Season 3 came out! And Season 4! What about the Summer Roadtrip Event? What about RLCS X?" I understand the question, but I will now shoot it back at you: other than a small number of bug fixes, do you think a few new decals, a couple of new car designs, and some re-released vehicles really take up the entire collective resources of a veteran game developer? Yes, they are also migrating the game to Unreal Engine 5, but surely something else is in development behind the scenes. Okay, I can almost hear the angsty question: "But, but, but. Psyonix has been missing in action for a long time now, let's be real. It's a no brainer! Rocket League 2 is Coming: What Has Psyonix Been Doing? Investment in a Rocket League 2 would certainly be worth it, extending the game's longevity and giving it a truly next-gen version. The thing is – Rocket League's bones are still insanely old, and it won't be native to Unreal Engine 5 even after the upgrade. Now, yes, Rocket League is more or less confirmed to be getting an Unreal Engine 5 update, as it was stated in a recent job advertisement. Let's be real, trying to run a modern game on Unreal Engine 3 is like trying to run Cyberpunk 2077 on a Windows 7 PC – it works, but it's not really advised. Rocket League runs on Unreal Engine 3, an engine that is now two versions out-of-date. Rocket League 2 is Coming: Unreal Engine 3 is Old & Outdated that isn't something that would usually happen with a simple expansion, is it? Look, it is possible that Rocket League "Next" is something like a port of Rocket League into a new and more powerful engine, and redesigned for next-gen. It isn't certain what Rocket League "Next" is, but it could very well be a codename for Rocket League 2, especially since its domain name is anonymously registered. It was described as some kind of "next-gen client" and that it would provide a whole new gameplay experience for Rocket League fans. That's right, during the court proceedings, Epic Games was forced to reveal all sorts of unannounced stuff, including a project code-named Rocket League "Next". Apple lawsuit, and it even has a registered domain name. Rocket League "Next" is a project that was revealed during the Epic Games vs. Rocket League 2 is Coming: Rocket League "Next" is Real Wait, we're going to get to this point later, it is the last one in this article.This certainly hints that my previous statement about the game's runway reaching its end may be somewhat true. Rocket League has seen significantly declining numbers in recent weeks and months, especially since the beginning of Season 3, and the end of RLCS X.Rocket League is six years old now, so its runway may be reaching the end. Epic Games are going to want a real and sustainable return on this massive investment, they'll want a new game that they can release, market, and keep going for years to come.The problem? Well, there are three reasons why I think this is so important: The shift was originally a huge success, with the game reaching its highest real-time player base in years, and launching the game back into the stratosphere with free content and a bunch of new Seasons. Psyonix was purchased by Epic Games, leading to Rocket League's free-to-play shift back in 2020. ![]() Rocket League 2 is Coming: Psyonix Was Purchased by Epic Games Psyonix Confirms Rocket League's Move to Unreal Engine 5. ![]()

Places to Visit in the Southwest Region ![]() Developments during the industrial revolution like the Bessemer process for manufacturing steel changed the appearance of industry in the Southwest. A well-known railroad called the Union Pacific was finished in 1869. The Industrial Revolutionīy the 1880s, a time of industrialization nationwide, travel to the west became dominated by railroads instead of stagecoaches. In particular, the confederates occupied Texas and wanted to seize New Mexico and Oklahoma. The expansion west was often driven by confederate forces who envisioned a transcontinental proslavery empire through the Southwest United States. A major point of contention for the United States was whether new states joining the union would become free or slave states. Texas was the only true slave state in the Southwest region, and California was a free state.

In addition to a cultural influence left over from this period, many of the towns and cities in the Southwest have Spanish names, such as Santa Fe and El Paso. In the 1500s, when Europeans began to settle colonies in North America, Spain controlled many parts of the continent, including the areas that cover modern-day Mexico and the American Southwest, a territory known as New Spain.
