Rematch comes from the studio behind Sifu and, as people online keep mentioning, it isn’t Sifu 2. Will you be playing?
It’s easy to see why onlookers have somewhat hilariously labeled Rematch as Rocket League Without Cars. The visuals (futuristic and neon), the arenas, the slightly closed-off feeling as you can’t easily see what’s around you, it all has that Rocket League sauce. But ball control, as you might expect from an actual football game, is very different. Passing is angled to where you point with the left stick (when playing with a controller), shooting is precision-targeted to where the camera is pointed as if you are playing a third-person shooter, strength and loft can be decided, and you have some finer close-control that simply isn’t possible when hitting an oversize ball with a car. This is the closest a game has come to mimicking the feel of playing football, and I’m loving it.
