Club Football 2005 is a football (soccer) simulation game developed and published by Codemasters. Released in 2004, the Xbox version is part of a series where each release focuses on a specific football club. The Arsenal edition features official kits, stadiums, and player likenesses related to the club.
The game includes various modes such as domestic leagues, European tournaments, custom matches, and a career mode that allows players to create and develop their own footballer. New skill moves like dummies, close control, and fakes were introduced, alongside a refined control system aimed at improving responsiveness.
The Xbox version received mixed reviews. Critics noted the club-specific content but pointed out that the gameplay lacked the depth and realism compared to other football titles of the time.
