Psyonix announced that "Rocket League" has officially surpassed 5 million downloads since its launch early this month. The physics-based video game is a free PlayStation plus title and all subscribers were able to get the car and a soccer mashup for free.

The number of downloads also includes "Rocket League" download through PC that was also released on the same day. In a Play Station blog, Psyonix Vice President Jeremy Dunham wrote, "It is our sincere hope that this mix of paid DLC and free add-on content is what Rocket League fans have been waiting for."
