to carve that players name into the archives of World Snooker, the other involves taking over as a rising star (one of around a dozen young players on the circuit) with a similar goal. Unfortunately, neither of these options include the ability to create your own player, a feature that I think would really benefit here as all snooker fans want to see their name carved into the trophy at the Crucible. 59ce067264
