How to play Rematch offline

Rematch made a huge splash with its multiple beta runs, and after concluding the final test, it is set to release very soon. While the game’s core mechanics are based on an online five-vs-five setting, you might be wondering if you can practice the game offline to improve your skills. If you’re wondering, don’t worry, we have you covered.

Here’s everything you need to know about whether Rematch can be played offline and how.

No, unfortunately, you cannot play Rematch offline. You will require a stable internet connection to even launch the game, owing to the Easy Anti-Cheat engine. The anti-cheat engine, which is also used in several other multiplayer titles such as Apex Legends, Fortnite, Fall Guys, and many more, prevents you from encountering hackers and cheaters in your online matches and is a crucial part of the game.

However, in case you do have a connection but are facing troubles with it that are preventing you from having a good experience in multiplayer matches, there is a workaround to enjoy the in-game mechanics, but at a cost.

How to play Rematch without a stable internet connection

Although you cannot play Rematch without connecting to the server, there is an option in case you want to enjoy the game’s mechanics but are not confident about queueing into an online match due to server fluctuations, high ping, or any other network-related trouble.

You can simply jump into the freeplay mode to polish up your skills in the virtual arena. However, the cost you have to pay is that you will have to do it all by yourself, as that is the only way to enjoy the mechanics while facing network issues.
