Beijing Time – September 24, 2026: Today, Sloclap officially launches Season 5 of Kick Off! REMATCH, kicking off a major collaboration with the hit soccer TV anime Blue Lock. Running from September 24 to October 23, this season brings a new game mode, a free Event Pass, exclusive cosmetic rewards, a special edition for new players, and premium character bundles inspired by the anime's most iconic and popular players.
New Limited-Time Mode: Aura Striker
At the heart of Season 5 is "Aura Striker," a new 3v3 game mode inspired by Blue Lock's endless pursuit of evolution.
As the match progresses, players can activate their "Aura" to temporarily enhance their abilities, boosting movement speed and shot power. Everyone starts on equal footing in each match, and only those who can quickly adapt to the pace, seize momentum, and make the most of every opportunity will stand out.
Thanks to the addition of the Holo-Auto Goalkeeper system, players can focus entirely on offense. The "Aura Striker" mode delivers a faster-paced, more explosive match experience, where every change of possession can create a highlight moment.
Generous Rewards for Every Player
Every player can step onto the pitch and immediately claim a free welcome pack containing exclusive Blue Lock-themed cosmetic rewards.
Throughout the event, players can earn rewards in the free exclusive Event Pass by completing challenges in Aura Striker, Matchmaking, and Ranked modes. Level up the pass to unlock Blue Lock-themed exclusive cosmetics, including player cards, themed VR headsets, exclusive soccer balls, and more seasonal bonus rewards.
Step into the World of Blue Lock
Players looking to fully experience this collaboration can customize their athletes by purchasing four premium cosmetic bundles inspired by Blue Lock's most popular characters:
• Yoichi Isagi
• Meguru Bachira
• Seishiro Nagi
• Rin Itoshi
Each premium bundle includes a complete character-themed skin set, exclusive celebration animations, and an exclusive player card, allowing players to bring their favorite Blue Lock characters onto the pitch.
During the event, multi-character bundles will also be available, providing the most cost-effective option for players looking to collect the full set of cosmetics.
More Ways to Join
Season 5 offers multiple ways to experience this collaboration.
New players can jump straight in by purchasing the "Kick Off! REMATCH x Blue Lock" Collaboration Edition, which includes the base game and exclusive Blue Lock cosmetics. Returning players can purchase the standalone "Blue Lock Training Pack," while hardcore fans can expand their collections by acquiring various premium character bundles available in-game during the event.
