Rocket League Free To Play Ps4
As of today Psyonix has made Rocket League as free to play, as well as introducing a new platform. The game will no longer be available to download on Steam.
PLAY ROCKET LEAGUE FOR FREE! Download and compete in the high-octane hybrid of arcade-style soccer and vehicular mayhem! Unlock items in Rocket Pass, climb the Competitive Ranks, compete in Competitive Tournaments, complete Challenges, enjoy cross-platform progression and more! Rocket League Is Officially Going Free To Play On September 23 For PS4 Joe Apsey / September 15, 2020 Psyonix has finally announced that Rocket League will be going free-to-play on September 23.
Psyonix recently announced that their banner game will become free to play. Rocket League is a cross-platform sports game where players control cars and play very large scale soccer – or ‘Soccar’.
Since launch the action-packed game has become immensely popular, boasting over 60 million players across PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
What’s changing?
With moves to free play, Psyonix have declared that their core gameplay will remain unchanged, however they plan to make the game easier to explore and navigate through refining the main menus, as well as improving their Tournaments and Challenges. Cross-platform progression will also be introduced for the first time, so you can bring all of your achievements with you whenever you play.
At the same time the game goes free to play, it will be released on another platform: the Epic Games Store on PC. The game itself will not change, and it will also feature the ability to play cross-platform – including between the Epic Games Store and Steam. PlayStation players will receive a boon of their own too – PS Plus is no longer required to play Rocket League online.
We’re almost there! Notes for today’s free to play release: https://t.co/4BOhSHpHry#TakeYourShot

Psyonix has announced that anyone who has playedbefore the free launch will be rewarded with “Legacy” status, including:

Challenges
An overhaul to the Challenge system also comes with the update, specifically adding a set of New Driver Challenges aimed at new players learning the game. If you owned the game before the update, don’t worry, you wont see these challenges.
Challenges now come in three types: weekly, seasonal, and event-based (for special events and limited-time rewards).
