Rocket League's current season is winding down in the next week, and the next season of the car-based football game is introducing a much-requested feature: 2v2 tournaments. Two-player teams can now compete in 32-team bracket tournaments, and the number of weekly bouts available in each region is getting bumped up as well.
The 2v2 tournaments, which arrive with the start of Season 4, will function identically to the traditional 3v3 tournaments, explains game designer Grady Standard. "Lots of people have been requesting this," he says. "It is by far our most requested addition to tournaments." Standard says your tournament rank will function the same way for both tournament types, and you'll matchmake for 2v2 the same way you do for 3v3. The rewards for 2v2 tournaments will be the same as the rewards for the 3v3 tournaments.
Psyonix is also adding extra modes to tournaments in Season 4. This means that you'll find Rumble, Hoops, Snow Day, and Drop Shot modes placed randomly throughout the weekly tournament schedule. Standard says your existing tournament rank will determine how you're placed in these extra modes, but the outcome will not have an impact on your tournament rank.
