About this game

Rugby Nations 26 puts you at the heart of the action. Build your team and take on the best teams from around the world. Play through every ruck, maul, and bitterly contested try as you rise through the ranks and carve out your place among Rugby Legends.

CORE GAMEPLAY
Jackaling and bump-offs keep the momentum of the match flowing, while charge down kicks and calling mark give you greater control of the defensive side of the sport. Adaptive intercepts add more risk to those clutch plays but make it all the more rewarding to steal possession of the ball in this highly immersive rugby simulator.

CLUB MODE 2.0
Choose your team's country of origin and take on local teams all the way up to national Rugby Legends. Move up the ladder, gain promotion to challenging higher leagues, and battle it out in the playoffs to become champions. Take part in inter-season tournaments and face teams from around the world.

KIT DESIGNER
A complete overhaul to the kit designer allows you to give your team their own unique identity. Mix and match all new designs, selecting individual colours for every aspect of your kit from collar to boot. Design a kit your team can wear with pride as you score epic tries and celebrate your victories on the pitch.

MATCH PRESENTATION
Match commentary makes each game feel like a moment in Rugby Union history, highlighting all your masterful plays during gameplay. Listen as the crowd goes wild, filling the stadium with an atmosphere never felt before on mobile. Animated Scoreboards respond to your epic plays, pre-match sequences show off your team roster, and end-of-match statistics spotlight your top players. All that, along with an expanded portfolio of celebration and gameplay match cutscenes, further immerses you in the action.

IMPROVED REALISM
Varied weather and time of day add more possibilities to each match as you play from dawn through dusk during scattered showers, intense snow or foggy conditions. New stadium surroundings and a greater variety of players help breathe new life into each match, making each match feel different, with enhanced grass rendering coating the pitch with a fresh layer of detail, bringing the Rugby simulation to life like never before.

The game is fun and improving each time. The in-game purchases are just really expensive. especially when your currency is not the dollar. Decrease your prices by 25% and you will see the return in sales, plus a lot more. I have to pay R50 to play 24hrs? Really? I just wait. If you charged me R20 then I would have bought several daily passes by now. The R186 per week is ludicrous also. Make it possible for ordinary people to purchase if you want to increase sales. Game is good. The Pricing, not.

the game is good and all I really enjoys playing it but make it more realistic like make it a game where you can against other players and like player career mode where you can create your own player club career mode is just not enough because I want to make my player a pro and all..and make give the teams real names where they player for and and players real names don't just give it in the internationals teams..and make cut scene like where the players warm-up and stuff please.

Good solid mobile rugby game. I think there is definitely room for improvement though. The matches aren't nearly long enough and the AI refuses easy points in kickable positions when available. Too many CPU kicks going wide as well. AI doesn't go wide often enough, has a habit of stopping dead and often refuses to take contact when it probably should. Would love to build a bench with whatever players I choose too.
