Rocket League is free to play from September 23 – Gaming – News

Psyonix has announced that Rocket League will be permanently free to play from September 23. It was already known that this was coming, although the developer had not yet set a date for when this will take effect.

With Rocket League going free, the football racing game will also appear on the Epic Games Store, so let the developer know. With that, Rocket League will disappear from Steam for new players; PC players who already own the game through Steam will be able to continue using that platform and will receive all updates as well. It was already clear that Rocket League free-to-play zou worden, a step that was already expected after Epic Games took over Psyonix last year.

Players can connect different platforms via the Epic Games Account from Thursday. That makes cross-platform progressie possible. That means items, Rocket Pass progression, and Competitive Rank achieved will be maintained if a player plays the game on a different platform. There will no PlayStation Plus or Nintendo Switch Online subscription required to be able to play Rocket League online, but that does not apply to Xbox Live Gold.

Those interested who purchase the game before it becomes free to play will receive the so-called Legacy Status, with which they receive all Rocket League DLC and the necessary cosmetic items.
