Rocket League servers are UP.

Epic reports all 8 Rocket League services as Operational — login, matchmaking, the Item Shop, parties and the rest are listed below. If you still can't play, the problem may be limited to your platform, region or connection — or be one Epic hasn't confirmed yet, so check the official channels too.

Steam players only. Rocket League has not been sold on Steam since it went free to play on the Epic Games Store in 2020, so this counts only players who already own it on Steam, not Epic Games Store, PlayStation, Xbox or Switch players.

OFFICIAL RECORDS · OUR MATH

Our calculation: our archive of Epic's records holds 6 resolved Rocket League incidents with a measurable duration since 02 Mar 2026 (incidents resolved in under a minute are left out). The median time from the start time Epic lists to "resolved" was 47m, and the component named most often was Matchmaking (5 incidents). Incidents Epic labels with no impact are left out, durations are rounded to the minute, and a long duration is how long the incident stayed open, not proof the service was down the whole time.

Source: Psyonix incident history . Impact is Epic's own label. Durations run from the start time Epic lists to its "resolved" post; incidents resolved in under a minute are left out of the summary. We keep every record we collect, so this archive grows beyond the 50 items Epic's feed returns at once.

Scheduled downtime is listed separately from unexpected incidents. If an official end time is missing, we show “Ongoing” — never an invented time.

What to do if Rocket League is down.

  1. 01
    Check which Rocket League service is affected.

    Epic lists Login, Matchmaking, Game Services, Item Shop, Stats and Leaderboards, Parties, Friends, and Messaging, Voice Chat and Website separately. If only Matchmaking is degraded, you can reach the main menu but fail to find a match.

  2. 02
    Check whether your Epic account can sign in.

    If Login is not Operational in the table above, signing in may be affected; Epic's incident notice says which platforms are hit. If Login is green, try signing out and back in, and check that your platform account is still linked to your Epic Games account.

  3. 03
    Restart the game and your platform client.

    Close Rocket League completely, restart the Epic Games Launcher, Steam or your console, and let any update finish before you queue again.

  4. 04
    Test your own connection.

    Try another network such as a phone hotspot, and check your platform's own status page (PlayStation Network, Xbox or Nintendo). A problem limited to one platform may not appear in Epic's feed.

05 / COMMON QUESTIONS

Rocket League server status FAQ.

Is Rocket League down right now?
The status banner at the top of this page reads Epic's official feed for the Rocket League group, every 5 minutes. If all eight services show Operational, Epic has not confirmed a Rocket League problem. A regional, platform or network issue, or one Epic hasn't posted yet, can still stop you from playing.
Why can I open Rocket League but not find a match?
Login, Game Services and Matchmaking are separate services in Epic's feed, and one can be degraded while the others work. Check the Matchmaking row in the component table above.
Does Rocket League still have Steam players?
Yes. Rocket League has not been sold on Steam since 2020, but players who already owned it there can still play through Steam. Steam's public API reports how many of them are playing now; the number on this page is that Steam-only count, not everyone online.
Is Rocket League free to play?
Yes. Rocket League became free to play on September 23, 2020, when it also launched on the Epic Games Store, according to Epic's announcement. Being free does not change server status: login, matchmaking and the Item Shop are all listed separately in Epic's feed above.
Do I need an Epic Games account to play Rocket League?
Linking an Epic Games account is what gives you cross-platform progression and a shared inventory across platforms, according to Epic's free-to-play announcement. (Player-to-player trading, also mentioned there, was removed in December 2023.) If your items or progress look missing on one platform, check the platform link in your Epic Games account settings before assuming the servers are down.
Is Rocket League Sideswipe covered here?
No. Epic lists Rocket League Sideswipe, the mobile game, as a separate group on its status page. This page covers only the Rocket League group.
