Season 5 of REMATCH is running and its Blue Lock collaboration is live until October 23. The crossover adds the 3 vs. 3 Aura Striker mode, a free event pass, a free welcome bundle, and premium character bundles for four Blue Lock players.
REMATCH is a 5-on-5 online soccer game with no fouls or offsides, played from a third-person perspective with each player controlling a single character. It is available on PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, and is included with Xbox and PC Game Pass. More than 6 million people have played it since its June 2025 release. Sloclap announced the Blue Lock crossover during Sony Interactive Entertainment's State of Play on September 3, with creative director Pierre Tarno saying the community had asked for Blue Lock characters since the game was first unveiled.
Season 5 began on September 24, and the collaboration runs until October 23. The centerpiece is Aura Striker, a 3 vs. 3 mode inspired by Blue Lock's theme of surpassing limits. Players activate an aura to temporarily boost movement speed and shot power, while an automatic hologram goalkeeper lets them focus on attacking. A free event pass offers collaboration cosmetics including player cards, a themed VR arena, and a Blue Lock ball, and a free welcome bundle with Blue Lock cosmetics goes to all players.
Premium bundles for Yoichi Isagi, Meguru Bachira, Seishiro Nagi, and Rin Itoshi each include a character skin, a celebration, and a player card. Sloclap told Automaton it gave the Blue Lock characters no special abilities, expressing their identities through cosmetics and animations instead. That keeps REMATCH's balance model, where all players have identical stats, intact even as the game borrows a franchise built on superhuman strikers.
