We already understood Rocket League was going free-to-play this summer, and today, the games designer, Psyonix, announced that the automobile soccer game will go free-to-play on September 23rd.
The transition to free-to-play also marks the launching of the game arriving on the Epic Games Store, a digital shop owned by Psyonixs moms and dad company, Epic Games, which acquired the studio last year. After September 23rd, the game will be delisted from Steam; however, the studio describes that, regardless of which PC variation you own, both variations will still get “full assistance for future updates and functions,” such as cross-platform play. But you cant get it on Steam totally free.
Rocket League will no longer need PS4 and Switch players to have a subscription to play online
In addition to switching to a free-to-play design, Psyonix also confirmed previously this month that Rocket League will no longer need PS4 and Nintendo Switch players to have a membership to play online. Xbox One owners, regrettably, still need an Xbox Live Gold subscription.
If you purchase the video game before it ends up being totally free, Psyonix will offer you some in-game “tradition” rewards, including all of the Rocket League-branded DLC and over 200 in-game items utilized to tailor your cars, such as wheels, antennas, and decals. Psyonix also verified that existing players will have access to cross-platform progression linking, allowing them to link their platforms to the Epic Games Account and rollover their progress made on a various game platform.
