Even though it only came out on PlayStation 4 and PC a few days ago, Rocket League has now become an official eSport.
On the game’s official Twitter account, the developers shared the exciting news:
It’s Official! We are now a LEGIT eSports game! Thank you @ESL @ESLRocketLeague !!! https://t.co/5zqBJN68J1

At the same time, it looks like a new Twitter account for ESL Rocket League, with ESL being one of the largest eSport organizations in the world, has popped up:
This Sunday, @RocketLeague will be kicking off on @ESLPlay! Sign up your team & win prizes! http://t.co/B50UabeZzJ pic.twitter.com/hBww0lYHdh

Pretty exciting stuff, especially since the first of several Rocket League kickoff cups will begin on Sunday, July 12, although these will be replaced with Go4RocketLeague in August. Check out the ESL website for information on how to sign up, and be sure to check out our review of the game.
