Comments on Rugby Nations 26 for Android

★★★★★ Jayden Beetge · Aug 27, 2026
Love the game, but we need multiplayer to play against our friends and games need to be longer
★★★★★ Jehan Abrahams · Aug 24, 2026
Can the game be design with the rugby rivalry also it would buy great to play in rivalry also in the game
★★★★☆ Lenon Mleya · Aug 27, 2026
The game is good and vibe is great, but you have to Add Goose step, Side Step, Dumby Passes and Hand off, Add Multiplayer games both online and offline, so people can connect using two phones while offline and change player card coding system and add Black card e.g. Blue Card (30 - 33)Academy Grey Card (33 - 35)Common Bronze Card (40 - 50) Silver Card (60 - 70) Gold Card (80 - 90) Purple Card (100 - 110)Special Agent Player Black Card (120 - 130)Legendary player
★☆☆☆☆ Cyril Okine · Aug 10, 2026
This game sucks don't buy it's, so trash can't even win a world cup game because the game rigs you to not be able to win
★☆☆☆☆ Paciente, Ricardo Jr. C. · Aug 11, 2026
Stpd P2W, when it's on the finals the OVR is only 80, but they play like 100+OVR already so u won't get rewards. Waste of time for this type of Devs.
★★☆☆☆ Oliver Richardson Braun · Aug 26, 2026
I love rugby, I love playing it and watching, but this game is very poor it does things that are quite unrealistic like if I put 5 players into an apposing ruck, but they have no players I still loose the ball and how the AI can kick the ball so high from a conversion whereas a player who is playing on their phone like me can kick nowhere near as high. Also, the graphics are so bad how do other games like FC mobile have so much better graphics and are so much smoother. Could be 5⭐ like fc mobile 5⭐
