A moderator of the official subreddit for Rocket League (@GoldfishRL) posted a tweet indicating that the game would be changing its game engine, now opting for Unreal Engine 5.

The isolated tweet was not yet an official confirmation factor, until Devin Connors, Senior CM at Psyonix, confirmed the engine change:

"Updating the technology that powers Rocket League, including a move to UE5, is something we are actively working on. This is a long-term project for us, and we will share more details when we are ready to show our players what is coming next."
