After various beta periods, Rematch is finally releasing on June 19, 2025. Since the game is on the horizon, it is a great time to learn all of the controls for it. Unlike traditional football games such as EA Sports FC and eFootball, Rematch ditches the simulation-heavy approach to lean more toward an arcadey gameplay style. In addition to that, Sloclap’s new sports title also allows players to control only one player instead of an entire team.

So, the controls are quite different from the football games people are familiar with. With that said, here are all the Rematch controls for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation.

Rematch’s beta is officially closed, and since players can only see the controls while within the game, many have unfortunately missed the opportunity to learn about them. So, to help you out, we have listed the controls of the game for PC, Xbox, and PlayStation below. You can memorize the controls and understand how they work. That way, you won’t have to pause your matches to look at them, which could cost your team a crucial goal.

PC is not the recommended way of playing Rematch.
