Rocket powered cars, a giant ball, and an impossible sport where you score goals in mid-air.

On gut feeling, the community places it rather low, ahead of a quarter of games. The detail confirms a contrasted profile. Its art style holds up well, ahead of most titles, and the desert island pick stays decent. But fun, attachment, and especially the wish to rediscover it fall low, the last finishing at the very bottom of the ranking. Logical: Rocket League is a competitive game you relaunch endlessly for the challenge and mastery, not an adventure you discover once nor an experience that builds an emotional bond.

Next to other sports games, its brilliant idea, soccer in cars, made it a one of a kind esport phenomenon.

So, who is it for? For you if you like competition, precision, and long term mastery. Much less if you want solo play, a story, or an experience that leaves a mark.
