Rocket League will most certainly go down as one of the most impressive indie titles ever, and after 5 years they have managed to attract over 75 million players!
Developers Psyonix recently celebrated the fifth anniversary of the game, and with that they revealed a number of impressive statistics.
The popularity of the physics based football with cars games saw it move from two platforms at launch (PS4 and PC), to now being available on four (PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC). There have been over 5 billion matches have been played, with over 29 billion goals scored.
At launch, there were 10 available cars but now there are over 70, and the game has established itself as a popular eSports title, with the Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) heading towards a 10th season.
The game has enjoyed consistent improvements and development as the community has grown, and Psyonix have revealed that there is still more to come.
In a statement on their official website, they said, "The five years between Rocket League's launch and today have flown by like they just picked up a corner boost. To say we at Psyonix are thankful for the community's continued support is an understatement. We know Rocket League wouldn't be where it is today without your unparalleled passion for Soccar, and what you've accomplished in-game is simply unbelievable.
"Even though Rocket League has soared to new heights in 2020, we still think that the best is yet to come. Stay tuned later this summer for more info on the future of the game.
"From all of us at Psyonix, thank you for being a part of this amazing journey. Here's to five more years!"
