Rocket League has reached another sales milestone: developer Psyonix announced this week that the game has sold a total of over five million copies. It’s not even a year old yet (though at ten months, it’ll get there). In total Psyonix has earned $100 million from Rocket League-related sales….this cumulative number equals over twice as […]
The latest maps for Rocket League have used a Tron-like visual style that developer Psyonix refers to as a virtual reality theme. The next one will arrive in June and continue this theme, but more importantly, it’ll put a new twist on the gameplay. “The visual aesthetic for Pillars will continue its tipped hat towards […]
We’re not quite at the point where Rocket League users of all platforms can openly mingle freely, but we’re getting there. Today the latest update to the XBox One version of Rocket League enabled the ability to cross-platform play against users playing on the PC. The upgrade should be live at this moment, having gone […]
We previously reported here that Psyonix would begin seriously experimenting with Rocket League’s format in order to keep it fresh. This meant expanding the gameplay from car soccer to car basketball, but a lot of people had trouble envisioning such a thing. If the cars have no arms, how do they fake the funk on […]
The recipe for success in the indie scene last year was to combine car combat with a giant soccer ball (or a giant futbol….bol). Developer Psyonix has expanded Rocket League’s gameplay in many different ways (different cars! different arenas! a bigger ball!) but they’ve never taken the radical step of changing the mimicked sport entirely.

Some patches are big and some are small. This patch is pretty darn small. It only applies to one console and the patch notes are short. In addition they aren’t really all that specific. What we do know is that there was an issue with the Competitive division text where it was displaying incorrectly; post-patch […]
Yesterday, in response to whether Rocket League would be allowed to match up Playstation 4 and Xbox One players, Chris Charla of Microsoft said cross-platform play was fully open for discussion from their end, and they’d be willing to allow it. “in addition to natively supporting cross-platform play between Xbox One and Windows 10 games […]
Last year, Rocket League was a Playstation 4 console exclusive. It was also on the PC and the two versions were allowed play against each other. When the exclusivity deal ended, and an XBox version of Rocket League was announced, players wondered if it, too, would allow cross-platform play. It did not. Today Microsoft is […]
Rocket League has crossed over with some pretty large properties over the past few months — Universal with the Delorean car, DC/WB with the Batmobile….but this latest crossover might not be as well known to you. Dying Light is a survival horror game that has nil to do with Rocket League, but they will be […]
The day has not yet come when car racing games get their own eSports telecasts, but we’re getting close. The car-combat-sports game Rocket League has one as of now. Twitch is parterning with Rocket League developer Psyonix to hold the first ever Rocket League Championship series, which will begin in the States and wind up […]
