Initially releasing in July 2015,Rocket Leaguehas become a consistently popular multiplayer title in the years since its release. Bringing multiple new cars and other changes with eachnewRocket Leagueseason, the game combining soccer and cars proved to be quite the unique title. However, when one game proves to be successful through a certain gameplay style, plenty are bound to try and imitate it. Now, it seems 2K Games is readying itself to compete withRocket Leagueas it designs a new title calledGravity Goal.According to a recent leak by Tom Henderson, the company behindsports titles such asWWE 2K22andNBA 2K22is working on a game that will be highly similar toRocket League. Allegedly,Gravity Goalwill give players a similar style of gameplay toRocket League, in that the former will also offer 1v1, 2v2, and 3v3 matchmaking revolving around a ball being knocked into a goal using vehicles.RELATED:Rocket League Adding Batmobile Based on New MovieWhileGravity Goalmay immediately seem like a carbon copy of the game it wants to compete with, it does reportedly have some major twists that will set it apart fromRocket League. First,Gravity Goalwon’t have players driving cars in order to score goals and will instead revolve around bikes similar to the light cycles seen in theTRONmovies. This isn’t the first timeTRONhas crossed over with gaming, as battle royale games likeFall GuysandFortnitehave both featuredTRONskins.
Keeping with theTRONtheme, players ofGravity Goalwill also be able to throw discs at their opponents, which will damage an enemy’s bike and cause them either to slow down or stop entirely. WhileRocket Leaguedoes have a slightly futuristic atmosphere,Gravity Goalwill reportedly take that to the next level, fully embracing a high-energy vibe that will again fit with theTRONaesthetic of the game.
According to the leaker,Gravity Goalwill likely be one of the 26 free-to-play titles Take-Two Interactive had previously stated it had in the works. The publisher is also looking to releaseGravity Goalon next-gen machines only, perhaps alluding to some increased performance thatRocket Leagueplayers aren’t used to seeing. Whether the new game will be able to compete with the already establishedRocket Leagueis unknown. However, as afree to play video game, there will likely be people willing to pick up and tryGravity Goal.
