Sifu Creators Dive into Soccer with New Game Reveal
Sloclap, the developers of the martial arts action game Sifu, have announced an exciting new project. Revealed during The Game Awards 2024, their upcoming game, Rematch, takes a fresh approach to football. Set to release in summer 2025 on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, this multiplayer online game promises a unique twist on the traditional football experience.
Rematch: A New Football Adventure
Sloclap, a Paris-based studio, has crafted a fast-paced 5v5 match experience. The game uses a third-person camera, enhancing the immersive gameplay. Forget about penalties, offsides, or out-of-bounds; Rematch takes place in virtual cage arenas where the action never stops.
Gameplay Mechanics
Players control a single footballer, switching roles from striker to defender, and even goalkeeper. Mastering shooting, aiming, and timing is crucial. Teamwork is essential, as holding the ball too long can lead to losing possession.
- Fast-paced 5v5 matches
- Third-person perspective
- No penalties or offsides
- Role-switching between players
Inspiration and Development
Inspired by games like Rocket League and Overwatch, Rematch focuses on team play and precision. Unlike Rocket League's car-ball interactions, Rematch emphasizes strategic passing and shooting.
Sloclap spent three years developing this game, overcoming numerous challenges. Although the price is yet to be announced, Rematch will be a premium title, not free-to-play.
