Twitch, Psyonix announce official Rocket League Championship Series

Twitch and Psyonix today detailed the official Rocket League Championship Series.

The official competitive league will start this month and offer up a total prize pool of $75,000 USD.

“From the moment we hit the pitch last July, we knew that Rocket League was a legitimate eSport,” saidJeremy Dunham of Psyonix. “Twitch and its streamers have been an instrumental part of our success since we launched last July, and that made them a perfect match for us. We couldn’t be more thrilled to be working with a team that we respect as highly as we do Twitch, and we can’t wait to show the world what we can do in Esports together!”

“The Twitch community has collectively rallied around Rocket League to help it achieve organic success on our platform,” added Nick Allen, Director of Esports Operations at Twitch. “By working with Psyonix to build an official professional league around this grassroots phenomenon, Rocket League’s legions of players and fans can potentially turn their passion into a career.”

The three-month Championship Series will be played on PS4 and Windows PC and will be broadcast via Twitch.
