Ahead of its June release, Slowclap, the studio behind indie hit Sifu, is hosting a public open beta for their upcoming online action football game, Rematch. 

It may not be the traditional type of game we are used to seeing from Slowclap, but trust me, once you’ve tried it, you’ll understand why this might just be one of 2025’s biggest hits.

Slowclap Brings Their Exciting Approach to Gameplay to the World of Football

Fans of Football (Soccer in America) might want to keep a close eye on Rematch, a new IP developed by the creators of Absolver and Sifu. While many were hoping to see Slowclap do a follow-up to Sifu, they instead decided to go in a completely different direction, creating an online competitive sports game this time. As far out there as that may sound for them, once you actually try the game out for yourself, you’ll come to understand that this isn’t just like every other sports game out there, as Slowclap unique spin on movement and essentially combat adds a level of depth that sports game have needed for a long time. In a lot of ways, it’s like Rocket League, with all the wackiness and crazy maneuvers you can pull off, mixed in with a touch of kung fu. 

And there’s some great news for PC gamers, as an open beta is now available for everyone! That means you can see what all the fuss is about for yourself! Trust me (I’ll have my full preview up later); it’s loads of fun. The open beta is available on Steam and will only be live for this weekend (April 18-19).
