How to Watch Rocket League (RLCS) in 2026

The Rocket League Championship Series — RLCS — is free to watch and builds all year toward a World Championship that, in 2026, lands in Texas. Here's where to follow it.

The short answer

RLCS streams free on Twitch (twitch.tv/rocketleague and twitch.tv/rlesports) and on the official YouTube channel. No subscription or account is required.

The 2026 season

The season runs through regional Opens and international Majors before the World Championship, with a total prize pool across the year of around $6.1 million. Major 2 was held in Paris in May.

The 2026 World Championship

The RLCS World Championship 2026 takes place at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas (September 15 – 20), bringing 20 teams together for a $1.2 million finale — a rare chance for US fans to watch the sport's biggest event in a friendly time zone, in person or on stream.

Rocket League at the Esports World Cup

Rocket League is also part of the Esports World Cup in Paris — a 16-team, $1 million event (Aug 12 – 16), streamed free on the EWC channels.
