Let’s take a quick look at Rocket League’s mobile counterpart and its features.

What’s special about Rocket League Sideswipe?

The transition from PCs and consoles to mobile is bound to change a lot of things. And often, these changes might disrupt the gameplay a little. However, Rocket League Sideswipe has pulled off a smooth launch with almost no glitches.

The first thing that you will notice is that Sideswipe is 2D with 3D elements. This makes controls easier while keeping the game’s aesthetic. And the background score deserves a special mention.

The basic gameplay is the same. You smash fancy cars into giant football. You get a 1v1 match, 2v2 match, and 2v2 hoop match. To get familiar with the controls, the game has a practice mode and you can play against AI too.

You can customize your car with toppers, paint, boosters, and much more. There’s a Rocket Pass with rewards like SP, toppers, boosters, crates, avatars, and more. As you gain XP, you move forward and unlock more rewards.

The biggest difference can be seen in the controls. By default, there’s a joystick on the left, and the boost and jump buttons are placed on the right. This default layout can be customized to your liking.

Finally, automatic matchmaking does not take more than a few seconds. All you need is a steady internet connection to start swiping in Rocket League Sideswipe!
