Bringing to fans a game that rewards skill and expression, Rematch is seen as the ideal pick for those who have either stepped away from or are looking for an alternative to the divisive EA FC 25. But that also caused many fans to wonder. After all, is Rematch better than EA FC? Here are our thoughts.
Rematch Vs EA FC 25: Biggest Differences And Strengths
Before we start, we must acknowledge that even if both are soccer games, Rematch is a completely different beast when compared to FC. What do we mean by that? Well, Rematch is a mainly online title that allows you to take the field in 3v3, 4v4, and 5v5 high-paced arcade matches, all while adding upon the Rocket League formula via a higher degree of ball control and shooting freedom.
Although its unconventional control schemes might demand a little getting used for those who have already developed muscle memory after years of sports titles, the game also manages to nail the exciting feelings of going into a pitch with your friends and just having fun, something I believe very few franchises or modes has been able to replicate in years.
But outside of Pro Clubs and Rush, that’s exactly what causes any comparison between the title and EA FC 25 to be tricky, as the latter’s simulation focus and realistic approach still make for the best package for those looking to feel like or embody their favorite pros. If you are not looking to engage online, the game’s plethora of single-player content also makes it the ideal pick and the perfect foil for Rematch‘s experience.
Which Is Better, Rematch Or EA FC?
As you could see, EA FC 25 and Rematch represent two distinct facets of the genre and have their own strengths, with the former still being the best pick when looking for realism and single-player content, while the latter is perfect for those looking for a high-paced experience that relies on skill above all else. Keep in mind, however, that Rematch does not support crossplay at the time of writing, so make sure you and your squad pick the right platform.
If you want to get a feel for yourself, Rematch and the next-gen version of EA FC 25 can be played on PS5, Series S/X, and PC. Both games are also part of the Game Pass catalog. Although the latter will demand an upgrade to its Ultimate version.
