Scroll down to your Epic Games connection and hit the orange Connect button:
Choose the correct option for how you sign in to your Epic Games account(Note: for some of the selections you will be directed to sign in using the account for your selection) then once you input information and connect, allow permission from PlayVS for your Epic Games display name.
To connect your Platform, follow the link under "Choose Platform" and sign in again with your Epic Games account. You will then be prompted to link your account connections to Epic Games ( the left most selection is for PC players)
After linking all of your accounts, click next. Select the platform you use to compete from left to right, PC through Epic Games, PC through Steam, PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, and Nintendo Switch. After you choose the platform, you will click preview and be prompted to ensure you know you are selecting this as your primary account. (Note: You can change your primary if you compete on a different platform in the future).
After hitting okay, you will be asked to confirm your selection. Once you confirm you can close out the Rocket League website and go back to your account connections on PlayVS. Go back to your Epic Games connection and use the drop down to select the Platform you just linked. (If linked correctly through Rocket League, it will display as activated. Note: for PC players you will select, Epic Games Account)
