The game will now be available for free on both Android and iOS platforms later this year. It will thrive on the same success formula of the Rocket League to make gaming even more fun and prolific for the mobile platform.

Rules are the same, drive the ball into the opponent’s goal; this in 1vs1 or 2vs2 matches. The new perspective is made possible with the option to play online with friends.
Now to make it interesting for mobile gamers, the Rocket League Sideswipe will comprise fast – two minute matches. But players will have the option to customize cars and play competitively – competing with other players up the rankings.
