Rocket League Sideswipe
Psyonix Studios created a 2D version of Rocket League for mobile. Even though this sounds limiting, the game is pretty great. It offers similar Twitch controls to the original, but now you’re playing on a 2D plane where the goals are on either side of the screen. Controllers are supported out of the box, and the touch controls are serviceable for quick matches. PvP is the name of the game, and you can play 1vs1 or 2vs2 in a few modes.
Best of all, the game is free. It isn’t monetized, making it a perfect example of F2P done right. Plus, seeing that Psyonix has also fairly monetized the original PC and console game, it’s possible that when Rocket League Sideswipe is monetized, it will sell cosmetics just like the OG. So, as it stands, Rocket League Sideswipe is one of the better competitive games on Android, and it’s a fantastic F2P release that won’t break the bank.
