New draft-and-sim title covers Eliteserien and the Norwegian Cup, with player and team data from 2005 to 2026.

Kongebonus has launched 30-0 Kongeserien, a football draft and simulation game built around Norway’s Eliteserien and the Norwegian Cup. The game is available now via Kongebonus.

The company positions 30-0 Kongeserien as Norway’s first fantasy-style draft game created specifically for the Eliteserien and Norwegian Cup. It includes real clubs, player names and team data spanning 2005 to 2026, letting users draft teams across different eras and simulate a season.

Kongebonus said the Norwegian Cup component introduces knockout dynamics and lower-league upset logic. The game also includes historical and “legacy” sides, including the 1998 national team and a Rosenborg team from the period of its Inter Milan matchups.

David Nilsen, Editor-in-Chief at Kongebonus, said: “We wanted to give Norwegian fans a game that is completely dedicated to our own football, featuring real clubs, seasons and player names from 2005 to 2026.

“What makes Kongebonus different is that we listen closely to our community and move quickly when we see something they will enjoy. We built 30-0 Kongeserien in under 55 hours because this is the kind of football experience fans were asking for.

“This is a living project, and we want supporters to play it, debate the ratings, tell us who is missing and help us fine-tune the database as we add even more historical teams and Easter eggs.”

Kongebonus said it plans to expand the database based on community feedback, including requests for missing players, rating adjustments and additional historical teams.
