Rugby 15 is a rugby union video game developed by HB Studios[1] and published by Big Ben Interactive on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PlayStation Vita and PC. Thus far, the game has received overwhelmingly negative reviews.

Details

No rugby union game has been produced for two years since Rugby Challenge 2, which was developed by Sidhe and published by Home Entertainment Suppliers. HB Studios have not developed a rugby union game since Rugby World Cup 2011, which was published by 505 Games. HB Studios have however announced the intention to start releasing an annual rugby game.[1]

Modes

It will be possible to play an individual match with up to 4 local controllers, play in any of the licensed competitions or a custom created competition.[2] The game does not feature a player and team customisation mode or a career mode. No online mode will exist in the game as the developers want to focus on the basics of the game to improve for future editions, which may include an online mode.[1]

Features

The weather will play a large part in gameplay with the wind affecting the projection of the ball and rain causing the pitch to deform and players to get muddy.[2]

Teams and Stadiums

The game features licences for all clubs in the Top 14, Pro D2, Aviva Premiership and Pro12. There is one in-game stadium that is used for every team.

Trailer

A teaser trailer was released on 22 August 2014.[3]
