What a pivot.
Rematch was today announced at The Game Awards, a 5v5 football game from the developer of Sifu.
You read that right.
“Set in vibrant virtual reality arenas, the gameplay flows with no fouls and no offsides, and the action never stops,” reads a press release. “Players control only one player on the team in an immersive third person perspective, swapping roles as the situation evolves: from striker to defender, down to a uniquely designed goalkeeper position featuring specific abilities. Each match is an intense showdown, in which players need both split-second reactions and tactical teamplay to prevail.”
“Football is a beautiful game, a precise choreography of bodies in movement. At its core, this game is all about being in the right place, at the right time, and in the right dynamic. And then of course, executing perfectly,” developer Sloclap said.
“With Rematch, we’re trying to capture this essence of football and condense it in short, fast-paced 5v5 matches. We felt it was time for a new perspective on this beautiful game: closer to the pitch, closer to the players.”
Expect Rematch in 2025 on Windows PC, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PS5.
