Rocket League News

Control your car… and your chi.

You’ve mastered hitting the Soccar ball, now it’s time to master “bending” your way ‘round rivals with the inspiration of water, earth, fire, and air. Kit out your ride in Rocket League with chi-infused accessories inspired by the spiritual world of Avatar: The Last Airbender!
⁠
⁠These accessories—including Decals based on fan-favorite characters like Aang, Katara, and Toph—are in the Item Shop now ‘til April 28, 2024, at 9 AM PT.
⁠


[h2]⁠AANG AND THE GANG[/h2]
We might not have as much wisdom as Uncle Iroh, but we know that you must steer in harmony with your teammates to emerge victorious in the arena. One way you could achieve that balance is by channeling the spirit of The Last Airbender himself with the Aang Octane Decal.
⁠
⁠That being said, the Katara Takumi Decal also makes quite an inspirational splash, embodying the same unwavering sense of justice and determination as the skilled waterbender it's based on. Would you prefer to bring the heat? Blaze your way to the goal with the fiery Zuko Dominus Decal.
⁠


⁠If you’re trying to be a force on the field, you should be driving like a Sky Bison, so step into the fluffiest ride in the arena with the Appa Merc Decal! Or, face the opposition head-on while echoing the power of an earthbending prodigy with the Toph Beifong Fennec Decal.
⁠
⁠Whatever element you wield, just be careful you don’t bump into innocent vegetables, as the Cabbage Merchant Masamune Decal will provide plenty of greenery with its animated cabbages.



⁠Water, earth, fire, and air collide in the Avatar: The Last Airbender Mega Bundle, which contains all six Avatar Decals plus the Avatar Elemental Boost. Each item is also available for purchase individually.

[h3]⁠AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER MEGA BUNDLE (1100 CREDITS)[/h3]

• Aang Octane Decal (300 Credits individually) (eligible for cross-game ownership with Fortnite)
  
• Katara Takumi Decal (300 Credits individually)

• Toph Beifong Fennec Decal (300 Credits individually)

• Appa Merc Decal (300 Credits individually)
  
• Avatar Elemental Boost (400 Credits individually) (eligible for cross-game ownership with Fortnite)

All four physical elements combine in the Avatar Elemental Boost.

⁠The Avatar items are available now through April 28. Which elements will you bring to the arena?

Hey folks! Starting right now, a new US Central server region is live in Rocket League! We know this has been a longtime ask from North American players, and we’re excited to bring the new region online.

Servers for Online Matches: Servers in US Central are located in Illinois, Iowa, and Texas. With the new region online, Illinois and Texas servers originally located in US East are now part of US Central. To check out the new server region, open the Casual or Competitive Cards in the Play Menu, select Regions, and choose US Central on the list.

Tournament Servers: With the new region coming online, the location of Tournament servers is not changing – US Tournament servers will continue to be hosted in Illinois, Iowa, and Texas as they’ve always been.

You can ensure you're seeing the correct Tournament schedule by going to Settings > Gameplay > Tournament Schedule Region. From there, players in North America should select US East, US Central, or US West to see the Tournament schedule best for them. After choosing one of the three US regions, the region listed on the Tournament Details page should appear as “US-Central.”

Thanks everyone, and let us know what you think of the new region once you have a chance to check it out!

If you haven’t slammed on the accelerator enough, take a drive to the Item Shop to check out even more team Decals! City Slam comes crashing in March 26 at 9 AM PT ‘til April 9 at 6 PM PT.

[h3]A CITY OF CHALLENGES[/h3]
Wear your favorite team’s colors with pride! There are ten different Season Mode-themed Decals you can unlock by completing City Slam Challenges.



Octane drivers, look explosive with the Bombers Decal, show off your fast driving with the Express Decal, bear your teeth with the Kodiaks Decal, or brandish your tusks with the Mammoths Decal.

If you prefer to step into a Merc, rule over the pitch with the Dragons Decal or defend your party’s honor with the Guardians Decal. Meanwhile, Dominus drivers can demonstrate their nobility with the Knights Decal, look ghoulish with the Phantoms Decal, or set their goal on obliteration with the Destroyers Decal. And we’re not forgetting Breakout, which becomes part of the pack with the Wolves Decal!

Challenges are even better with trophies. For taking down one of City Slam’s toughest Challenges (Play 20 Online Matches), you’ll earn a Golden Cup you can open in your inventory to unlock items from the Accelerator, Turbo, or Triumph Series. You can complete this Challenge up to five times, so clear your trophy case for five shining Golden Cups 🏆

For you extra competitive Soccar players, there’s also an unlimited Win 10 Online Matches Challenge that rewards a suspension-busting 20,000 XP each time.

[h3]CITY SLAM FOR A SPIN[/h3]
When a team can be defeated, things get heated! Head to the City Slam tab of the Item Shop to browse Decals showing the Season Mode teams’ fiery passion for victory—an inferno of neon flames that light up even the darkest Soccar pitch. All the Decals below are animated!

The Wolves (City Slam) Dingo Decal is the perfect example, with fearsome fangs at the front and a blue blaze at the rear. Matching its primal energy is the Kodiaks (City Slam) Dominus Decal, which roars into the arena with all the ferocity you’d expect from a flaming bear.

If you really want to feel the heat, check out the Dragons (City Slam) Fennec Decal which sports a bright blue blaze that perfectly matches its mythological origins. The only thing that can go toe to toe is the Guardians (City Slam) Fennec Decal, which covers your Car Body in flowing lava.

If you’re after a paint job that won’t have you reaching for the air con, then look no further than the Bombers (City Slam) Octane Decal which trades fierce flames for shocking sparks. Equally shocking is the Mammoths (City Slam) Dingo Decal that’ll electrif-eye around the pitch. You may also want to consider the Express (City Slam) Octane Decal, which dials down the temperature but still dons animated smoke.

Your rivals will want to hit the brakes once they spot the Phantoms (City Slam) Dominus Decal’s sinister skull and the Destroyers (City Slam) Dominus Decal’s ominous glow. The Knights (City Slam) Dominus Decal isn’t for the faint of heart either, with an axe-wielding armored warrior that will help you “chop” your way to victory.

And remember, a team is nothing without its fanbase to cheer them on, so show your love with the “Need You” Player Anthem by Nostalgix.

Not sure who to support? Be every team’s biggest fan by picking up the City Slam Mega Bundle, which contains all the Item Shop City Slam Decals.
