rl_cross-play_asset_rl_1920.309bf22bd29c2e411e9dd8eb07575bb1.jpg

The second day of our tournament week has come to a close with the end of our Street Fighter V tournament. Next up is the hit RC car-controlled soccer game Rocket League! We'll be doing a bracket of 1v1 solo matches (best 2 out of 3), so if you're interested in joining, post your handle for Rocket League in the thread below! Rocket League conveniently features cross-play between Steam/PC, PS4, Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch, meaning no matter where you play, you've got a chance of walking away with the $20 prize up for grabs. Things are going to kick off at 12pm CDT on March 31st (5pm GMT/4am ACT/7pm CET), so you've got until then to enter.

we dont have to enter a tournament code?
You just need the Rocket ID of the person, or having them on Steam, or setting up a private match, etc.

We're keeping track of this through Challonge rather than ingame itself, since I was a little unsure how it worked.

We're ready for the first round to begin! With no other entrants from when Chary posted the bracket on the previous page, it'll look the same.

@ImperiousRooster (qoq#3706) vs. @NicoAICP (NicoAICP#8326), the winner of which will play @LeonPro12 (LeonPro12#1677)

@Pheinte (Pheinte#2826) vs. @VashTS (VashTS#1653), the winner of which will play @Stecker8 (PazuzuJ#2970)

@Armadillo (FishGoesMoo#2262) vs. @PGPro12 (PGPro12#4336), the winner of which will play @MyDePain (MyDePain#6968)

@Chary vs. @Ericzander, the winner of which will play @NGT (NGT#4535)

As previously mentioned, we'll be playing best 2 out of 3, so when your matches are over post your results here and we'll update the bracket. Have fun everyone!

What do we do lol? I've never really messed with anything other than general online play

I know for the PS4 version, if you hit R2 it will bring up a social menu that shows you your friends on that platform, then some options for contacting people via their RocketID for cross-platform play. In the post above I have everyone's competitors listed with their RocketID in brackets, so you should be able to open up that menu to contact them in-game and set up a private party to play in.

That's what I figured, thanks for confirming. Waiting on @Pheinte
