"Rocket League" aims to better gaming on its multiplayer platform as it would now require a Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) before a trade would commence and ensure player-to-player interaction. The updated version 1.93 would also bring several bug fixes to the game, which would solve minor reports and cases that are present.
The popular car and football free-to-play game on various platforms, "Rocket League," is tightening on security, particularly with the Two-Factor Authentication that would need to be activated on one's account. The update would ensure that players could only trade with a fellow human being, and not a bot that could be misleading and scamming users.
The patch recently dropped earlier today, Feb. 15, and would be focused on bringing better gameplay for its users, particularly with bug fixes and removing several glitches found in the game. "Rocket League" is a highly-rated game that is available on most gaming platforms including the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Microsoft Windows, and Linux.
'Rocket League' Patch v1.93: Two-Factor Authentication, and MORE
According to Rocket League's patch notes for update v1.93, players would need to enable Two-Factor Authentication on their Epic Games account (which authenticates the game) to proceed with other transactions. These transactions are centered on player-to-player trading on the game, with different items and objects.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
- Starting with v1.93, players that want to participate in player-to-player trading must have 2FA enabled on their Epic Games Account
- As part of enabling 2FA, your Epic Games Account email must also be verified
- Learn how to enable 2FA on your Epic Games Account
- Learn how to upgrade a platform account to a full Epic Games Account
- The first trade you execute after enabling 2FA may take longer than normal to process (about 30 seconds). Subsequent trades should process normally
How to Enable Two-Factor Authentication via Epic Games
According to Epic Games' website, users would need to have the Epic Games client to enable two-factor authentication and access other features of the game.
- Go to the ACCOUNT page of the Epic Games Client
- Click PASSWORD & SECURITY
- Head to the TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION tab and click the authentication method that is preferred.
