Soccer Game Rematch Adds A Nearly Naked Man For World Cup And Tobias Funke Fans
Soccer game Rematch has released a new cosmetic skin called “The Naturist” as part of its 2026 World Cup update. The nearly-naked character is inspired by Tobias Funke, the famous “nevernude” character from the TV series Arrested Development, and references the phenomenon of streakers at major sporting events.
The cosmetic skin is now available in Rematch’s in-game store, priced at either 1,000 Quants (premium currency purchased with real money) or 12,000 Blocks (earned through gameplay). The timing of the release coincides with ongoing coverage of streaking incidents at World Cup matches, including a notable incident during the recent USA vs. Paraguay game.
The Naturist skin joins a broader trend of live-service games incorporating timely pop culture and real-world references into their cosmetic offerings. By combining the cultural appeal of Arrested Development with the topical nature of World Cup 2026, Rematch is leveraging both entertainment media and current sporting events to drive engagement with its cosmetic monetization system.
