Sloclap, known for its work on games like Absolver and Sifu, is about to make a significant turn with the announcement of its upcoming title: Rematch, an online multiplayer football game that promises to revolutionize the way the king of sports is played. Scheduled for an official release on June 19, 2025, players who opt for the Pro and Elite versions will be able to access the game three days earlier, on June 16. The final beta of Rematch will begin on May 28, 2025, and will be available until May 31, allowing a wide audience to experience the game before its official launch.
A game that could very well compete with FIFA
Rematch offers an arcade soccer experience without the usual restrictions, such as fixed positions or detailed statistics. In this game, players control a single character in a five-on-five format, which means that skill and creativity will be crucial to achieving victory. The concepts of fouls and offside will be eliminated, promising smooth and fast gameplay.
The game will be available on Steam and the Xbox store, with access for Xbox Game Pass subscribers from day one. With a base cost of €24.99 for the standard edition, players will also be able to purchase enhanced versions for €34.99 and €44.99, which include early access and additional content. The recommended specifications require an RTX 3050 graphics card and an Intel Core i5-11600k processor, making the title accessible to a wide range of players.
Although Sloclap is known for its focus on combat, Rematch focuses on football simulation and will use a battle system called Captain’s Pass”which includes seasonal content. Many details about this system are still unknown, leading to some speculation about its content and costs. With this new direction, Rematch could set a new standard for online football games.
