Rematch, the online multiplayer football game from the makers of Sifu and Absolver, is due for release in June, but before then, you'll get a chance to check it out with an open beta test.

The latest beta will involve consoles for the first time, including PS5 of course. The open beta takes place from 28th May to 31st May, starting and ending at 1pm BST / 5am PDT / 8am EDT on those respective dates.

To take part, you can sign up for a beta invitation via the official website, but developer Sloclap will be opening up access to everyone starting 29th May.

In order to play the beta, you will need an active PS Plus subscription. Cross-play won't feature in the beta, but it will be supported in the final game.

To recap, Rematch is a 5v5 football/soccer game in which 10 players fill each individual position on the pitch. It's a sort of Rocket League-ification of the real sport; short match times, no fouls or referee, an emphasis on teamwork, and arenas that allow you to bounce the ball off walls.

It's a big pivot from Sloclap's combat-focused titles, but Rematch seems to retain the studio's snappy movement and animation, and it appears to have a similarly high skill ceiling too.

We're curious to give the game a try with the open beta next week, but what about you? Let us know in the comments section below.
