Xbox Game Pass Welcomes Slocap's 'Rematch' as a Day-One Title Alongside
2025-06-19 19:41:06Microsoft's subscription gaming service, Xbox Game Pass, continues to expand its impressive library with the day-one addition of Slocap's innovative sports title Rematch. This highly anticipated game joins a stellar lineup of new releases coming to the platform throughout June 2025.
Xbox Game Pass, Microsoft's answer to Sony's PlayStation Plus, offers subscribers access to hundreds of games across multiple subscription tiers. The service provides numerous benefits including online multiplayer capabilities, exclusive discounts, and for PC and Ultimate tier members, the privilege of playing select titles immediately upon release.
The June 2025 additions to Xbox Game Pass have already begun with significant titles:
- Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition and its sequel (June 1)
- 11 Big Studios' critically acclaimed sci-fi survival game The Alters (June 13)
- Two day-one releases on June 17: FBC: Firebreak set in the Control universe and Lost in Random: The Eternal Die
The spotlight now turns to Rematch, launching June 19. This unique sports game blends elements of real-world soccer with the high-octane vehicular action of Rocket League. Slocap, known for their work on Sifu and Absolver, has crafted a third-person competitive experience that emphasizes pure skill over player statistics, focusing on reaction time, precision, and team coordination.
Rematch features four distinct multiplayer modes (3v3, 4v4, 5v5, and ranked 5v5) set in virtual reality arenas that eliminate traditional soccer interruptions like fouls and offsides. The developers have also announced plans for seasonal content updates that will introduce new cosmetics and gameplay variations.
