Mon Apr 21 08:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Sloclap’s “Rocket League with Feet” Game, Rematch, Scores Big in Open Beta
**London, UK** – Sloclap, the studio behind the critically acclaimed *Sifu*, is making waves with its upcoming 5v5 soccer game, *Rematch*. The game, described as “Rocket League but with feet,” has already surpassed 100,000 concurrent players during its open beta weekend on Steam, suggesting strong potential for its June 19, 2025 launch.
Unlike other soccer games, *Rematch* focuses on individual player control within a team, contrasting with the broader team management approach of titles like FIFA. Creative Director Pierre Tarno explained the difference as a “football player simulation” rather than a “football simulation.” While the control scheme differs from Rocket League’s physics-based gameplay, opting for more traditional sports game controls, the core concept of fast-paced, team-based soccer action clearly resonates with players.
The positive beta reception contrasts sharply with the unsuccessful beta launch of another game, suggesting *Rematch* is on track for success. The game will be priced at $30; a decision Tarno firmly defended, stating that creating a high-quality game is the key to commercial success rather than relying on free-to-play models. The game marks a successful transition for Sloclap from fighting games to the sports genre.
Those interested in experiencing the fast-paced action can still request access to the *Rematch* beta on the Steam page. With the overwhelmingly positive response, *Rematch* is poised to become a significant contender in the soccer game market.
