Steam Deck & laptop compatibility

Great on Deck (estimated)

Rocket League performs well on Steam Deck. It is estimated to run at about 66 FPS on the Deck's native 1280x800 screen. This provides a fluid gameplay experience.

Achieving 60 frames per second at 1080p requires a laptop equipped with at least an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2050 Laptop GPU. For those seeking playable settings around 30 FPS, an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Laptop GPU would be sufficient. Laptop versions of these GPUs are generally slower than desktop cards.

Rocket League is Psyonix’s high-speed mix of soccer and vehicular combat, and it is built to run smoothly on a very wide range of hardware. The published minimum lists a 2.5 GHz dual-core CPU with a GeForce 760 or Radeon R7 270X and 4 GB of RAM, which is enough for 1080p at lower settings on modest systems.

The recommended specification calls for a 3.0 GHz or faster quad-core CPU with a GTX 1060 or RX 470 and 8 GB of RAM, targeting high frame rates that suit the game’s fast competitive play. Because the title now runs free-to-play through the Epic Games Store after leaving Steam, players value high and stable frame rates over visual fidelity, and modern hardware easily pushes well beyond 60 frames per second at high settings.
