'Rocket League' Season 6 Begins This Week - Trailer

by Rainier on March 7, 2022 @ 12:04 p.m. PST

Rocket League is a fast-paced action-sports game featuring amazing physics, crazy aerial action, and compelling multiplayer combat.

The sequel to Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars, Rocket League expands on its successful pedigree with improved graphics and physics systems, a robust new single-player campaign, considerable customization options, and a fully-charged multiplayer game geared for a next-generation action-sports experience.

Rocket League is a futuristic action-sports game where players pilot rocket-powered vehicles in an enhanced version of soccer by driving their vehicles into the ball and other players in a variety of arenas. Rocket League uses an advanced physics system to simulate realistic interactions between cars and the ball, where mass and momentum determine how hard balls and cars hit each other, creating a unique and visceral playing experience.


Psyonix proudly presents Season 6, an all-new adventure featuring our beloved cast of cars.

This season introduces an animation-themed Rocket Pass featuring the new Nomad van, along with a never-before-seen Neo Tokyo (Comic) Variant Arena. As the season continues, we’ll release items from the Fornax Series, uncage the legendary Black Fennec, and introduce a smashing Mid-Season Event that showcases a New Game Mode

COMING UP NEXT 

This Season’s Rocket Pass is packed tighter than a clown car. Fans of the Merc Hitbox rejoice! We’re going cross country with the bouncing Nomad van, complete with road trip stickers on the Well Traveled Decal.

Be careful while channel surfing—the mysterious Nomster has been spreading rapidly through the game. We’re not exactly sure WHAT he is yet, but he’s showing up in new Wheels, a Goal Explosion, even a new Antenna that somehow devours the grille of the Nomad! Not cool Nomster, not cool!

BONUS FEATURES

The fun doesn’t stop with the Rocket Pass; we’ve got the Fornax Series coming into play as Blueprints shortly after the Season begins. Featuring the stylish Mamba Car, this series mixes new and old with some totally re-imagined classics. Slip on a pair of Pixelated Shades: Multichrome or get holographic with the new Troika: Roasted Wheels. We’ve also got a new Shade Raid Goal Explosion that transforms every match into the pages of a comic book. 

Arenas are undergoing a bit of a transformation as well, as the new Neo Tokyo (Comic) Variant comes into the game. 

A new batch of Tournament Rewards is rolling in, and it’s a whole bag of tricks. Toilet paper rolls, heavy dumbbells, and wheels full of teeth all mix together to make some of our zaniest rewards yet.

Don’t touch that dial! Season 6 has another surprise in store. Later this Season, a new Limited Time Event will debut, releasing an entirely new Mode that’s sure to be a smash hit. Details to come, but for now, we’ll just say we hope you like bumping!

AVAILABLE IN THE ITEM SHOP

It looks like the devs used permanent marker on this one. That’s right, the much anticipated Black Fennec is coming to the Item Shop in Season 6, so get your credits ready. This instant classic will pair perfectly with your favorite Esports Decals and Titanium White Wheels. 

We’re also bringing in new Starter and Standard Bundles packed full of classic items like the Jäger 619, Toon-Hydro Trail, Toon Goal Explosion (Titanium White), and more!

Season 6 kicks off March 9, 2022 (8 a.m. PST/4 p.m. UTC) following a game update on March 8 at 4 p.m PST.
