An absolute classic, Most Wanted is still widely considered the best game in the Need for Speed franchise. Crash cars, evade cops, and have a jolly ol' time in Need for Speed: Most Wanted... if you don't want to play Rocket League, that is. | © Electronic Arts
In the same way that Need for Speed: Most Wanted and Forza Horizon 5 take the soccer out of the car game, FIFA takes the car game out of soccer. It might be the obvious choice, and yes, FIFA games are not particularly great, but it can be a nice break if you want some soccer, but don't really feel like rocket-powered cars! © Electronic Arts
Okay, yes, this is cheating. Sideswipe is the mobile spin-off of Rocket League, and only just launched on both iOS and Android. It's basically exactly the same as Rocket League, but 2D and... portable. Yay! © Psyonix
If you want to dive into the origins of Rocket League, check out Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars.

Since it is basically just Rocket League v1.0, you can pretty much be assured that it is "like" Rocket League. Cheerio. © Psyonix
