Grab The Games: Rocket League®

It's time to review a football game or a racing game! How about both? Rocket league is game developed by Psyonix where Soccer meets driving once again in the long-awaited, physics-based sequel to the beloved arena classic, Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars!

A futuristic Sports-Action game, Rocket League, equips players with booster-rigged vehicles that can be crashed into balls for incredible goals or epic saves across multiple, highly-detailed arenas. Using an advanced physics system to simulate realistic interactions, Rocket League relies on mass and momentum to give players a complete sense of intuitive control in this unbelievable, high-octane re-imagining of association football.

In the final version as well as the alpha version, in which I took part, the first thing that impressed me were definitely the graphics of the game that they look really sharp and beautiful even when you use a low-end PC. Furthermore, an aspect worth mentioning is the deep customization with more than 10 billion possible combinations and you can unlock everything as you level up and when you play the game more and more. Moreover, there are a lot of different in which you play alone or with friends.

Each one has a lot of setting to choose from apart from the difficulty level. The game also features up to 4 players local split screen which offers fun for all the family and up to 8 people online matches with cross-platform gameplay. There is also an amazing replay feature! As far as the negative aspects are concerned, there are almost none! Sometimes when online the game lags but it may be due to my connection! I would also love an announcer/commentary feature!

To sum up, Rocket League is an excellent competitive game that can be easily considered as the next big e-sport title. It is fun, quick and easy to pick up! I totally recommend it especially if you love these type of games!
