Rugby 22 gets a gameplay reveal trailer, mere weeks before the games release
With Rugby 22 launching on January 27 for PC and consoles, publisher Nacon has left things to the last minute, to reveal gameplay for the next entry in their long running sports series, check out the debut gameplay trailer below.
In the trailer, some of the newer additions to the gameplay were highlighted, but they are not all of them, just some of the bigger ones. Here they are in text form, if you wanted to understand what they meant:
Optimized in-game controls
Redesigned for an even more responsive and intuitive game experience, Rugby 22 integrates a new control system to play touches, rucks and mauls like a real oval ball professional!
An improvement of the AI behaviour
For an even more enjoyable simulation experience, the AI has been optimized by the EKO Software teams to adapt even better to the tactical choices of the players. Your players will position themselves and react in a more realistic way, while your opponents will make better choices.
A new, more complex difficulty mode
Finally, a new difficulty mode has been added to offer players a more solid opposition and a more difficult challenge once they have mastered the game.
Rugby 22 offers players all the elements that make up modern rugby: recognized official teams, tactical changes before and during the match, pod play options, passing after contact and combinations. All rugby fans will find the fundamentals of the sport in the game.
While the local leagues are not included in this game, the Wallabies do make up one of the national teams, here are all those teams, along with the three divisions and the teams from within, available to players.
Rugby 22 will be available on the 27th January 2022 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
