While this covers what you should expect alongside the next Season, were not quite done with changes and additions to the Play Menu. Our goal in the first few months of 2024 is to give you even more influence over the modes that appear in the Arcade Playlist, which well talk about more in the new year. Along with new, different ways to play, were actively working on other quality-of-life improvements that touch on important community-driven topics, including smurfing and skill placement improvements. As we drive towards the next Rocket League Season and an exciting holiday season, expect to hear more on these changes and improvements in 2024. Thanks, everyone! |

[h2]Hip-Hop History[/h2] Hip-Hop leaped over social hurdles and censorship over the past 50 years, slowly growing into the cultural colossus of today. Constructed from a supreme combination of DJs, MCs, dancers, and artists, Hip-Hops roots began deep in the Bronx. It all started when talented turntablists began giving the neighborhood breakers a longer dance beat by looping a pair of records. With the crossfader in heavy use, these 70s block parties marked the nucleus of Hip-Hops creation. Fast forward to the 80s, and Hip-Hops popularity echoed through the streets. Radio play, record deals, and tape trading gave backyard MCs an avenue toward fame and fortune. With the funky West Coast and booming South gaining their voice, heavy beats and historic verses were dropping on a daily basis. By the end of the 90s, wed witness dozens of tracks hit number one on the charts. As the millennia turned, Hip-Hop was no longer a questionit was an answer. Sprawling sub-genres covered too much ground to measure, yet artists found new ways to electrify the airwaves (and dominate the underground scene) with every release. By the time we reached our digital age of instant releases and endless access, Hip-Hop's influence had expanded beyond all borders of music and geography. Even into the Rocket League Arena. Ready to spin the wheels of steel for yourself? The first release by Salt-N-Pepa is available now! |

[h2]Meet the Artist[/h2] Anthony Azekwoh is an artist whose work cannot be restrained by genre. As a growing fixture in Nigerias art world, he explores facets of digital painting, 3D sculpture, poetry, and short stories. Throughout it all is Anthonys approach toward human narrative, giving each work an abstract yet profound sense of emotion. Many of his works appear to break the fourth wall with their stare, accepting and acknowledging their viewers presence. During our collaboration, we got together and asked Anthony a few questions about his artwork, video games, and the experiences that fuel him. Q. In a couple of sentences, could you walk us through your journey and how you grew a career in the art industry? A. Sure, I started painting digitally seven years ago here in Lagos, Nigeria. At the time, all I had was a mouse and a beaten-up laptop, but I was really passionate about it, and I made it work. Painting after painting, year after year, I got better at my work and people started to pay attention. Q. Who has served as an inspiration in your life? And how did they inspire you? A. Artists like Duro Arts, Sam Spratt, and Duks Arts are some of the artists I've loved and admired. They inspired me by their work in the digital world, creating whole worlds for people to participate in. Q. Is there anything you wish that more people knew about your art? A. Right now, I wish more people saw the process and how much work and love I put in, so I'm trying to be more open with my process. The Blue Boy, The Tomorrow Woman, and The Traveller by Anthony Azekwoh Q. Your Rocket League Decal features Yasuke, a historical black samurai from the Sengoku Period in Japan. Could you tell us more about why his story connects with you? A. Yasuke was a very interesting one. It was at a point where I was reading and learning and trying to discover more about Africans and where we came from, and so Yasuke was an incredible find! Here he was, an African samurai, the first in recorded history. It was amazing to see and also paint in my whole visual language. Q. Youve recently been working much more in digital sculpture. Do you feel that youre able to express yourself differently in different mediums? A. Yes, of course. I try to use the medium to describe things that are great for that particular story. So, some things work better in different mediums and I try to respect that. Q. Throughout the years, youve worked in many different directions. What are you currently exploring with your art? A. Right now, I'm exploring sculptures and storytelling, trying to really pull at the threads of my own interest. Artist Anthony Azekwoh Q. Different people gravitate towards different types of games. Is there a genre of game that you find really speaks to you? A. Oh, I love open world games, they've always had my heart. Q. What do you think about video games as an interactive art form? A. I think they're a great way of interacting. I've recently gotten into Apex Legends, and it's brought me a bit closer to my friends and being part of a community. Q. What impact do you want your art to have on the world? A. I want people to have a deeper understanding of people who live and breathe outside their sphere of contact. My work is deeply African, pulling from being born and raised here. I want people to feel that culture, that power, that love. And be awed. We hope you enjoy Anthonys artwork in Rocket League.

[h2]Meet the Artist[/h2] One of the first things to note about Taj Francis is his expansive breadth of work. From design to animation, clothing, and public works, Taj uses a variety of mediums to explore anachronistic ideas of African ancestry. Many of his artworks tell part of a larger story, and a subtle but strong sense of world-building permeates his work. Nature and technology also feature heavily in his explorations, serving to inspire deeper introspection when the two are combined. We found time during our collaboration to ask Taj a few questions about his art, video games, and his life as an artist. Q. Could you walk us through your journey and how you cultivated a place in the art industry? A. The first "job" I ever had in the art industry was when I interned at my uncle's design studio for a short stint before going to art school. He's the one that encouraged me on this path honestly, so while in school, and after graduating, I cut my teeth on doing posters for reggae bands, making a clothing brand, and miscellaneous projects here and there. It really helped me to work out my own artistic style and focus on the type of work I wanted to create. With that, I got into doing exhibitions, mural art, and other projects for different companies. Azimuth, Offering, and Sun Engine. Part of the "Gilded Suns" series by Taj Francis Q. Your art transcends the canvas, and youve created many larger pieces like murals. What kind of energy do you bring to your art for each different medium? A. I've learned many things working in different mediums, and I'm still constantly learning. The things I learned doing acrylics, and digital paintings, I've applied to my mural work and vice versa. Working on large-scale murals comes with a level of planning that isn't typical for other types of work, but there is also a social aspect to it. People are seeing you create in real-time, which isn't normally the case when working in a studio, around other artists, or by yourself. It almost becomes like a performance piece in itself, so I think about the "audience" a little more than I would when painting on my own. It does feel like more pressure, but I learn from it and remember to adapt. Q. A lot of your work touches on black ancestry and history. Is this an overall message you feel your art explores or is each piece of art its own individual statement? A. Everything is a part of an overall message. I think there is so much to still say when it comes to works of black heritage and stories. There are so many stories to be told from even African and Black history, that popular media hasn't even scratched the surface of. So much lore, so much wonder that people wouldn't believe. I want to do my part in that, in giving the world more visuals, and stories that reflect a history that we haven't seen told. Unfortunately, a large part of our history is damaged due to colonialism, but I feel that even in a fictional sense, if we could tap into our histories and combine them with our imaginations, we could create something inspirational. We could see a world that has never been seen. Q. Is there a part of your artistic process that you enjoy the most? A. This might sound counter to the question, but the moment I love the most is when I decide that it's done. Sometimes an artwork is never really finished until you decide it is, and it's just the best moment for me. This is because you let go of the doubt, and you trust everything that you did up to that point. It's no longer in your hands. There is a joy at this moment that is incomparable to anything else during the whole process for me, and it's only possible because of everything that proceeds it. It's a feeling that can only be gained through actual time, work, and effort and I cherish that feeling so much. Artist Taj Francis Q. Different people gravitate towards different types of games. Is there a genre of game that you find really speaks to you? A. Wow, it's very hard to pick. I grew up playing a lot of multiplayer gamesit was one of the ways I've bonded with my brothers, so it has a strong place in my heart. But I also love single-player games. There is a solitude that I love from them. Honestly, I think more than a specific genre, I love games that combine the two in some ways. I've gotten a lot into soulslike games (I may or may not have spent the pandemic playing a lot of Fromsofts catalog) like "Bloodborne" and "Elden Ring", that are single-player but have an element of multiplayer with messages left from other players or even the ability to call for help. Especially "Death Stranding" that has asynchronous multiplayer, where other players leave helpful messages and tools, it fulfills that feeling of solitude, while also remembering you're not alone. Even so, nothing beats a good laugh playing multiplayer games, Rocket League gave me some of the best laughs even while losing miserably. Q. What do you think about video games as an interactive art form? A. I think games like "Journey" and "Inside" are some of the best pieces of art, in general and not just as a video game. There is a feeling you get from video games that you can't get from anything else, it's an irreplaceable medium. A large part of being a human, and being a person is enjoying life, touching it, and interacting with it. Video games give you a method of directly interacting with your own enjoyment, versus more passive engagement. If we think about books, sports, solving puzzles, these are things in line with our need to interact with and participate in our own enjoyment, games fall in line with these things. We enjoy art right, so why not also be an active participant in that enjoyment? We hope you enjoy Tajs artwork in Rocket League! Make sure to check out his [b]Instagram and Shop.

[h2]Meet the Artist[/h2] Geneva Bowers captures the world with her art through comics, children's books, and now Soccar! Mixing vibrant concepts with ethereal colors, her mystical illustrations breathe life into everyday scenarios. During our collaboration, we caught a moment to ask a few questions about her, her art, and her story. Q. Could you walk us through your journey and how you grew a career in the art industry? A. I will start at college. I dropped out after a year for a few reasons. I had no skills for anything other than drawing. But since that was all I could do, I was adamant about making a career doing art work. After reading a random users reply on a now-dead forum on the internet, I found out you dont need a degree for art. So I studied online from YouTube and blogs to get good enough to be hireable. I stumbled upon a huge chance from a tee design company that happened to work out very well! I still tried to improve my drawing and general skillset after work, though. After a few years, the freelance illustration I was doing on the side started outpacing my job, so I made the choice to go full freelance. Its worked out ever since. Voyage, Lucid Blade, and Grasp by Geneva Bowers Q. A lot of your artworks combine the mystic with the mundane. Could you speak to your connection with magic in the world? A. A lot of my art is just what-ifs. What if this electric tower was the same, but with a dragon on it? What if this windowsill was the same but with a dragon on it?? What if everyone was just, I dont know, thrust into the 90s and given a sword? We all have a daily routine we have to go through that can be mundane, and Im inspired a lot by general fantasy, so it sort of mushes together. Q. As a big fan of the magical girl genre, I cant help but ask about your webcomic, HoverGirls. What inspired you to take on a long-term project like this? A. Ive wanted to do a comic for a while, so Im thankful for the idea for HG! I grew up on VHS magical girls tapes and love poking at tropes, so this webcomic was a nice vehicle to steal from anime and show that love. HG has been picked up for publishing by Bloomsbury next year (2024) as well, with about 40% more story and basically all of the artwork redone. The webcomic will always be up online, though. Also, an aside: As a person who illustrates a lot of books and covers mostly for teens, I really wanted a story to exist where the story wasnt just about being black or a person of color. For lack of a better phrasing, there are a lot of black struggle stories/major plot points that are important, yes, but I seldom saw or was hired for anything that was just a story where the main characters happen to be POC or black and it wasnt centered around that fact. The characters in HG are just vibing in their established characteristics, and this is the silly predicament that they happen to be thrust into. Artist Geneva Bowers Q. What do you think about video games as an interactive art form? A. Games are an incredible art form. It brings together most of the senses, and you can interact with it all on top of that! I especially admire games from the PS1/PS2 era, with all the tricks pulled to present this package of sensory art in such a tight amount of data/space. You can tell when something just has a lot of love and thought put into it. Q. Different people gravitate towards different types of games. Is there a genre of game that you find really speaks to you? A. Roguelikes and rogue-lites. I cannot get enough. The randomizations, restarts, dungeons, and loot are the ultimate dopamine hits for me. I immediately smother any other game of a different genre that has roguelike elements. Q. What impact do you want your art to have on the world? A. I just want people to be happy, really. Theres so much going on all the time. So I just want people to see rep of themselves and maybe feel a little more at ease for the day. We hope you enjoy Genevas artwork in Rocket League! Make sure to check out her [b]Instagram and shop.

[h2]INSIDE THE MUSIC[/h2] Drag has been an important, inclusive method of self-expression during Pride going back to the events formative years. The art form has grown through the decades, with many modern queens reaching pop-star-level popularity. Lets look at the majestic artists featured this month! Trixie Mattel is one of the worlds premiere plasticine queens with a look as playful as her namesake. The multi-talented singer of Hello, Hello is best known for an electric personality both in and out of drag. Trixies upcoming album, The Blonde & Pink Albums comes out on June 24 and can be pre-saved here. After appearing on American Idol, drag artist Adore Delano found further fame on Ru Pauls Drag Race. A good-old-fashioned lip synch will never go out of style, but Adores performances have instead showcased their serious singing abilities. Before the meteoric rise of drag in the late 2010s, Conchita Wurst made worldwide headlines for winning 2014s Eurovision contest with her song Rise Like a Phoenix. Today this bearded diva sells out shows across the world. After his appearance on American Idol, Todrick Halls dance hit Lover Boy certified him as a staple of any clubs playlist. An incredibly prolific singer, choreographer, and YouTuber, this Broadway star is the definition of a triple threat. Claim the Shine Through Bundle for free June 15 - July 12. |

*Note: The Nissan Z Performance Car cannot be customized with certain item types. Car colors will be locked to either red or blue when using the Nissan x FaZe Clan Decal. [h2]NISSAN EVENTS[/h2] That new car smell is drifting all the way to the Esports Arena, where Nissan is sponsoring several thrilling events. On May 27 - 29, join us to watch the Nissan Classic RLCS NA Regional featuring the very best that NA has to offer. A couple of weeks later, Nissan is going back to school to present the CRL World Championship on June 3 - 5. As a true supporter of the arts, Nissan will also be our presenting sponsor of the CRL Fall 2022 Season! Last, but possibly most hype, Nissan Crew Battles on May 26th! This exciting event will be hosted by the First Touch Podcast boys Roll Dizz and Dazerin, with special co-host Johnnyboi. Teams of RLCS pros will play 3v3, 2v2, and 1v1 matches for their piece of the $25K prize pool. Watch it all live on Twitch! The Nissan Z Performance Bundle will be available May 26 - June 7. |
Hello everyone! 2022 is flying by, and were into the second half of Season 6. We hope your competitive grind and tournament matches are going well, and that youre getting close to Pro Tier territory in Rocket Pass. It was great to see so many of you in Los Angeles for the sold-out RLCS Winter Major, and we hope our friends in Europe will join us for the Spring Major in July. And for our Rocket League Sideswipe fans, be sure to brush up on the Season 3 Rewards here!
Weve also read through a ton of conversation related to Season 6 since its start in March. While we arent committing to specific changes, we want to acknowledge a few key pieces of feedback many of you have shared with us:
Since a lot of this blog touches on player feedback, we want to highlight two threads posted during Season 6 that were using to drive changes in Season 7:
Theres been a healthy amount of conversation around game servers recently as well. While server performance is something were always tracking, the best way to help us improve server quality over time is to use the Report Server button in the game client. The more hits we receive through the report function, the more information we have to act on. As we mentioned in the last Community Update, we are closely watching the new expanded player report reasons. At this time, multiple ban systems are in the works with the intention of handling reports for 'Match Throwing or Griefing' and 'Intentionally Idle'. In order for these systems to help create the best in-game experience, it is vital that players continue to report bad behavior. The more reports we receive, the better we can understand the kind of behavior that prevents Rocket League from being a safe, positive place to play. Finally, lets talk about voice chat. We want to thank everyone for your patience, and were incredibly happy to have voice chat back in the game, meeting our original goal of turning it on during Season 6. Integrating the new voice chat system into Rocket League, which ties in with our party system, Epic Online Services, as well as parental controls for younger player accounts, was no small effort, and were excited to hear your feedback over the coming weeks. Make sure you check out the v2.15 patch notes if you have any questions regarding voice chat functionality. As always, keep the feedback coming on Reddit and in our Discord server, and good luck with the rest of the season! |

Starting May 24, all of your favorite Premium DLC items that were purchased prior to the launch of Free To Play will be cross-platform in Rocket League!
Some content cannot make the cross-platform journey, including:
For our players on Nintendo Switch, we are not able to fully support cross-platform Premium DLC on the console at this time. You will be able to use Premium DLC owned on other platforms, but items owned on your Nintendo Switch cannot be used elsewhere. This is something we are still pursuing with Nintendo, as we want players to be able to use licensed cars and items across every platform. |
F1 items are live NOW in the item shop! |

There's a new way to get Items for your inventory in Rocket League! Starting today, new item packs can be found in the "Bundles" tab in the Item Shop. These new bundles will feature items with a similar theme and are a great value compared to picking up each item individually. The three bundles will be available to browse and purchase for a limited time.
[h2]AUDACIOUS MOVES 1000 CREDITS[/h2]
[h2]PLAYING WITH FIRE 3000 CREDITS[/h2]
Remember, items purchased in the Item Shop cannot be traded to other players and are ineligible for trade-in. Check out these three new bundles today, and be on the lookout for new bundles in the future. |

If you've been keeping a keen eye on Rocket League Esports content, you may have come across one of the newest podcast series, First Touch. The show helmed by Demar "Dazerin" Williams, Raul "Roll Dizz" Diaz, and Tyler "TBates" Bates has quickly become one of the most rambunctious and informative podcasts about Rocket League Esports.
[h2]MORE TO COME[/h2] We're excited to get First Touch underway next week! Make sure to tune in on Monday, March 15, at 10 a.m. PDT (5 p.m. UTC) for Episode 1. Be on the lookout for more updates and content surrounding the show in the future. We'll see you in chat on Monday! |

[h2]SUPERSONIC LEGEND TITLE REWARDS[/h2]
Enjoy the extra week to hit those new Ranks! [h2]WHAT'S HAPPENING TO SEASON 2 TOURNAMENT CREDITS?[/h2] Once Season 2 ends, your Tournament Credit balance will reset, which is similar to the end of Season 1. Existing Tournament Credits will convert to All-Star Cups. Players who have participated in a Competitive Tournament and have between 0-12,000 Tournament Credits will receive one All-Star Cup. Players who have more than 12,000 Tournament Credits will receive additional All-Star Cups depending how many Tournament Credits they have. See below for the breakdown.

The Ignition Series is the latest collection of new in-game items coming to Rocket League, and it's set to arrive this week! Expect to see these items in the wild beginning on March 11, the day after the March Update. |
Rocket League is getting ready to spring forward in March with the March Update. The update will be live on all platforms on March 10 at 10 a.m. PDT (5 p.m. UTC). Here's everything you can expect on release day:
Controls
Interface
Dynamic Range Controls For Game Audio We added HDR Audio to Rocket League in August's Season 12 Update, but soon you'll have even more control over the sound of the game. The March Update will add Dynamic Range Presets. In the "Audio" tab within the options menu, you'll find a new dropdown menu that contains Dynamic Range Presets. Here's how those presets will affect the game's audio:
Medium will provide the most balanced audio mix for headphone users, and is a similar profile to the game's current mix.
Low is designed for listening at very low levels. Loud sounds become quieter and quiet sounds become louder, and we also remove some sounds that are less important. We do not recommend using this setting on high-fidelity systems or when playing Rocket League at high volume.
This is the best mix for those who play Rocket League at high volume or with high-quality sound systems. Loud sounds will be more vibrant and explosive, and quiet sounds like crowd noise and ambience will be less overpowering, helping to add a more dynamic experience. Final Update for Mac and Linux The March Update will be the final update for Mac and Linux versions of Rocket League. If you have played the game on MacOS or Linux, you can request a refund through Steam. All refund requests must be received by June 10, 2020. Visit our support article for more information on functionality and refunds. The March Update is also bringing a new Series of items to Blueprints and the Item Shop. Stay tuned next week for the full reveal. There's more coming to Rocket League in the coming weeks, so stay tuned as we get new content locked and loaded for later this spring! Until then, good luck and have fun! |
At Psyonix, we take the safety of our competitive players, fans, and personnel very seriously. Due to worldwide health concerns surrounding the developing situation around the Coronavirus (COVID-19), we are cancelling the Rocket League Season 9 World Championship live event as scheduled from April 24-26 in Dallas, Texas. We understand that this is frustrating, but health and safety will always be our top priority. |
It's time for a refresh to the featured training packs, and it's just in time for the end of Competitive Season 13. Whether your Dream Rank is Gold, Platinum, or even the elusive Grand Champion rank, be sure to hit these training packs hard to step up your game. |
It's hard to believe that the first Competitive Season of 2020 is winding down, but its ending on March 25! Then, Season 14 begins that very same day. So, without further ado, here are the rewards for Competitive Season 13.
COMPETITIVE SEASON 13 GRAND CHAMPION REWARDS
(Note: Grand Champion In-Game Titles for Extra Modes are earned by achieving Grand Champion Rank in each individual Extra Mode) Season 13 will end roughly two hours before Season 14 begins on March 25. Rocket Pass 5 will come to a close the same day, so make sure to complete those last-minute Challenges before then! There's still time to hit your dream rank this season, so jump into your Competitive Playlist of choice and get those wins! Good luck out there! |

Since the Blueprint Update release last week, we have pored over all of your comments on Discord, Reddit, Twitter, and beyond. We have heard your feedback that Item Shop and Blueprint pricing did not meet community expectations. After carefully reviewing all the data available to us, we're making the following changes, starting today:
Item Attributes Paint and Special Editions now add less cost across the board, based on rarity:
Occasionally, special items will have custom pricing that varies from the above guidelines. For in-game purchases made between December 4 and December 11 (today) at 12:00 p.m. PST (8:00 p.m. UTC) we will add Credits equal to any difference in price directly to your account. For example, purchasers of Crimson Fennec will receive 500 Credits back today, as a Crimson Fennec now costs 700 instead of 1200 Credits. This price adjustment is a one-time only event, and only applies to purchases made between December 4 and December 11. These Credit returns will be complete within the next few hours. There will be no in-game display explaining this change. Players with any questions or concerns about recent purchases may contact our Customer Care team. We always take feedback from our passionate community seriously, and we hope that this change in pricing reflects that. As always, thank you for being part of what makes Rocket League what it is today. To see what else is included in todays update, check out the patch notes here. |

Following next month's update, all Premium DLC Packs will no longer be available for purchase. If you already own any items from the DLC Packs, you will still have those items in your inventory. Items from Premium DLC Packs may return for individual sale in the Item Shop at a later date. As for Esports Shop Items, those will still have their own space in the Esports Shop tab and will continue to be available for Esports Tokens. Between Blueprints and the Item Shop, there's a lot of new content coming to Rocket League in the next month. We hope you've been keeping up with all the latest info and you're ready to take to the field in December and the new year! |
Rocket League, Monstercat, and Beat Saber, the hit music/rhythm virtual reality game, have joined forces for a siiick collab with in-game content available now in both games. Select songs from Rocket League are now live in Beat Saber with the Rocket League x Monstercat Music Pack. Plus, free in-game items inspired by Beat Saber are now available in Rocket League!
The sounds of Rocket League are best when they're blasting in a soccar arena. That's why a Champions Field-inspired Map has come to Beat Saber! Slash your way through beats in this brand new, custom made Rocket League-inspired environment! Rocket League has cued up two new customization items (a Topper and Boost) featuring the beat blocks from Beat Saber. Just log into Rocket League now to get them as a celebration for our sick beats being part of the VR smash hit! The Rocket League x Monstercat Music Pack is now available for $8.99 or regional equivalent on Steam, Oculus Store, and PlayStation Store, so turn up in Rocket League and Beat Saber now! |
Not Tradable:
What's happening to Decryptors? Once Crates leave the game, Decryptors will no longer be offered. Decryptors from your inventory will be converted into "Bonus Gifts," which can be opened at no cost. Bonus Gifts will contain items from the Vindicator Crate series and first Blueprint Series, the "Revival" Series, that will bring back some fan-favorite items throughout Rocket League's history. We'll reveal everything in the Revival Blueprint Series closer to the update. Trade-Ins Following the update, only free items obtained via post-game drops will be eligible to trade in. Free Rocket Pass items will remain ineligible for trade ins. We hope this sheds more light on the Blueprint system coming next month. Stay tuned later this month for a full reveal of the new Item Shop! |

It's hard to believe we're speeding into 2020, and it's even harder to believe that Rocket League is now approaching its fifth birthday! Throughout those years, the team here at Psyonix has endeavored to improve the core experience for both competition and customization, but we still believe the game has room for even more growth. MORE TO COME That's not everything! Rocket Pass 5 will begin in early December, following the end of Rocket Pass 4. Prepare for a full reveal for all Rocket League senpais closer to launch. Plus, the Item Shop and more info on Blueprints will be revealed next month too, so stay tuned! |

There are just 10 seconds left in a tied game. Your teammate has possession, and passes it your way from the wall. You place the shot above the backboard where your opponent can't reach it, launch your car into the air with your remaining boost and follow up the backboard shot with a perfectly placed goal. The Goal Explosion ignites as time expires. The exhilaration is nearly tangible. But meanwhile, there are hundreds of sound effects occurring inside the game that supplement all the excitement of the moment: the siren, the announcer, the crowd, and that only scratches the surface. In moments like this, it may be easy to overlook the sound of Rocket League, but these sounds are an essential part of the experience. |
With Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) Season 7 in the rearview mirror, that means it's time to refresh the featured Training Pack Browser. While the previous pack featured creations from RLCS pros and former pros, this new collection has been hand-picked by Psyonix and should help several different facets of your game. |
Two new stats are being added to all game modes: High Five and Low Five. Pull off a High Five by hitting your teammate in midair after scoring. Low Five is the same thing, but on field level. Plus, Hoops is getting its own new stat called "Swish." As the name suggests, Swish is achieved by scoring without the ball touching the rim. We're in the planning stages of our third installment of Haunted Hallows, which is coming this fall. We know that following Radical Summer is a tough act to follow, but we're cooking up some wicked new content! One of the goals in 2019 is to revamp Rocket League's Tournament system. Think of it as Tournaments 2.0. This would include having automated, scheduled tournaments in-game that players could join. Look out for more info on the revamped Tournaments system later this year. Content that was discussed in May's Roadmap including the Party-Up System, Inventory Management, and quality-of-life improvements to the player-to-player trading system are still in development. The goal is to roll out this functionality later in 2019. |
Don't touch that remote! The '80s Television phase of Radical Summer is now live, and the iconic vehicle, K.I.T.T., is now available in the Knight Rider Car Pack! |

Last but certainly not least, comes our biggest news of the yearthat Psyonix and Rocket League officially joined the Epic Games family in late Spring! We couldn't be more thrilled to join forces with the same team that created Fortnite, Unreal Tournament, and the foundation on which Rocket League was builtthe Unreal Engineto ensure that we can bring you bigger and better things for years and years to come. With the expanded resources and support that Epic Games provides, we are confident that Rocket League's reach and potential will soar to levels we couldn't have previously imagined. One last thing before we go (and we know we say it every year, but that's because it's true): ALL of Rocket League's continued success is because of YOUour fans and our community. Your support, your passion, and your dedication is incredibly important to us, and we hope to make you proud, keep you happy, and (hopefully) continue to surprise you in the best possible ways. On behalf of the entire Psyonix team, thank you so much for another great year of Rocket League! Now let's take a look at what we've accomplished together, in the graphic below Respectfully yours, -- Psyonix |
|
We hope you're totally stoked for Radical Summer's Culture phase, and the limited-time game mode, Spike Rush. From all of us at Psyonix, thank you for being the best rocket-powered fans for the past four years and counting, and best of luck getting those siiiick Painted items you've been looking for! |

Plus, Golden Eggs are back as part of Radical Summer, and this time will contain items from Elevation, Victory, Turbo, and Nitro Crates. Up to five Golden Eggs can be acquired for each phase of the event. Ecto-1 and K.I.T.T. enter the arena Radical Summer will start and end with two new Premium Licensed DLC with the Ghostbusters Ecto-1 and Knight Rider Car Packs. Get ready to go ghost hunting in the Ecto-1. The Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Car Pack will include a bunch of fan-favorite items from the iconic Ghostbusters, which is celebrating its 35th Anniversary, including the Ecto-1 Battle-Car, Ecto-1 Wheels, Proton Pack Rocket Boost, Slimer Topper, Ghostbusters Player Banner and Avatar Border, and the Stay Puft Goal Explosion. K.I.T.T., the high-speed, talking futuristic car outfitted with high-tech gadgets and a personality of its own from the hit '80s show Knight Rider, is reporting for duty and will come as part of its own Car Pack later in Radical Summer! The Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Car Pack will be available for $1.99 (or regional equivalent) on June 10. Stay tuned for more info on the Knight Rider Car Pack later during Radical Summer. New Limited Modes The Radical Summer party starts on the field with three new limited-time game modes that will be featured individually throughout the event. To celebrate the arrival of Ghostbusters' Ecto-1 Battle-Car, jump into the new wickedly spooky Ghost Hunt Mode. Ghost Hunt, which will be featured in the Blockbusters phase of Radical Summer, is a 3v3 mode where each team uses their proton stream power-ups to try to trap the ghostly ball in your opponents' Containment Zone. Ghost hunt features new, scary lighting and ghostly sound effects on the Urban Central Arena and will be playable until July 1. Kicking off Radical Summer's Culture phase will be the high-octane Spike Rush mode. In this 3v3 mode, each player has the Spike power-up from Rumble Mode that can be activated to carry the ball, and deactivated to pull off some wild psych outs. It all goes down on our Throwback Stadium Arena to commemorate Rocket League's fourth anniversary. Hit the beaches of Salty Shores to close out Radical Summer in our Beach Ball Mode. Beach Ball Mode features 2v2 action with a larger ball, low ball gravity, and the Curveball mutator activated. So enjoy this sunny, feel-good mode that is worthy of a classic '80s beach volleyball montage. Here are the start and end dates of Radical Summer's three event phases. Each phase will begin at 10 a.m. PDT (5 p.m. UTC) on their respective start dates:
A game update will be ready for download today at 10:00 a.m. PDT (5:00 p.m. UTC) that will get everything ready for Radical Summer next week. We're excited to share everything that we've packed into this event. Stay tuned for even more info on the next phases of Radical Summer. Until then, stay rad! |

GRAND CHAMPION REWARDS
You still have a few more weeks left in Season 10 to hit your goals. Remember, you have to complete your placement matches in a Competitive Playlist and fulfill the appropriate Season Reward Level in order to earn your rewards for Competitive Season 10. Competitive Season 11 will have the same soft reset that previous competitive seasons have had. You will need to complete 10 placement matches per Competitive Playlist to earn your rank, which will likely be near your previously held rank. If you're still working on reaching that next rank, be sure to bring your A-game to get those wins before May 13 when Season 10 ends and Season 11, begins. As always, good luck and have fun! |

Well be sure to share the full patch notes once the Friends Update goes live on February 19 at 10:00 a.m. PST / 6:00 p.m. UTC on all platforms. In-Game Event Canceled and Replaced You may recall that we also mentioned an upcoming In-Game Event in last months Roadmap that was planned for the February update. Unfortunately, due to multiple factors behind-the-scenes, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our original plans and focus on another In-Game Event later in the year instead. Please accept our sincerest apologies for the cancellation. To make it up to you, we'd like to give everyone the opportunity to get lots of cool in-game stuff via a weekend of combined Double XP AND Double Painted drop-rates starting March 7. The event will last four days and end on March 11. We hope you enjoy the extra drops and XP and hope to see you join us for the weekend! |

Remember, Competitive Season 8 will end roughly one hour before the Season 9 Update goes live -- we’ll share the exact timing on Twitter -- so be sure to lock in your top Rank and Season Reward Level before it’s too late. Thanks, everyone! |
https://youtu.be/QkEH61jcWBg |
Remember, in order to be eligible for Season 8 Reward items, you must complete placement matches in a Competitive Playlist AND fulfill the appropriate Season Reward Level(s). You can learn more about Season Reward Levels here. Additionally, any account found to be abusing the matchmaking system may lose out on Season 8 Rewards entirely. Season 9 Details Our next update marks the beginning of one of our most exciting Competitive Seasons to date! Extra Modes (formerly known as Ranked Sports) are coming to Competitive for the first time ever! Rumble, Dropshot, Hoops and Snow Day are all being converted to Competitive Playlists -- 2v2 for Hoops and 3v3 for the other Playlists -- found under the new ‘Extra Modes’ tab in the Playlist Menu. Similar to Competitive Soccar, you will have a unique MMR in each Playlist where you’ll need to complete ten placement matches for each before obtaining a Rank. All of the same Competitive rules (forfeiting, matchmaking bans, etc.) will still apply as well. How are Rewards going to work with these changes? Extra Mode wins will contribute to the same Season Reward Level as your Soccar matches. For those putting serious time in with Extra Modes, we’re also considering additional Season Rewards like Extra Mode-specific Grand Champion titles. Alongside these additions to Competitive play, Rumble, Dropshot, Hoops and Snow Day will no longer appear as Casual Playlist options. (You can still use these modes in Private Matches, Local Matches, and Tournaments.) Due to population split, keeping Extra Modes in both Casual and Competitive could lead to great difficulty finding matches -- something we want to avoid for their inaugural Competitive Season. Want to play Extra Modes without worrying about Competitive Ranks? We’re giving you the option to hide your Rank for these modes so you can maintain a more casual mentality while playing. We hope you’re as excited for these Rewards and changes as us -- we can't wait to see the boxing gloves, tiles, basketballs and hockey pucks fly this coming season! Be sure to share your thoughts on the Extra Modes changes on Twitter, Discord and the Subreddit. |

Want to queue up for a Casual or Competitive Playlist Match with some of your Club members? Then don't worry, you’ll still party up and queue as you normally would. If your whole party is part of your Club and your opponents are all members of their own club, we activate a Club Match. In this mode, the stadium colors will change to each Club's Primary color, and the team names will update to reflect your Club names. If your colors are too similar, we'll randomly pick one team to use their Secondary color or a safe neutral option. How does Club ownership work? Only current Club Owners can designate a new owner if they decide to leave or step down from the leadership position. Additionally, a Club Owner has to step down before they can fully leave a Club -- we don’t want any leaderless Clubs roaming the Wasteland, now do we? (Note: This may be the first place you run into our new real-time language filtering, as Rocket League and PsyNet will be actively filtering out some inappropriate Club Names and Tags during the creation phase.) Looking to join a Club instead of starting your own? The Club Owner is the only person who can invite you in. To receive an invite, Party up with the Owner and you’ll see a pop-up notification once it’s sent. Clubs can have up to 20 members, Owner included. Club Participation in Online Matches and Tournaments When playing online in Casual or Competitive Matches or in Tournaments with your Clubmates, you’ll Party up with them as you normally would and the Party Leader will queue your group up for matches. You can still play in every type of online match with players outside of your club as well, so you can mix and match away! We’re not tracking Club-level stats at this time, so shots, saves, wins, losses, and so on won’t have any additional effect on your account or Club. Verified Clubs While anyone with a copy of Rocket League can create or join a Club, Verified Clubs will be reserved for Esports organizations in RLCS and Rivals Series, friends of Rocket League and Psyonix and notable community members and influencers. We’ll be reaching out to these groups and individuals directly about verification in the coming weeks. FAQ Can I be in more than one Club at once? Your account can only be in one Club at a time. I don’t want to own this Club anymore, what should I do? No problem! You can transfer ownership to another member by selecting their name on the Club screen and selecting the transfer option from the drop-down menu. How do I get my Club Verified? At this time, we’re reaching out to groups and individuals directly about verification. My Club is Verified. What happens if I change the Club Name or Tag? Changing the Name or Tag will cause the Club to lose its Verified status. Where can Club Matches occur? Club Matches can occur in Casual or Competitive Playlist matches. They do not occur in Private Matches or Tournaments. |
What about Rocket Pass and RocketID? Rocket Pass will go live the week after the Progression Update is released -- be on the lookout for an in-game countdown once we’re closer to the launch! As for RocketID and Cross-Platform Parties, we’re still on track to release it before the end of September, as outlined in our latest Roadmap Update blog. In the meantime, let us know what you think of Clubs on Twitter and the subreddit! Oh, and did we mention we have an official Discord server now? Head on over to discord.gg/rocketleague and join us and over 60,000 Rocket League players. You’ll be able to talk with the devs, ask questions and find plenty of passionate, awesome RL enthusiasts to team up with -- just in time for Clubs, as a matter of fact. Thanks, everyone! |

We’re still working on evolving this system as we strive to keep Rocket League a fun, all-ages-friendly environment. That will include adding real-time language filtering that we believe will make an appearance later this year. We'll keep you updated when we have more to share! |

The DC Super Heroes DLC Pack arrives on March 5 for USD $3.99 or regional equivalent. The DLC requires a copy of Rocket League to use and game is sold separately, so make sure you have what you need before you pick the new pack up!

EDIT: Wow that was fast! Our Friends List is already full. Thank you to everyone who acted so quickly! |
The Mini Update is only targeting a few issues on our radar, while our Spring (March/ April) Update will contain additional bug fixes for multiple platforms. Season 7 Placement Matches We’re a little over a week into Season 7 and many of you have completed your placement matches. We’ve seen some feedback on our soft reset format and we don’t want you to feel there’s unnecessary chaos during placements. With new seasons, we increase your ability to change ranks after the reset and this will naturally cause you to run into some players who were previously above or below your rank. This is totally normal and gives everyone a chance to recalibrate. That said, we do handle Champion ranks and above a little differently, and we wanted to dig into that reasoning a little bit here. We clamp the skill of Champions and above down to a skill ceiling between seasons around Diamond 3 / Champion 1 and let them climb back to higher ranks during placement and beyond. This measure is necessary to keep the top end of the skill curve manageable and to avoid it inflating season over season. This does cause some churn at those ranks that we’re discussing how to mitigate for future seasons. In the short term, this up-and-down is temporary and should settle sooner than later. Season 6 Rewards Speaking of Competitive Seasons, our Season 6 Wheels were sent out with the February Update to all of you who qualified for Rewards. Keeping in line with previous seasons, we also revoked these Wheels from a number of accounts that were found to be abusing the matchmaking system. Matchmaking abuse may include boosting, being boosted by another player, win-trading, and other irregular activity. [video]https://media.giphy.com/media/p3hZ9tfVJAavjx9Abw/giphy.mp4[/video] Diamond Wheels and Tsunami Beam Boost Of course we saved the best news for last! First, we’re making a change with the Tsunami Beam Boost that came with the Victory Crate last week. After the February Update went live, we realized that Tsunami Beam had a chance of dropping with the Cobalt paint color. As Cobalt Tsunami Beam is very close to the original, we are removing all Cobalt-Painted Tsunami Beams and replacing them with Sky Blue-Painted variants. This will be automatic, will happen regardless if you received it as a drop or via trade, and is happening right now. Next, we’re happy to share the update we’re making to the Season 6 Diamond Wheel! We’ve taken in your feedback and addressed the Wheel’s look accordingly -- take a look at the Wheel below and let us know what you think on the Subreddit and on Facebook or Twitter. Thank you, and enjoy the Tournaments Beta next week! |

In a month packed with Rocket League history, we saw the first-ever player to claim back-to-back RLCS World Championships (that would be Turbopolsa, btw, congratulations to him!) and our official release on Nintendo Switch! While our last Community Spotlight put Rocket League pro players center-stage, we’re shifting gears this month to focus on giving new Rocket League players, particularly those playing on the Switch, a solid ‘Custom Training’ foundation for practice.
If you want to catch the pro player-made ‘Custom Training’ packs list, then jump over to last month’s Community Spotlight for a glimpse at the RLCS training regimen! |
Once a ban expires you will stay at that ban level for 12 hours, but if you leave another Competitive Playlist match during the same window, you will go up one level. If you don't leave any Competitive matches early during the same 12-hour window, you will go down one level, eventually going back down to Level 0. You’ll still see the same kind of notifications with the new system, so active bans will appear at the bottom of the Playlist window. If you reach Level 7 (Wow!) and consistently leave Competitive matches before a match concludes, we may take additional actions against your account, including timed or permanent bans from all online matches. We hope these changes will cut down on the number of players who duck out of Competitive matches early. Who knows, by sticking around until the timer hits 0:00 instead of making for the Main Menu, you might just get a few Reddit-worthy comeback wins under your belt. |

To our outspoken, dedicated community members, THANK YOU as always for your feedback. We hope you enjoy the new banners and the rest of this week’s massive update! In case you missed the original Banners, check out the 'Dragon' Player Banners below. |

The massive, FREE Autumn Update is coming on September 28! |

Remember, in order to qualify for these Banners, you must earn the 12 wins for each Season Reward Level. Players who are in the Platinum Tier, for example, must earn Season Reward Level wins for Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum in order to receive all four Reward Banners. We hope you enjoy the new Banner items, and we’ll have more to share closer to the Autumn Update’s release! (NOTE: Parallel with our efforts at the end of Seasons 3 and 4, we will deny Season 5 Rewards to any account involved with matchmaking abuse or boosting services.) |

Not only will this weekend mark the first official broadcast for the RLCS Season 4, but it also marks the return of Fan Rewards to the RLCS! Be sure to link your account before watching to be eligible for Fan Rewards. To all teams heading to the pitch this weekend: we wish you the best of luck! We’ll be watching closely to see which new contenders are in the mix for RLCS Season 4. As always, THANK YOU for the continued support of Rocket League Esports and we can’t wait to kick off the action! |

After thorough discussion of the above points, your feedback, and analysis of the data gathered from our Map Preferences system, we decided to focus on Standard Arenas going forward. We aren’t willing to force the adoption of non-Standard Arenas in professional competition, and we want a consistent set of rules and interactions for our entire community -- from 'Bronze I' rookies all the way up to those playing in the RLCS World Championship. While we still value the variety that non-Standard Arenas brought to the map rotation, we no longer think the benefits outweighs the downsides they bring. We apologize to those who will be disappointed with this change but, ultimately, we have to act in what we think are the best interests of the game and the community at large. More than two years and 35 million players later, THANK YOU for continuing to play and support Rocket League. Your continued feedback is more important now than ever before. |

Rocket Boosts
As with many Painted items, not every color will be available for every boost. Paints that are too close to the default color for a Rocket Boost are excluded from dropping, though fans of the Standard boost will be happy to know that “Crimson” Standard Boost is indeed available. Exotic Items If you’re willing to give up five of the new Import items we detailed above, you’ll receive an Exotic Painted Wheel. Painted editions of classic Wheels will no longer infrequently drop at Uncommon quality, but will instead be drops at the Exotic tier. The Wheels available in this Trade-In expansion include:
Existing Painted copies of the aforementioned wheels will remain Uncommon, but all-new copies obtained via the Trade In system will be Exotic. The Trade-In expansion still uses the rules as the previous system, so items you trade in will all need to be from the same Crate Series, or they would all need to come via online drops. Looking Ahead In the interest of full disclosure, we do plan to add new items at Rare and Very Rare qualities in the next major game update to add more diversity to the free item drop pool. While we can’t go into detail about these items just yet, you may want to consider carefully before liquidating your entire Uncommon and Rare inventory. |

Looking Ahead to Season 4 We’ll have more details and updates on RLCS Season 4 soon, so be on the lookout for further info on prize pool, the RLRS, and the RLCS World Championship location and dates. Be sure to follow @RLCS and @RocketLeague on Twitter for future updates on the league. With the RLCS Season 3 breaking all of our records and expectations we can’t say THANK YOU enough to our fans and community around Rocket League Esports. We’re excited to get the ball rolling on Season 4 and we’ll see everyone back on the pitch this summer. |

STAGE 2 - REGIONALS This stage is split up into two types of events, Regionals and Online Regionals. The Online Regional will take the best teams from the Open Qualifier to the pitch online to find who has what it takes to qualify for the Grand Finals. The Regionals will play out on a live TV broadcast and have teams play live from one of four studio locations in the U.S. to find out who has what it takes to earn their trip to sunny California. These will be held in Philadelphia, New York City, Chicago and San Francisco. One thing to keep in mind is each team that goes through the Regional Qualifier route will need to cover their travel costs to the Regionals in-studio, so make sure you choose one close to where you live! ONLINE REGIONALS
It all comes down to this. 16 of the best 2v2 teams from around the world will face off live at the Esports Arena in Santa Ana, California, to see who will walk away as the Universal Open Rocket League Champions. Taking place August 26-27, not only will the event be broadcast live on TV (on NBCSN in the US, & Syfy in the UK, Germany, Australia and multiple Latin American countries) but fans can buy tickets to be a part of the action live at the Esports Arena. More information on ticket sales, broadcast times and prize pool information will be announced soon. LOOKING TO THE FINALS AND FAQ And with that it’s time to start the search for the best 2v2 teams in the Rocket League community. Be sure to register today to start your journey for a chance at the $100,000 prize pool in the Universal Open Rocket League.

“Community First” has long been part of our mission statement here at Psyonix, and it’s a mantra we are always pushing to improve upon. The happiness of our players will always drive us to grow and influence the decisions we make in Rocket League, which is why I want to directly address the recent issues with our servers, matchmaking delays, and our PsyNet backend.
MATCHMAKING SERVER DELAYS Issues with matchmaking delays have only become apparent in recent days, going back to the Dropshot release last week. Our matchmaking server has periodically fallen into a problem state with a huge backlog of match reservations -- there are empty servers for you to play on, but PsyNet isn’t putting you into the servers fast enough. This causes the extreme search times being reported on social media. As this is a new problem, we are still investigating the root cause. We have made changes in the interim to reduce the likelihood of it recurring, but more substantial improvements will be made throughout 2017. DEDICATED SERVER PERFORMANCE The last category of “server issues” deals with problems when actually connected to a dedicated game server. This is most commonly reported as in-game lag spikes or hiccups independent of the player’s ping to the server. This problem is particularly difficult to identify because so many issues factor into a user’s experience with a dedicated server. Local connection problems can cause packet loss or an unstable connection despite a steady ping sample. Individual ISPs can have routing issues to one of our server hosts that causes unusually high ping that we have no control over. However, these outside factors do not mean there are not legitimate issues at hand, and this is another set of problems we need to own. After reports of instability in January, we significantly expanded our hardware investment in Europe, US-East, US-West, and Oceania to reduce our dependency on virtual servers. For those who are unfamiliar with the term, a “virtual” server exists in the cloud and can be rapidly spun up in quantity to meet demand. While virtual servers are not inherently bad -- and many games successfully and heavily rely on them -- we weren’t confident in their recent reliability. For context, we do not view virtual servers as a cost-saving measure, but instead as a way to scale to unexpected demand. It takes time to order and deploy hardware servers, and without a virtual solution, players would be forced to wait in long queues to get into an available server if demand spiked above our capacity. We ordered enough hardware servers to satisfy demand above our then-peak population to ensure a good experience for everyone. For a time, this seemed to have a positive impact, but the concerns have resurfaced since our latest update. We are addressing the issues with our game servers on a few fronts:
Growing pains are just that -- painful -- and we cannot thank our players enough for sticking with us as we continue to grow. Some of the issues we face will be addressed shortly, including those in our next hotfix; while other projects, like growing our Online Services team, will take more time to bear fruit. We thank you for your continued patience during this time, and as always, we welcome your feedback on Reddit, Facebook, and Twitter. We promise to do better by all of our players in the future. |

SOFT SKILL RESET Like previous seasons, Season 4 will “reset” your skill tiers for each Competitive Playlist. However, we do not want to repeat the matchmaking frenzy of the first few weeks of Season 3 when we did a full skill wipe. Average match quality was poor as the entire playerbase churned through placement matches and climbed back to their relative skill rankings. Instead, your placement matchmaking and eventual skill ranking will be informed by your previous season rankings. While we don’t aim to place you at the exact same rank you left off, we do want a clear initial separation so that Grand Champions aren’t wiping the floor with Bronze players during their climb. For example, Season 3 Champions will likely place into the Platinum tiers, while All-Stars and Superstars from Season 3 will place into Gold initially. SHORTER SEASONS We have heard your feedback on season length and agree that Season 3 lasted too long. We think an optimal season length is roughly four months, but the ultimate end date may depend on what changes we feel are necessary before a new season can begin. For this reason, we don’t want to promise an exact end date for Season 4 just yet, but we will be listening to your feedback on the topic carefully. NEW MATCHMAKING RATING AND FUTURE CHANGES We are hard at work on a variety of matchmaking improvements, but it’s worth talking about a specific change in the context of Season 4 that will help improve overall match quality. With the new season, we are moving to a new model for how we rank and matchmake players by skill. The most significant change is in how we are calculating your Matchmaking Rating (MMR). In previous seasons, MMR was a conservative estimate of your skill. A conservative MMR formula is common in modern skill systems and subtracts a few standard deviations of your “uncertainty” (how confident the system is about you) from your “skill” to generate a safe estimate of your potential. This made for a smooth introduction to the game, but created inconsistency in matchmaking and ranking that we have now eliminated. Your MMR (and your Skill Tier) are now only based on your Skill value itself. This has a few direct benefits:
We are also testing a variety of other matchmaking enhancements. Some of these will come online with Season 4, and some will be rolled out in the weeks and months ahead. A few of the things we’re looking into:
NEO TOKYO AND ARENA PREFERENCE TWEAKS The Neo Tokyo arena is being removed from our competitive and casual playlists. It will return to online play as a standard format arena in a future update. We recognize that alternate format arenas are a controversial subject and did not make this decision lightly. The data we gathered since the Arena Preferences feature launched in December showed far less dislike for these arenas than one might expect from reading social media, but it did amplify our internal concerns about whether the Neo Tokyo arena design met our standards as a team for Rocket League. We still feel that alternate arenas provide a valuable dose of variety to the online experience. However, the infrequent usage of these arenas in pro tournament play - an important part of the reason we introduced them in the first place - has us thinking deeply about their future. Going forward, we will continue to look at Arena Preferences data and community feedback on the topic. Additionally, we are making a few changes to the Arena Preferences system to make it more consistent and understandable. An arena’s odds are now modified by a simple percentage of the lobby that likes or dislikes it. For example:
We hope you’re as excited for the new Competitive Season as we are, along with all of the amazing content we have coming in next week’s Dropshot update. We’ll see you in Core 707 soon! |

Friday, March 17
Along with our open tournament, Rocket League will also have a booth (#1929) in the Gaming Expo Hall from March 16-18. A big thank you goes out to Alienware for providing all of our in-booth X-51 gaming PCs and 24-inch monitors! Stop by the booth during the show, play some games, and take home some swag! Last but not least, our own Jeremy Dunham will be on a panel during SXSW. “Surviving as an Independent AAA Game Studio” will focus on how Psyonix Studios, Astire Games, Insomniac Games, and Remedy Games have “adapted to the ever changing demands of making games, what the challenges are and how they are tackling them.” You can catch the panel March 17 at 12:30pm CST in Room 5ABC at the Austin Convention Center. |

Once all that’s settled, you can then get down to editing your sequence in-game. What you'll see first is your 'Shot List' that contains every shot you’ve set up as part of your new sequence. From here you can pick a shot to edit, add new shots, or delete ones you don’t want to keep. Editing a specific shot is the most important aspect of this new feature. You can place the car and the ball wherever you want on the field and you can specify the direction and speed of the ball with a full trajectory preview that helps you plan things out. Each shot can be tested in real-time, modified, and tested again to make it quick and easy to develop your new training sequence. Share When you’re ready to share your creation with the world, you can 'Upload' it from your list of Created modes in the 'Custom Training' menu. This will publish your sequence to our database and generate a unique, alphanumeric code you can share online. Players can “search” by code on the 'Browse' tab to find your sequence and play it for themselves! You can continue to edit your creations and upload new versions to the database. Players who have marked your sequence as a 'Favorite' will see that there’s a new version available and can choose to update to your new and improved version whenever they want. For this initial version, sharing is not available cross-platform, but we are working with our console partners to expand 'Custom Training' shares across all platforms as soon as we can (and hope to do so)! Browse The 'Browse' tab of the 'Custom Training' menu allows you to look through the most popular sequences that have been uploaded to our database. For this first release of the feature, you’ll see the Top 50 most downloaded sequences on your platform. From this list, you can play any of the most popular sequences directly. You can then mark the ones you like the most as 'Favorites' so you can quickly access them and, last but not least, you can search for a specific code if you’ve heard about a great sequence online but you don't see it in the Top 50. Favorite This list stores every sequence you’ve marked as a 'Favorite' so you can play specific sequences without having to remember their codes or find them in the 'Browse' list. It’s important to note that we store a copy of all your 'Favorite' modes locally. Creators can upload new versions of 'Custom Training' sequences, and since the version you 'favorited' is stored, you can choose whether or not you want to update to the latest version or not. Future Updates We have a lot of plans to keep improving on the Custom Training feature. This is just the start! Here are a few things we’re talking about for future updates:

In terms of how this will affect your personal rankings: most players at Challenger and above will see themselves gain anywhere from ½ to 2 skill tiers. For instance, a Rising Star in Doubles might now be considered a Shooting Star or a low-division All-Star. Prospect-ranked players will move less so -- from no change to roughly half a rank. Your ranks are not automatically updated, but winning matches will quickly calibrate you to the correct new rankings. Listed below, are some visuals of the overall Skill Distribution for Competitive Doubles for Season 3, before and after the changes. Before After As always, we'll continue to keep an eye on Competitive rankings and their related systems. See you again next time! |

Psyonix has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to harassment of any kind, and we will ban reported offenders at our discretion. The length of player bans for any valid reason is also at our discretion and could include permanent bans if appropriate. Furthermore, the more often you are banned, the longer each subsequent ban will be, including an eventual permanent ban. With the addition of our new Crates and Keys system, it should also be noted that “Crate Farming” (i.e. players who join matches with no intention of playing with teammates) is not allowed because it takes away from both the flow and the action of a game. If you see someone crate farming during a match, please report them under the “Unsportsmanlike Conduct” category and we’ll take it from there. FRIENDLY REMINDER Last but not least? Be nice, everyone! Rocket League is a game that brings people together from all over the world. We want our game to be a fantastic and healthy experience for everyone who enters a stadium, regardless of their skill, rank, or experience. The nicer we are, the more fun our community can have, and having fun is what’s all about! |

Party Chat One of the most popular community requests we've seen is the addition of a Party Chat option and with the Rumble update, you'll finally get one. This new feature will be accessible both in-game and while navigating the menus, with all sent messages being delivered to party members whether they're in a match or not. Battle-Car Presets and Enhanced Team Customization An even more popular community request (and perhaps the most requested community feature of all time) is the desire to have unique car loadouts. We're happy to report that the oft-demanded "Car Presets" will indeed make their debut in the Rumble update. Offering up to 10 different slots to save your favorite configurations, the Car Preset option also allows you to save your vehicle customizations on a "per team" basis, with new "Equip to Blue" and "Equip to Orange" options! As an added bonus, we've also expanded your primary color palette with additional shades for the Orange team and all-new green shades for the Blue team. We've even thrown in a "Randomize Preset" button to try out new builds! Crates and Keys and Esports Too As Rocket League's competitive scene continues to grow, our support for its players need to grow with it. With that in mind, the Rumble patch will introduce an all-new “Crates and Keys" system that will help fund our upcoming esports events and prize pools. The system itself is pretty straightforward, as random Crates will occasionally drop in addition to the normal post-game item rewards in Online matches. Players will then have the option to purchase Keys that will allow them to access the contents of the Crates, where they can find random, but exclusive, Garage items that are unique to the Crate they've chosen. These Crate items (or their duplicates) can be kept or traded with other players after a mandatory trade-hold, and include everything from new "Import" Battle-Cars (i.e. new-look vehicles that have the same hit-boxes, physics, and turning radii as their original inspirations) to unique animated Decals, Exotic Wheels, and other cool Garage accessories. You will always be able to view the possible contents of a crate prior to opening it and should you decide not to use a Key at all, you can always trade either the unopened Crates or Keys themselves to other players on both PlayStation 4 and Steam PC (please note: we have reached out to Microsoft about implementing key trading on Xbox One). Keys can be purchased individually or in bundles and, as mentioned earlier, a portion of the proceeds will go towards funding future esports events and prize pools. Here is how the pricing will shake out in North America (but you can expect regional equivalents in other territories) Keys will be available for $1.49 individually, or in bundles of 5 for $5, 10 for $10, or 20 for $20. If the Crates and Keys system isn't for you, then you can turn it off with a prompt the first time a Crate is dropped in-game or at any time via the Options menu. Should you decide to opt out, you will still receive random Crates when they occur, but you will not be notified, nor will they be displayed in your inventory unless you choose to turn the system back on. Player-to-Player Trading Finally, and as mentioned above, Player-to-Player trading will launch with the Rumble update as well! Though some restrictions apply (you won't be able to trade premium DLC items, for example), you will have the ability to swap items with other players on your own platform. Multiple items can be traded in any combination you like -- five hats for five wheels? Eight Antennas for one Boost? It's entirely up to you! Summation And that's the Rocket League Rumble update! It's a monster revision to be sure, and one that we hope will have a little something for everyone regardless of your play styles and preferences. Remember to let us know what you think on our official Twitter, Facebook, or Subreddit, and don't forget to check back on September 8 to try it all out for yourself. See you then! |

What does this mean in practice? Let’s look at a few examples:
This new system has major upsides. First, friends can still queue Competitive together even if their ranks aren’t quite close enough, and second, when players face off against parties of wide skill variance, the highest ranked player should be near their rank, not significantly above them. Finally, using a low-ranked "Smurf" teammate no longer gives any tangible benefit when ranking up. Fixing Rank Boosting We recognize that just fixing matches going forward doesn’t address the existing issues with players who have exploited these loopholes to reach rankings they don’t deserve. For now, we will take specific action against players at Rising Star and above that have demonstrated a consistent pattern of partying with teammates well below their personal rank. This pattern is defined as follows:
All players that meet either of the above criteria, and are in Rising Star tier or higher, will have their Skill Tier and MMR set to Rising Star, Division I. For the purposes of end of season rewards, they will not be considered to have reached Champion unless they reacquire that ranking after these changes. As always we welcome your feedback and look forward to seeing how you like the new system. Enjoy! |
