Rugby Challenge 4 (Switch) (Nintendo Switch)

Product Information

NEW! Side-line camera angle and drop goal camera allowing for closer simulation to a real broadcast view.

The AI is still severely lagging in some areas. Pretty much all teams you come up against will throw the ball about and offload like no one's business! Which makes for a pretty messy midfield at times.Scrums appear to be very much the same as they have been in previous instalments of the game. Personally, it seems like a lot of work would be needed to create a new way for this to be done. We feel this is a very clunky way to play out one of the key resets in rugby, however. A similar story to scrums, with no change being made to running gameplay. The developers claim that the positioning of players has been improved, yet we will see players running aimlessly to the side during gameplay. The focus for Rugby Challenge 4 has been to build on and improve the gameplay of our previous Rugby games, while retaining its essence with the use of the original signature animations -now Spectacularly enhanced by the Unreal Engine.

It made computer game history in theAmigacommunity when it received a review score of 2% in the UK magazine Amiga Power As well as all this, there’s a collection of training minigames too, so you can work out your strategy ahead of a big game.On the licencing front, strangely enough the Sunwolves, Jaguares and Waratahs are all unlicenced this year. Not sure why, as I was under the assumption that all Super Rugby was licenced. International and local competitions – including the all new Men’s 7s Rugby, Women’s 7s Rugby, Premiership Rugby, Super Rugby and Currie Cup – or even create your own! Graphically it's a slight step up from RC3. Certainly in terms of player likenesses, with a significant increase in player faces for the licenced teams. A brand new rugby game has just been released today. We felt it was necessary here at Rugby Onslaught to give an honest review of the game after giving it a go. This is an excellent game and in my opinion, probably still the bestrugby game out there. Sure the graphics ain’t good but it is from 1997. It is very playable and has a good selection of teams the best of which are naturally New Zealand.
