Fans of the Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) can anticipate a packed off-season, teeming with vibrant tournaments across all RLCS’s major regions.
As the curtain fell on the 2022-2023 RLCS season in August, Team Vitality managed to overthrow reigning champions Team BDS, subsequently setting a new benchmark in viewership figures, to show how healthy this esports game is.
Rocket League developer Psyonix is already paving the way for continued action with a slew of off-season tournaments, culminating in the next RLCS season in 2024. An official blog post by Psyonix has shed light on the forthcoming events, emphasizing a vast array of tournaments to keep the Rocket League esports scene ticking over.
This off-season, Rocket League players can expect to delve into varied game modes, spanning from individual face-offs to traditional three-on-three clashes, with certain events even introducing distinctive modifications to the classic gameplay.
A highlight of the off-season calendar, undoubtedly, is the resurgence of the Collegiate Rocket League (CRL). Catering to North American college teams since its inception in 2017, the CRL is poised to host 32 formidable teams for the Fall Semester of 2023, scheduled for October and November.
Further augmenting the off-season line-up, Raidiant Esports is poised to unveil a fresh iteration of the Star Chasers Showdown, a dedicated women’s tournament for North America and Europe, featuring a substantial prize pot of $30,000 (£24,230).
Meanwhile, Rocket League enthusiasts across APAC, MENA, and SSA regions can look forward to the Asia Pro League’s extensive 15-tournament series, culminating in a grand $50,000 (£40,400) finale.
Down south in the LATAM region, the Rocket Street Latam Championship is on the horizon.
