‘Rocket League’ for the Xbox One spotted at video game ratings board
“Rocket League” is currently taking the PlayStation 4 and PC by storm, but Xbox owners are still not able to get their hands on the hit-indie soccer/racing hybrid. However, a game listing leaked recently suggests that the release of the title for the “Xbox One” is coming soon.
A Taiwanese video game ratings board has revealed that “Rocket League” is indeed coming to the Xbox One. The listing was first spotted by Gematsu and a Twitter user. The listing has since been pulled down by the Taiwanese ratings board.
Rocket League” developer Psyonix had said before that it plans on further expanding the console scope of the game before the year ends. Adding another console to its list of platforms could further add up to the success of the game. It’s also reportedly possible to see cross-platform multiplayer between the different consoles. However, a PC vs. Xbox One multiplayer match-up is more likely since the Windows OS and the Xbox One are both owned by Microsoft.
The ratings leak comes just a few weeks after Psyonix’s marketing VP Jeremy Dunham confirmed to Gamespot that “Rocket League” is coming to other platforms. Since it’s unlikely for Psyonix to release the game to previous gen consoles, it’s no surprise that the much-anticipated Xbox One version will come soon.
"Yes, we are definitely bringing Rocket League to additional platforms," said Dunham to Gamespot. We'll have an official announcement of what platforms those are (and when) a little further down the line."
With the game having sold over five million copies across the PlayStation 4 and PC alone, it’s no surprise that Psyonix is aiming to extend its reach. With the Xbox One added to the fray, fans should expect more action-filled matches for months to come.
