With these tips you will definitely win

It took a while, but there is now also a real Rocket League game available on your iPhone. With Rocket League Sideswipe, the addictive mix of football (or basketball) and cars comes to your mobile too. But what is Rocket League Sideswipe and how do you play it? That tells iPhoned you!

Rocket League Sideswipe on iPhone

The game Rocket League has been wildly popular on PC and consoles for years. There was even a Mac version for a while, but unfortunately support was discontinued for that. Now there is Rocket League Sideswipe, a special version of the game for your iPhone.

Rocket League Sideswipe on the iPhone is a slightly modified version of its older brother. For example, in this version you have a maximum of teams of two people and you play the game from a side view. The gameplay has remained the same, because you still have to try to get the ball into the opponent’s goal. You can choose from a game of football or basketball.

That sounds easy, were it not that it is quite difficult to hit the ball with the small bouncing cars. The fact that this creates chaotic (and often hilarious) scenes is immediately the reason why this game series is so popular.

The fact that the game uses a side view certainly benefits the controls. It is now easier to move towards the ball. You also still have a boost button (to drive extra fast) and you can do a double jump.

Rocket League Sideswipe: 4 Tips to Get Better

Rocket League Sideswipe is fun, chaotic and quite tricky. Of course it’s nice to win once in a while. That’s why we have a few more tips for you that will at least increase your chances of scoring!

1. Take some distance sometimes

There’s no question that Rocket League Sideswipe can be quite chaotic. That’s why sometimes it’s better to take the space for a while and wait to see where the ball goes. It is then easier to time your jump and boost. Often the goals in Rocket League are made quite spontaneously by someone who was outside the fray.

2. Use the double jump to hit the ball

To give the ball a good tap, you should try to hit the ball during the second jump (after all, you have a double jump). With this it is even possible to tap the ball over the entire field. Note that the ball in Rocket League Sideswipe can also bounce back quite hard when you hit a wall.

3. Use the boost (but in moderation)

The boost is extremely important to stay ahead of your opponents and it is even possible to use the boost in the air. However, remember that you can only charge the boost when your wheels are on the ground.

4. Keep Practicing

It may sound predictable, but keep practicing and persevere. In the long run you know exactly how the ball behaves and where to hit it to score an amazing goal.
