I think the Project Cars dev spoilled something important...

Guess this should've been announced at their conference today.

Edit:

Does not look like a leak

Whoops! Lol. Sounds pretty interesting.

 

[TheWorthyEdge]

Aw thats awesome. Gimme.

 

[MassiveNights]

ESports bullshit appeals to a very small percentage of gamers and I'm not one of them but cool for those guys I guess.

 

[Storm Raider]

Would be cool for something like Battlefront or Destiny... Oh wait! No private matches!

Spoiler

in 2015!

Battlefield Hardline, Project Cars, Mortal Kombat X confirmed

 

[Guymelef]

This is available un Spain for months and iirc Portugal and Italy as well.
Bit here un Spain it's PS league and not PS PLUS league.

[TheWorthyEdge]

This is going to be so cool, hopefully it comes to the West. I really want to see BLOPS3, Destiny, Driveclub, and Battlefront. That'd be great.

The league was announced October last year: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=912389

Project Cars in the league is new.

 

[JoshHood]

This is not new.

 

[viHuGi]

i heard about this some months ago in Portugal, not sure if the same.

But they're calling this Plus.

 

[bombshell]

But they're calling this Plus.

It's been PS+ only since the announcement. I imagine it's just been renamed at some point, don't know when. It's not available in my country.

 

[Get_craycray]

It's been announced on the French PS Blog last week, they even mentionned DriveClub

At launch, the PlayStation Plus League will offer nine PS4 games to the competition:

FIFA 16 from Electronic Arts

[Radec]

No Black Ops 3 league ?

 

[Get_craycray]

No Black Ops 3 league ?

IIRC Black Ops 3 has its own thing for competition.

 

[iNvid02]

are those prize pools missing a couple of zeros?

 

[valkillmore]

Sounds awesome!

Very small percentage?

Im not an esports fanatic but im definitely gonna need to see some receipts for the claims

Also, bullshit?

 

[Gipsy Danger]

Dota and League have millions of people tuning in to watch tournaments = small percentage?

This seems cool. If it does something with Street Fighter then I would be very interested.

 

[5amshift]

This only limited to Europe as of now?

Receipts or get the fuck out.

 

[Hoo-doo]

So people who hone their craft in certain games can earn a few bucks from their couch at home. Neat.

I'd be down to watch some Rocket League matches.

Yeah I thought that rang a bell, may have been intended to be there from the start going by that thread but the launch woes would have stopped that.

 

[Rembrandt]

This is what I'm talking about. Dope idea. PSN & XBL need to bring more and more new ideas to their services. Streaming was a great choice and this seems like one, too. Now MS needs to bring back 1 vs 100.

 

[Rymuth]

Neat.

 

[3rdamention]

Whoops! Lol. Sounds pretty interesting.

Does sound amazing, like actually officiated esports titles, where everyone can join and try to play?


Rocket League is going to be ultra competitive!

 

[Industrialist]

Ooh, wow! 150 Euro prize pool per month?

When it's split down, that'll be enough for the winner to...erm...buy a discounted game or get a pizza or something! Well worth putting a bunch of hours into, for sure.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Sounds okay I guess.

Perhaps they'd have put those hours in anyway, because they like the game?

 

[desertsession]

So did this get officially confirmed? Howcome I can sign up for the French league but no English one.

 

[RedAssedApe]

thought this has been around for awhile in EU.

yup this article was from a year ago.
