The remarkable success story that is Rocket League began with a unique launch strategy three years ago almost to the day. Rocket League released on PS4 for free to those with PlayStation Plus. Since then the game has grown to incredible heights, has a strong presence in esports, and the developers continue to support the game with compelling new content.
Now Rocket League is again a part of a subscription service but this time on the Xbox One. Rocket League is now available as part of the Xbox Game Pass.
Xbox Game Pass has become one of the best values in gaming since launching in May of 2017. The library includes over 100 games and will also feature all first party Microsoft games on their release dates. That means upcoming titles like Forza Horizon 4 and Crackdown among others and just wanting one of those alone makes the $60 annual price worth it.
Because all the EA Sports games go to EA Access there will never be a huge supply of major licensed sports games on Xbox Game Pass but Rocket League has joined the likes of Pro Evolution Soccer 2018, NBA Playgrounds, Super Mega Baseball, Laser League, MotoGP 17, Casey Powell Lacrosse 16, and F1 2015.
