Rematch – Final Beta Release Set for May 28-31!

Alright, buckle up, folks, ’cause here’s the lowdown on this new gig going on. So, Xbox Insiders (you know who you are) who have an Xbox Series X|S or a Windows PC can jump into this thing called the Rematch – Final Beta. Kicks off today, May 28. And hey, it’s kinda exclusive, so you might wanna hustle if you’re planning to snag a spot. Spaces are like, super limited, like a yard sale with only one PS5.

So, what’s Rematch all about? It’s football but not the kind grandpa watches. Think third-person view where you’re basically in the thick of it. Tackle, dribble, aim, shoot—every single move is on you. No player stats, just your raw skill and, well, how well your team gels. It’s got this mash-up of serious football vibes with an arcade-style twist. Fast games that don’t drag on like those meetings that could have been emails. It’s designed for online multiplayer, totally competitive with seasons or something. Easy to learn but mastering it? Yeah, good luck.

Oh, and if you’re curious (like whether pineapple belongs on pizza), check out the official Rematch website—or not. Up to you, no pressure.

Now, there’s this rad image of the game that pops up around here—it’s some visual eye candy. Something about wet cardboard, right?

Important tidbit: You got from Wednesday, May 28 at 5 AM PT to Saturday, May 31 at the same time to get in on the action. Mark your calendars—unless you don’t have one, then maybe scribble it on a napkin or something.

Wanna dive in? Fire up your Xbox Series X|S or trusty Windows PC. You gotta open up that Xbox Insider Hub app (or hunt it down in the Store if it’s playing hide-and-seek). Go to Previews > Rematch Beta, tap Join, and keep your fingers crossed as it registers. Then it’s off to the Store to grab the REMATCH – Closed Beta. Easy peasy. But the slots disappear faster than cookies at a bake sale, so there’s that.

And oh, this beta’s exclusive to the Xbox and PC crowd—no sardines or bananas allowed.

Ran into a hiccup? Reporting issues is as easy as pie. Hold the home button on your controller, tap ‘Report a problem,’ select Games, then Rematch, and spill the deets. The back-end folks love dissecting these tidbits.

Need more or feeling social? Hit up @XboxInsider on X/Twitter. And maybe hang out with the cool cats on the Xbox Insider SubReddit. They don’t bite—or so I’ve been told.
