  Yeah it’s called Rematch. It’s like soccer with humans and much fun. They should make an IRL sport like it /s

    I dunno. A sport that uses balls? Never gonna be popular.

    Nothing can compete with Basketcube, Basetetrahedra, or Foottesseract.

  During Overwatch Summer Games, they have Lucio all, which is just Rocket League with Lucio, maybe that is what you are thinking of?

  Rematch hasn’t released yet, but a few public playtests happened. While there are some strong similarities to Rocket League like controlling a single player, the walled arena and having a form of boost, it’s still very different and hasn’t yet given me the same thrill.

  Rematch does not have the verticality, and so it’s missing a whole dimension (and multiple degrees of freedom) of skill expression. The arena is significantly larger, as it’s built for more players, which results in a much slower game. It has the potential to be a very solid new esports game, however I can’t see it pulling away many players from Rocket League.
