If you have never played Sifu by Sloclap, then the first thing you need to know about a Sloclap game is that there is going to be a learning curve. We are here to help you with that learning curve as you start your football journey in Rematch.
Our Rematch beginner’s guide is here to help walk you through all the controls you will learn through playing the prologue mission. If you are like me, you will need this guide to help refresh your memory on “how exactly do I smack the ball with my head again?”
It is important to remember that you can view controls at any time by pausing the game. We will go over basic controls as well as the more complex moves in the game.
We will go over all of this with the Controller mapping presets set to default. You can access these 3 settings in the Controls tab in the options menu if you choose to try a different layout.
The Basics
- LB/L1 to sprint
- RT/R2 to Shoot the ball
- LT/L2 Defensive Stance/Guard
- A/X to Dash
- Y/Triangle to Dive
- Use X/Square to tap the ball in the direction you aim your Left Joystick in. Press RB/R1 with X to tap it into the air.
- Tip: When passing, make sure to tap X/square in the direction of your teamate rather than pressing RT/R2.
- Tap in on your right joystick to call for the ball.
Defense
- Hold LT/L2 to Guard (make sure to aim at the ball)
- Hold LT/L2 to Guard the goal and Y to catch it
- Hold LT/L2 to Guard and then B/O to tackle
Offense
- B/square to tackle an enemy
- Hold sprint then press B/square to side tackle
- Press A/X to avoid tackles
- Press A/X and RB/R1 to Rainbow kick the ball in the air
- Sprint and press A/X to push the ball forward. (This will make you faster)
- As the ball comes towards you, push the joystick in the direction you want to hit the ball in to head butt it. Press A/X to tap it or X/Square to give it that extra push.
Advanced Moves
- Hold RB/R1 and press X/square to lobby the ball over your opponent.
- You can do an aimed kick by directing it with your left joystick during the charge of a kick. To see where you are aiming the ball, pay attention to the small dot on the center of the screen. See video below for a demonstration.
The final tip we have for you is to simply take advantage of the practice mode. Get very familiar with everything listed above. You will feel a lot more confident going in to a match online if you do so.
That was our How To Play Rematch Guide! We hope you found it helpful, and there are more guides for this game below.
