SteamOS and Mac Beta VersionsAs we continue to upgrade Rocket League® with new technologies like DirectX 11 and a 64-bit client, it is no longer viable for us to maintain support for the macOS and Linux (SteamOS) platforms. As a result, the final patch for the macOS and Linux versions of Rocket League was released on March 10, 2020. This update disabled online functionality (such as Casual and Competitive Playlists) for players on macOS and Linux, but offline features including Local Matches, and splitscreen play are still accessible.Please note that Rocket League® on SteamOS and macOS may have bugs and stability issues not seen in the Windows version of the game, and these issues may not be fixed in future updates.
