The update will release on September 16 at 9 AM PT / 12 AM ET, and will add cross-platform progression to Rocket League. Players will need to connect their Rocket League to an Epic Games account and specify their primary platform, which will allow them to play with their competitive rank and progression on connected platforms.
Additionally, the update will add Epic's Support-A-Creator feature to the game, which allows an accepted Creator to earn 5% of credits spent on the game by that player while using their code.

It will also not require Nintendo Switch or PlayStation 4 online memberships to play online.
