REMATCH x Blue Lock: Isagi and Bachira Revealed in Trailer

Sloclap has finally dropped the news its community had been demanding since the launch of REMATCH: a teaser confirming the arrival of Blue Lock on the pitch (no, not the bread...). The video only lasts a few seconds, but it clearly gets the message across: the manga's egoists are coming to the game.

The trailer offers a fleeting glimpse of the silhouettes of Yoichi Isagi, Meguru Bachira, Seishiro Nagi and Rin Itoshi, animated with the franchise's signature visual style rather than REMATCH's usual realistic rendering. No detailed gameplay here, that will be for a future trailer dedicated to presenting the collab - this video clearly plays the pure teasing card, in the style of a cast announcement before the actual launch trailer.

A contrast with the game's DNA

Until now, REMATCH had built its identity on a street and physical approach to football, far removed from the shonen aesthetic. Seeing Isagi and company injected into this universe therefore marks a real visual shift, even if only a one-off, for Sloclap's game. The studio embraces the irony: in an anime centered on the individual selfishness of strikers, creative director Pierre Tarno's message reminds us that on the pitch of REMATCH, even the greatest egoists will have to rely on their teammates.

The collaboration is set to begin on September 24 - the precise details (content, skins, modes) will be covered in a future launch trailer. For now, this teaser mainly serves to build hype ahead of the full announcement.
