Experience all aspects of modern rugby in Rugby 20! With a wide range of tactics options, attacking pods and set plays, rugby fans will find all the fine points of the sport in this new simulation-focused game. Designed to offer the deepest tactical gameplay ever for this sport, Rugby 20 introduces an innovative set-play system and the option to adapt the game strategy during the match. Dictate play and control the game by defining the position and behaviour of your players, as well as the sequences you want to use.

Whether attacking or defending, your choices will make all the difference. Long passes, side-steps, grubber kicks and tackling with two players will all help you gain the upper hand during the match. Timing and accuracy will be your greatest strengths as you demonstrate your skills and try to turn the game in your favor.
