The upcoming Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) World Championship has found a home!
The Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) World Championship is returning back to Europe! With the RLCS 2022-23 World Championship looming near, Psyonix has finally revealed the location of the championship to be in Düsseldorf, Germany.
Düsseldorf is the capital city of North Rhine-Westphalia, located in western Germany and it is known as the fashion capital of Germany. As of now, Psyonix still hasn't announced the exact venue for the championship.
The announcement also gives us a little peek at what we assume to be the RLCS World Championship trophy designed by jewelry company Swarvoski. The beautiful trophy is made out of Swarovski aquamarine crystals. Psyonix has previously announced its partnership with Swarovski to create new trophies and medals for the RLCS 2022-23 season.
The previous RLCS World Championship took place in Fort Worth, United States in 2022. It's been a while since the World Championship took palce in Europe. The last time was in Madrid, Spain during the RLCS Season 8 World Championship in 2019.
When is the RLCS 2022-23 World Championship?
We will be seeing twenty-four teams from all around the world compete in the most prestigious Rocket League event of the season. They will be competing for a prize pool of $2,100,000 USD along with the title of World Champions.
The RLCS World Championship will be live on German soil in August 2023. There will be two events - the wildcard and the main event. The wildcard event will be a closed event and not open to the public. The dates for the events are as follows:
- Wildcard: August 3 - August 6
- Main Event: August 8 - August 13
After winning the RLCS Winter Major, Karmine Corp have become the first team to secure an event to the World Championship later this year.
Stitch your pockets and start saving! We are going to see the RLCS World Championship in Germany!
