As this keeps getting requested, we've scheduled some more official GamingOnLinux Rocket League tournaments!

This is your chance to show off your mad skills, have a bit of fun and hopefully not lose too badly. This time, we're scheduling events for both EU and US to hopefully cover more people with multiple times for more choice.

All of them are named "GamingOnLinux", making it super easy for you to find. Turn up 5-10 minutes before the starting time, as you will need to register before it starts!

Here's the dates (for those in the UK like me, remember we're UTC+1).

Friday June 8th:

  • 1v1 - 6PM UTC (EU)
  • 1v1 - 9PM UTC (EU)
  • 1v1 - 6PM PST (US)
  • 1v1 - 10PM PST (US)

Saturday June 9th:

  • 2v2 - 6PM UTC (EU)
  • 2v2 - 9PM UTC (EU)
  • 2v2 - 6PM PST (US)
  • 2v2 - 10PM PST (US)

As I understand it, for the 2v2 to work you need to be in a party of two when you join a few minutes before as it will not buddy you up with another, so get a friend ready with you if you're wanting to join those games.

Let me know if the times listed don't match up, timezones are hard…

Don't own Rocket League? Grab it from Humble Store or Steam and come join us.

We also have a dedicated Rocket League chat channel in our Discord, feel free to come chat there too.

Haha! Skills and not losing are a bit too much to ask, but I'll at least have fun. Can only do the 6PM UTC events though, and the 2v2 only if I can rope in some sucker a friend to lose play with me.

In any case, thanks for doing more of these!

If you want the failure to be truly epic, I could assist you. :D

I'm all about the epic fails. I'll be properly tired and relaxed after my sauna on Saturday evening so I promise to bring my best B game. :D

Friend invite sent on Steam.

The 1v1 was fine, but you actually seem to have set this one for 5PM UTC unless I'm mistaken. That's a proper shame as it means I'll have to skip my weekly sauna to play. :(

Any way you could reschedule it, or is it too late?

But you have two times within your region to pick between. Are both bad times?

The other one is midnight my time so yeah, sadly a bit late for me. Otherwise I'd do both. It's not a big deal though.

I was just asking in case it was a mistake that Liam might be able to fix. Otherwise he'll have people reading this article and missing the tournament by an hour again.

Woops, I've re-done that one to the correct time :)

I wouldn't mind playing in one of these, but have the Rocket League devs fixed the issue where Xbox controllers (and potentially others) get recognized as player two under Linux? I abandoned Rocket League on Linux a while ago because I simply wasn't able to play with any of my controllers.
