Here&#8217;s everything you need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocketleague.com\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Rocket League<\/a> is elevating its competitive scene in 2025 with the launch of the <em>Monthly Cash Cups<\/em>, a global tournament series featuring a total prize pool of over <strong>$390,000<\/strong> (~\u00a3294,514). This new initiative, developed in collaboration with tournament platform <a href=\"https:\/\/www.start.gg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Start.gg<\/strong><\/a>, runs from <strong>April through December 2025<\/strong> and is open to players of all skill levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Monthly Cash Cups are structured to be as inclusive as possible. Players from <strong>seven major regions<\/strong>\u2014Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), North America, Oceania, South America, and Sub-Saharan Africa\u2014can register and compete for real cash prizes. The prize pool will be split across regions, with allocations based on player participation and regional size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"937\" height=\"528\" src=\"https:\/\/tournova.games\/blog\/files\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-184.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4646\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tournova.games\/blog\/files\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-184.jpeg 937w, https:\/\/tournova.games\/blog\/files\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-184-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/tournova.games\/blog\/files\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-184-768x433.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What sets these cups apart is their diversity in <strong>game modes<\/strong>. While Rocket League is traditionally known for its 3v3 format, the Cash Cups will rotate through multiple styles, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1v1 (Solo)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2v2 (Duos)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>3v3 (Standard)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>3v3 Rumble (Power-up mode)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2v2 Hoops (Basketball-inspired mode)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This variety allows players with different preferences and skills to shine, from solo duels to chaotic power-up matches. For each event, the tournament format follows a <strong>double-elimination bracket<\/strong>, and teams are seeded based on their <strong>average rank<\/strong> when registration closes, ensuring fair and balanced matchmaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Players must register through <strong>Start.gg<\/strong>, where they are limited to competing in one region\u2019s Cash Cup per month. Participation is open across all platforms\u2014PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch\u2014so long as the player\u2019s Epic Games account is properly linked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 2025 schedule is already in full swing, with the <strong>first 1v1 tournament beginning April 22nd<\/strong> (April 21st for MENA). Subsequent tournaments will continue at the end of each month, alternating between game modes. The final event, a 3v3 tournament, wraps up the series in December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"936\" height=\"527\" src=\"https:\/\/tournova.games\/blog\/files\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-185.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4647\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tournova.games\/blog\/files\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-185.jpeg 936w, https:\/\/tournova.games\/blog\/files\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-185-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/tournova.games\/blog\/files\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-185-768x432.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 936px) 100vw, 936px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This initiative comes at a time when Rocket League esports is experiencing both growth and change. Following the recent <strong>RLCS Major in Birmingham<\/strong>, where Karmine Corp took home the trophy, attention now turns to the second Major in <strong>June<\/strong> at the <strong>Lenovo Center in Raleigh, North Carolina<\/strong>, with a prize pool of <strong>$351,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Monthly Cash Cups are a continuation of the momentum built by successful 2024 community tournaments like the <em>Offseason Opens<\/em> and <em>Champion\u2019s Road<\/em>. With regular, accessible tournaments and real incentives, Rocket League is providing a meaningful way for players around the world to engage with the competitive scene\u2014whether they\u2019re seasoned pros or ambitious newcomers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more details and to register for upcoming events, players can visit the official hub at <strong>Start.gg<\/strong> and stay updated via Rocket League\u2019s official channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the latest game tournaments and <a href=\"https:\/\/tournova.games\/blog\/category\/hot-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eSports news <\/a>via Tournova.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rocket League kicks off its 2025 Monthly Cash Cups in partnership with Start.gg, offering players worldwide a shot at over $390,000 in prizes across multiple game modes and regions.
