Redesigning football? How Rematch reimagines the sport as utopian 'painterly and impressionistic' cartoon chaos

Rematch interview; screens and art for a cartoon football game.

Arcade football game Rematch feels like its coming at just the right time. Given fan frustration – and logo grumbles – over EA FC (formerly known as FIFA), not just one of the biggest games but also the football game that all with a love for the beautiful game gravitate towards, the time feels ripe for alternatives.

Rematch feels like that contender, which rather than trying to simulate real world clubs and players, cares more about putting you on the pitch as a single football player. In other words it feels more like playing an actual team sport, or indeed a team-based online multiplayer games like Rocket League or Overwatch.
