Rematch September 2025 Update Brings Crossplay, New Rewards & Key Fixes

After a short two-day delay, Rematch has officially rolled out its third major update (Patch 1.200.300), delivering crossplay, new battle pass tiers, and much-requested gameplay improvements. Since its June launch, Sloclap’s skill-based soccer experience has been praised for its fresh third-person perspective and emphasis on precision over arcade-style ball control. Now, this latest patch adds several community-requested features while also addressing lingering issues.

🚀 Major Additions

• Crossplay is now live across Xbox, PlayStation, and PC, letting players team up across platforms.⚠️ Note: Sloclap confirmed that cross-progression is not planned.
• Player Reporting has been introduced, giving fans a tool to flag disruptive teammates or opponents.
• Endgame Battle Pass Rewards: Five new tiers are now available, with the final tier costing 150 tokens — designed for the most dedicated players.

⚙️ Gameplay Improvements

This update focuses heavily on polishing Rematch’s mechanics, especially around its Extra Effort boost system:

• Fixed inconsistencies with ball control and animations when using Extra Effort.
• Corrected goalkeeper invulnerability bugs after dives and deflects.
• Added a new camera lock option for controllers, mirroring a feature previously exclusive to mouse and keyboard.
• Improved tackling responsiveness and reduced camera shake during steals.
• Addressed multiple issues with goalkeeper actions, ball rollbacks, and possession desyncs.

🎮 Mouse & Keyboard Updates

Sloclap expanded input customization for PC players:

• Tap Direction Options: Joystick emulation, directional aiming (“WASD aiming”), or crosshair-only aiming.
• New sensitivity sliders for smoother correction.

🛠 Interface & Quality of Life

• Accessibility: Added colorblind support and new sensitivity settings.
• Crosshair Customization: Size and color can now be adjusted.
• Store & Menus: Refreshed visuals, optimized loading times, and clearer ownership indicators for bundles.
• Fixed bugs with the social panel, remapping, and UI states.

🎨 Visual & Audio Updates

• Improved stadium performance, lighting, shadows, and fabric colors.
• Fixed issues with crowd animations, textures, and character hair outlines.
• Audio mix has been updated for clearer gameplay sounds, with fixes for missing countdowns and post-match menus.

⚠️ Known Issues (Still Under Review)

Despite the progress, some problems persist:

• Occasional ball desyncs and incorrect movement during transitions.
• Goalkeeper inconsistencies, such as missing catches or losing possession when canceling Extra Effort.
• Custom Match lobby bugs with multiple players joining simultaneously.
• Tap Aiming Mode currently only localized in English.
• AI misbehavior in certain tutorials and workshops.

📅 What’s Next?

Sloclap is already preparing Patch #4 for mid-September, which is expected to:
