Quake Champions Game Guide

Rocket Launcher

This is the Rocket Launcher. Most weapons require you to hit your opponents directly, but rockets explode when they hit anything, which can cause damage to nearby players, including you. While extremely common in direct encounters, being able to predict where an opponent might appear can give you the advantage in combat. Another great use for the rocket launcher is rocket jumping, an advanced movement technique that allows you to reach great heights for a surprise attacks or advanced level maneuvering.
