Rocket League Announced for PS4; Combines Cars with Soccer

There are very few creative takes on sports in gaming these days, so when one crosses the radar no matter how unorthodox the concept it becomes worth a look.

Rocket League is one of those. Officially announced today and coming to the PlayStation 4 next spring, Rocket League is a sequel to the 2008 game Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars, and combines racing with soccer.

Features include a new Season mode, advanced physics system, broadcast-quality replays, wide range of customization options, online play with dedicated servers, and split-screen local multiplayer. Rocket League will debut with a multiplayer showing at the PlayStation Experience in Las Vegas this weekend.
