Rocket League cements itself as an indie sensation with 25 million registered players

Running automobiles into giant soccer balls has become a favorite pastime for millions of people all around the world.

Rocket League now has 25 million registered (not active) players. That makes it one of the best-selling games on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. This is an astonishing milestone for the indie game that has you playing soccer as a car. Developer Psyonix also confirmed that Rocket League has hosted more than 1 billion individual matches since its launch in summer 2015. Half of those games are part of the ranked competitive mode, which is likely a major key to its success. Rocket League has attracted an enthusiastic esports community, and that keeps fans engaged and coming back for more.
