Sloclap's Rematch is a breath of fresh air for all futsal enthusiasts worldwide. The new arena-based football game excels in its own genre with little flaws here and there.

There’s a certain level of animosity that comes at the mere mention of sports games. They’ll often summon a shudder of disdain, followed by a prompted lashing of venom from the ‘gamers’. And it’s not just down to how the genre became a getaway from gambling addictions and mass motivation.

REMATCH is Sloclap's latest entry in the sports genre, and they've done a wonderful job despite never releasing a game of such nature before. Forget about pay-to-win, forget about player stats... REMATCH is about skill, and its gameplay focus is everything that is good about it.

When I was a kid, I played a lot of soccer (I would like to apologize to everyone else in the world; I am, regrettably, American). I was on a team, and we were good. Make the local paper good, mind; we weren’t going to go pro or anything, but I have very good memories of those years. I fell off of soccer eventually (something I deeply regret), but I never lost that love of the game. There’s something about the energy of it, the joy. The thwack of the ball, the feeling of outmaneuvering a defender for the perfect chance, the pass slipped beautifully between another guy’s legends, reading the sh...

Rematch is a great arcade sports title that’s sure to win over both hardcore and casual fans. With tight controls and excellent customization options, the title’s fun and easy to pick up.

If you dig arcade soccer and are tired of gasoline fumes, you’ll have a great time with Rematch.

The FC series, formerly known as FIFA, has reigned supreme in the realm of soccer/futbol video games for years now, with competitors moving to free-to-play or dying off entirely. Coming from an unlikely source, Sifu and Absolver developer Sloclap has entered the tournament with a new online-only third-person soccer game, Rematch.

From the same brilliant minds behind the absolutely amazing Sifu, comes Rematch, a brand new (and absolutely welcome) take on virtual football. Unlike your more traditional squad-based games like EA FC, eFootball or even the more recent UFL, Rematch has you playing as a single character in a team, in an over-the-shoulder perspective, in a more arcadey, but still skill-based environment. Think of it as if Rocket League, the game all about cars that play football, was actually about people play...

Limited launch content aside, Sloclap's mechanical deviations from the status quo successfully distill the beautiful game's essence.

If you're in the mood for some solid multiplayer football, REMATCH is certainly a good effort that you'll be happy to attempt to master thanks to intricate controls, and the bite-sized sessions that throw the rule book away for the sake of fluidity and fun.

A clever and hugely enjoyable online team game, even at this early stage in its career -although it feels more like a rival to Rocket League than EA Sports FC.

Rematch takes a refreshing, skill-based approach to football games that can be just as frustrating as it is thrilling
