00:00Hello, everyone.
00:07Time for another update on Rugby 25's Early Access release.
00:12We've been really happy to see the enjoyment a number of you have been having since the
00:16release of online.
00:17We'll be looking to expand the online features in future updates, including the introduction
00:23of custom matches and invite matches.
00:26We recently released the Early Access Interim update to include Quick Match Online.
00:31Along with this, we've included a number of the gameplay updates that would have otherwise
00:35been scheduled for this update.
00:37We've adjusted more animations to improve the look and feel of tackles, tries, and more.
00:43This remains an ongoing process as we continue to refine gameplay.
00:49A few related changes you'll notice are options such as the dynamic slider, adjusting the
00:53field of view of the gameplay camera, improved audio and commentary, and improved lighting.
01:00We've also been implementing a number of improved player and team visuals as we get closer to
01:04finalising those aspects.
01:07We're experimenting with some ideas to adjust rucks and scrums for more competitiveness,
01:11as well as player positioning during a move.
01:13We hope to have more on these in future updates.
01:18The positioning of players has been improved in this update.
01:22Forwards will form pods at rucks, which you can pass to with the left and right triggers,
01:28or pass down the back line with the left and right bumbles.
01:33You'll find players have improved positions across the board, especially at scrums and
01:37walls.
01:42The final major element of the Rugby Academy to be added is the Stadium Creator.
01:49Add anything from a small rectangular field to a huge stadium, even round ones, letting
01:55you make your own custom home grounds for your created teams.
02:01Background scenery and objects can help build the environment around your stadium.
02:06When Rugby 25 is fully released, we'll have over 40 officially licensed stadiums from
02:11all over the world.
02:15But where we haven't got your favourite stadium, we hope you can enjoy using the Stadium Creator.
02:19With Rugby 25, our goal has always been to create a game representing the vast world
02:31of rugby.
02:32Hundreds of teams from all over the globe represent it.
02:35To ensure a world of rugby fans can enjoy the game, we're adding in support for a number
02:40of languages in the UI.
02:41French, Italian, German, Spanish, Korean and Japanese.
02:47In addition, commentary is available in French.
03:06We hope rugby fans from around the world can now check out the Early Access release and
03:10let us know what they think.
03:11For those who haven't played in a while, we'd love you to check back in to the latest improvements
03:16and please share your thoughts with the team.
03:18As always, keep up with everything Rugby 25.
