Rematch Final Beta: how to play, key dates and the arrival of Ronaldinho
Rematch, the new title from the creators of Sifu, is making waves with its bold take on football. After 2.8 million matches and 150,000 concurrent players during the previous closed beta, the final open beta will take place from May 28 to 31, just weeks ahead of the full release on June 19.
European players, especially in Spain, now have priority. It’s easier than ever to gain access: just register on the official Rematch website and you might receive a code.
Even better, anyone who joined previous betas will automatically be granted access without needing to sign up again.
However, if your thing is still more EA FC, enjoy it on WINNDER.
Platform availability and technical details
This beta will be available on Steam, Xbox, and PlayStation. On PC (Steam), the build will go live two hours before the official start on May 28.
For consoles:
- PlayStation requires an active PS Plus subscription.
- Xbox users with past access may face limitations due to certification issues, but Rematch will launch on Game Pass on June 19.
Ronaldinho joins Rematch as official ambassador
The beta comes with a legendary twist: Ronaldinho is now the official face of Rematch, alongside Ter Stegen and Kobbie Mainoo. But this is more than just a cameo — his iconic "joga bonito" style helped shape the gameplay itself.
In an emotional behind-the-scenes video, Ronaldinho celebrates how the game captures the joy and creativity that defined his career.
A competitive and street-style experience
Rematch doesn’t aim to be another simulation like FIFA. It’s a player-focused, rule-breaking experience, with online matches where you control just one character, set in hybrid urban-digital arenas.
This beta will include:
- All major game modes
- Free training mode
- Full character customization
- Exclusive cosmetics
- Private lobbies for friends
Although Ronaldinho and other stars won’t be playable in the beta, they will be available in the full game on June 19.
The digital football revolution
With no referees, no VAR, and no interruptions, Rematch is rewriting the rules. It’s a fast-paced, creativity-driven version of football that brings back the soul of the sport.
This beta is the final rehearsal before kickoff. And everything suggests that Rematch is 2025’s breakout hit.
