Sloclap Launches New Soccer Title Rematch Without Crossplay
Sloclap, the renowned developer behind hit games like Sifu and Absolver, has recently launched its latest title, Rematch. The arcade-style soccer game, designed for online team-based matches, is now available on PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X. However, the game has received some criticism for launching without crossplay capabilities, which has limited players to their own platforms.
The 5v5 online multiplayer arcade soccer game allows players to compete from a third-person perspective. Despite the lack of crossplay at launch, the game has already shown promise within its player base.
Developer Apologizes for Lack of Crossplay
Sloclap has issued an update addressing the absence of crossplay in Rematch, apologizing to fans for the oversight. The studio acknowledges that they should have informed players in advance about the limitation and states that they are actively working on implementing crossplay in the future.
While the recent beta of Rematch was highly popular, attracting 1.9 million players, the absence of crossplay has been a disappointment to many fans.
Future Plans for Rematch
Despite the initial setback, Sloclap developers have outlined their plans for Rematch, promising improvements and updates to enhance the gameplay experience. The studio aims to introduce crossplay functionality and other features to make the game more inclusive and appealing to a wider audience.
Rematch offers a unique take on the soccer genre, blending arcade-style gameplay with online multiplayer matches. With the developer’s commitment to addressing player feedback and enhancing the game’s features, Rematch is poised to grow in popularity and attract a dedicated community of players.
