Rocket League

In their Fall 2018 Roadmap update, Psyonix shared that they have to delay RocketID, which improves cross-play by letting you play with friends across platforms. Here’s their full statement on the subject:

Before diving into what’s next, we have an update on RocketID, the cross-platform party feature that many of you are really excited for. While our goal was to release RocketID before the end of 2018, we’ve made the difficult decision to push its release into early 2019. The good news is that with Sony’s recent announcements regarding full cross-platform functionality, we can now make additional changes to prepare RocketID for ALL platforms should we receive permission to do so! We’re working incredibly hard to ensure that it’s as intuitive, stable, and polished as possible, before releasing it to the world. We know the wait has been frustrating for many of you who are eager for this feature, and we thank you for your patience as we continue to work on cross-platform party support.

It looks like cross-play on PS4 is limited to Fortnite, at least for now. Jeremy Dunham, VP of Publishing at Psyonix, gave a statement to Destructoid that though they’re happy Fortnite attained cross-play with PS4, they don’t have any updates about if they’ll follow in their footsteps. We’ll likely learn more about the possibility of playing Rocket League on Switch with PS4 users in the coming days.

One of the big features Psyonix has been working on for Rocket League is cross-platform parties. Players can register an in-game ID comprised of a name and a unique code, add friends from other platforms by entering their ID into a new in-game friends list, and party with friends online.

The functionality will be added under the name RocketID. However, fans will have to wait a bit longer for its arrival, as it’s now planned for September.

Psyonix has announced a new version of Rocket League for retail. Warner Bros. Interactive will release Rocket League: Ultimate Edition around the world in August.
