    It's a blast to play and it only gets better as skills improve over time and as the competition ramps up. It's a game that everyone, whether they’re big into sports video games or just can’t seem to get into them, will really enjoy.

    Rocket League is a pure videogame defined by an excellent mixture of its mechanics. It's extremely fun, addictive, one of the best competitive experiences of this year on PS4.

    Rocket League has the most addicting gameplay we experienced in a while now. Playing this game reminded us why we fell in love with gaming in the first place.

    Rocket League may only feel like a glorified minigame, but its wild, tense, and fast-paced gameplay makes it one of PS4’s best multiplayer experiences to date.

    Fast, simple and funny variation of football with devices shines especially in multiplayer.

    Rocket League does everything needed to create a kick ass sports game. It's simple enough to learn the mechanics in a few minutes, but also complicated enough to require several hours of play to understand the finer details. Those hours will certainly fly by.

    An incredible game created by incredible developers that care for quality and their fans. Psyonix have put so much effort into creating thisAn incredible game created by incredible developers that care for quality and their fans. Psyonix have put so much effort into creating this car football sequel and have delivered exactly what fans from the community have asked for. (And more!)

    The visuals are colourful, over the top and impressive.
    Physics and gameplay are perfect and the game plays just how it should.
    Loads of customisation items. Literally millions of different combinations.
    The online is very very stable.
    Various ways to play with friends including up to 4 player split screen.
    Cross play for PC and PS4.
    A season mode for offline play.
    Replay editor which also acts as a photo mode is a very welcome feature.
    Future support for the game confirmed, including DLC and free stadiums.
    Day one release on PlayStation Plus for free is a wonderful bonus and a very loyal move from Psyonix to their fans.

    This game is tons of fun and is the most fun I've had with a game in ages. You won't regret picking this up. Although you may never put it down.

    They are such a big esports Title ,Thats why it got nominated into best esports game of the year

    They are such a big esports Title ,Thats why it got nominated into best esports game of the year

    One thing that they definitely need is CROSS PLATFORM TRADING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    They also need to invest more money in the game and get more devs and publishers to enhance it and get more people working on the game for hackers and stuff.

    My Biggest one yet is "UNREAL ENGINE 5" if they add that the game will go from a 8.3 rating to probably a 8.9 rating

    I haven't had this much fun with a multiplayer game since Team Fortress. Rocket League really takes the cake for gameplay/affordabilityI haven't had this much fun with a multiplayer game since Team Fortress. Rocket League really takes the cake for gameplay/affordability -ratio.

    Truth be told, I was originally planning to buy the new Batman, but since I got hooked on this game, I never bought it. Didn't regret this decision for a second.

    Only gripe I have is that the default camera is quite funky, and personally, I'm still trying to find the settings that work best for me. Regardless, can't wait for the season to start, and hopefully get a partner or two to dominate some noobs!

    The 0 score will come as a surprise because I love this game, my review is catered to Epic Games and their horrendous takeover of the gamesThe 0 score will come as a surprise because I love this game, my review is catered to Epic Games and their horrendous takeover of the games economy. Items that costed 2-3 keys (2-3 dollars) now cost 1200-1500 credits (basically 15 dollars)? It’s utterly ridiculous. I knew Epic Games was a joke that doesn’t care about consumers at all, I just hoped it wouldn’t become this bad on my favorite game. The prices need to be adjusted, that’s a minimum. But Epic knows the prices are ridiculous so they’ll change them after community outrage and then play like they’re the good guy and gain fan favor. If you love video games do not fall for this, Epic know it’s ridiculous, they did it on purpose just to fix it later. Epic have proved again for the 100th time that we are a bottom line, not a human with a heart and soul that got into videogames as a kid because we thought they were fun. The days of coming home from school and getting to play your favorite game without predatory business practices being shoved down your throat are over thanks to EA, Epic, Activision etc. This is the pinnacle of what videogames have become, we are all numbers to them, please boycott Epic games or at least their predatory practices Expand
