Does that mean a one way platform transfer? Or does that mean that its full cross platform trading with the caveat of needing to own said platform?
It is not one way.

It is not one way.
Thanks for the example Corey! Very helpful . Would the same principle work for rocket pass?
2000 credits on switch. Buy rocket pass on switch. Get progress from playing on my PC ‘main’ account. (All linked to epic account)
Rocket Pass is different in that we use your Primary account's Rocket Pass progress and status.
So you would need to purchase RP on your Primary platform to access it everywhere.
How does this affect the workshop maps on Steam? If Steam is fully supported does that mean that all of the workshop maps are too? What about the creation of new ones in the workshop?
Workshop will continue to function as it has been on Steam.
For real. For anyone that is scamming items, $5 seems like a REALLY low bar to hop over to continue scamming.
This is actually a fairly common threshold, it's the same for Steam trading.

Do Alpha rewards count as platform exclusive items? Or can I use them on my PS4?
Alpha rewards are not platform exclusive
As an additional anti-fraud measure, we will also require both players involved in any trade to have purchased at least 500 Credits (players who played Rocket League before the launch of free to play are exempt from this requirement).
Is this limited to purchasing at least 500 credits worth of item(s) in-game (item shop / blueprints) or just purchasing at least 500 credits from your platforms store?
You must purchase at least 500 credits directly, you cannot unlock item shop content using traded credits to bypass this requirement.
So similar to satisfactory on Steam?

If you don't want to make an account, it just uses your public steam id to log you on.
I haven't played Satisfactory, but going off their FAQ:
Similar, but meaningfully different. They say very clearly they will not create an Epic Games Account to play online. For Rocket League, you will need an account, but we make it frictionless to get one, and we don't require any personal information.
Essentially, you end up with a "proxy" Epic Account that lets you use our services and is associated with your Steam profile, but doesn't know anything else about you (email, name, etc.).
Will existing Steam PC users, after creating their Epic Games account, be able to trade with new free-to-play users who are on Epic Games PC?
Our plan as of today is that PC users can trade with PC users, regardless of platform/launcher. We will let the community know if anything changes with that.
You will still have access to use the purchased DLC Packs on the platform where they were purchased. We are working to make Premium DLC accessible across platforms, but this will not be available when free to play launches.
Just to confirm because the caffeine hasn't kicked in:
I have premium DLC on PC (e.g. Batman, Back to the Future), and Xbox (Jurassic Park). At release, I won't be able to access Batman on Xbox and Jurassic on PC, but eventually that will be available, right?
Our goal is to make your Batmobile available on your Xbox and your Jurassic Jeep available on your PC, but yes, it will not function that way on day 1.
Usable, but not cross-platform-tradeable?
If they're tradable currently and not paid (like Blueprint items, Crate items, etc), they're tradable on any platform you link to.
What about your actual player rank. If i was level 700 on Xbox and level 300 on Steam will this combine to make my new level 1000?
What about your actual player rank. If i was level 700 on Xbox and level 300 on Steam will this combine to make my new level 1000?
No, your primary account will be your source of progression. So if you decide to make your Steam account your primary, you will have an XP Level of 300.
1) I can't tell if esports shop items are included under item shop purchases or not so could we get a confirmation that those items do transfer over?
2) So if my credits/tokens transfer over, can I buy items on the platform with the tokens and then use said items on a different linked platform?
Esports Shop Items are accessible from any linked platform, but cannot be traded to other players.
Credits do not transfer. But if you make a purchase, the items you get are accessible everywhere.
Example:
u/Psyonix_Corey This sounds great!
I'm in some kind of special situation and would appreciate, if you could confirm my thoughts:
I started on PC short after release (got S1 silver crown) and switched to PS4 after some time, where I have spent more than 4 years. Best rank was Diamond 1 on PS4, but I reached Level 733 there! A few month ago I went back to PC. The new Hardware (I guess) pushed me to Champ 2, which means I will get my very first Champion rewards on PC. The bad part is, that I'm only Level ~250 on PC. If I link my PSN and Steam to Epic and set my PSN as my primary account, will I get back to Level 733, can use my S1-Silver-Topper, can enjoy the "est. 2015"-Title and additionally use my first Champ-Rewards, even though I've never been Champ on my PS4 before? Edit: To be clear: I will continue playing on PC.
Thanks in advance!
Interesting scenario! In this case, if you link both to an Epic Games Account, and then set your PS4 as your Primary, you would be level 733, and your Rank would be Diamond I. However, with both accounts linked, you'll still have access to the Champ rewards you earned on PC whether you're playing on PS4, PC, or any other platform you link.
So if both my playstation and pc steam account have seperate inventories right now, I will be able to merge them if they are both linked to the epic games account? (except credits etc)
Also it says purchased items wont be able to be traded across platforms. If i trade credits for tw zomba on ps4 will i be able to trade those later on pc?
You will be able to access both inventories on any platform linked to your Epic Games Account. "Merged" isn't quite accurate, but both inventories appear combined when you're playing with linked accounts.
If you acquire a TW Zomba on PS4, it will not be tradable on Steam, because it is a paid item that was built/acquired on PS4.
all earned free items, well does this mean all non crate items can be traded cross platform, including the tw octane?
You cannot initiate a trade with a player signed in on another platform.
However, if you have a Titanium White Octane on your PS4 and link your Switch. You can launch the game on Switch and trade that Octane to another Switch user.
What does this mean for Alpha items on PC and Code redeemed wheels?
These are part of your online inventory on a platform, and will be usable on any other platforms you link to your Epic Games Account.
I assume if I linked a Steam, then unlinked it, then linked the 2nd, it wouldn't keep the inventory of the first, correct? It would only keep the inventory of the currently linked Steam?
The first Steam account's inventory would stay "with" the Steam account, meaning it would no longer be accessible from your Epic Account once de-linked.
Is there any insight if I NEED an Epic account to play from steam? As much as I want my stuff from xbox, I don't really care about it, I just wanna be able to keep playing from steam without having to link it to an Epic account first.
You will need an Epic Games Account to play on Steam. However, you don't have to create a full account with personal info like email & password. When you boot Rocket League, you'll be able to create a new account that's only associated with your Steam profile with one button press, no additional info/setup required.
What about other items like black markets on an old account? Can these be used on the primary (steam) if they're currently on xbox?
Yes.
If I understand this, it's a massive relief, as someone who moved after playing console for multiple years and has now played on Steam for more than a year.
So we can link Steam + Playstation/Xbox to an epic account, choose steam as primary platform and keep playing on steam. Getting access to season rewards, rocket pass items and event stuff from my old PS4 account on steam.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but this is a slam dunk, bring it on. Can't wait to get my S1 crown back.
This is accurate
