REMATCH Sees Player Declines as Crossplay and Stability Remain Out of Reach

Sloclap says crossplay development is on track with final stabilization efforts underway

Overview

  • Rematch has lost a significant portion of its active players and seen community sentiment drop since its June launch.
  • The lack of cross-platform play has splintered the user base and remains the community’s most frequent complaint.
  • In its new bi-weekly “mini dev update” series, Sloclap reports steady crossplay progress and says it is prioritizing final stabilization alongside social features.
  • Players continue to experience movement exploits, ball desynchronization, collision glitches and regional server instability, particularly in South America.
  • Early rollout of paid premium cosmetics and Ronaldinho-themed partnerships during Season 0 has fueled criticism that microtransactions preceded essential feature polish.
