So, what is this new crossover you keep hearing about? Well, you see, Epic games is the company that owns Fortnite. They also bought Psyonix last year. What the duck is Psyonix? They are the developers behind Rocket League. What is Rocket League? It’s an exciting mini-game for PC and is a quirky take on soccer. In the game, instead of men, you have cars, weird jumpy ones, that play football.
Now, Rocket League belongs to Epic Games and the game is very famous in some parts of the world already. But, only some! So, Epic Games plans to use Fortnite’s popularity to make Rocket League just as famous. Hence, the event!

You will also get rewards for logging into an Epic account. Also, you get some if you connect the two games together. It is a Promotional after all! Duh!
Epic Games will discontinue the game on Steam. However, if you got it from there, don’t worry! The support for the game will continue in spite of that.
