New Rocket League is using Unreal Engine 6

For context: This was apparently dropped at the Rocket League Paris Major today. A teaser for the future of Rocket League on a Sunday was not on my bingo card for the first official UE6 reveal. Nevertheless, this may be building up to a Summer Game Fest announcement, much the same way UE5 was revealed in 2020. Time will tell.
I'm still a bit perturbed that shortly after acquiring Psyonix, Epic killed off the native Linux client and pulled Rocket League from Steam. We had a great little community that got together on Saturday nights to play it.
Not pulled, just no new purchases on Steam. Existing owners like yourself can still use it and get updates: https://store.steampowered.com/app/252950/Rocket_League/
It works on Linux with Proton.
