Big Ant describes the title as marking “the next generation of sports simulation, capturing the speed, strategy, and relentless intensity of Rugby League like never before.”

The game features fully licensed men’s and women’s teams, competitions, and stadiums from across the entire Rugby League world.

“From the expanded Career Mode to the Pro Team feature and advanced customisation tools, this game marks a new standard for Rugby League in interactive entertainment.”
