Is Rematch Elite Edition worth buying?

Rematch is an upcoming PvP arcade title from Sloclap that will be releasing globally on June 19, 2025. It is currently in its beta playtest phase, and those interested can try it out. Moreover, the game is also out for pre-orders now, and players who want more than simply the base game at launch can go for the Pro or the Elite Editions. The Pro Edition is priced at $29.99, whereas the Elite Edition costs $49.99. But is it really worth getting the latter?

Well, the answer would depend on the player. The concept of Rematch revolves around a 5v5 football game. However, it is not a typical football video game like FIFA or Pro Evolution Soccer but rather somewhat of an arcade title. So, if you are a hardcore football fan, Rematch might feel a little disappointing if you're expecting realistic football gameplay from it. This is precisely why the Elite Edition might not be a great pick if you are a die-hard sports fan. However, if you love playing arcade-style sports games, the Elite Edition of Rematch can be an excellent option.

Again, if you are new to arcade games, you will be better off with the Pro Edition only. The developers at Sloclap are known for producing some of the most distinctive video games, like Sifu. However, the unique angle that they've tried with Rematch might not satisfy everyone.

That said, let's take a look at the contents of the Elite Edition of Rematch.
