PC Fútbol was a significant hit in Spain; Marca's Marcos Anton wrote that it "became an absolute legend of the genre".

Former Liverpool player and Spanish television pundit, Michael Robinson was the face and voice of the game, and most of the season analysis inside the updates was signed by him.

A total of nine titles in the main series were released, the first simply numbered, and the final two 2000 and 2001, and sold around 1 million copies altogether.

[citation needed] After numerous attempts to revive the successful series, in 2023 the launch of the game on PC was announced, but in 2024 the pre-sale was suspended amidst much controversy.

In 1996, Gremlin approached the Spanish company to develop new titles on their highly regarded Premier Manager series.

In 2000, EuroLeague Football, an English oriented version of PC Fútbol 2000 was released, published by Sold-Out Software.
