Cars have always been the main event in Rocket League, but a strong second is the game’s musical legacy. To celebrate our ever-evolving soundtrack, we’re introducing a new in-game event called Neon Nights that includes exciting Challenges, Golden Moons, a chaotic LTM, and unlockable Items featuring the immortal space princess GRIMES.
In collaboration with GRIMES' upcoming space opera, a super-intelligent deep space AI will begin transmitting Challenges directly into your life-sim, allowing you to unlock GRIMES-themed items. If our calculations are correct, they should arrive on Earth Wednesday, Jan. 26 at 9 a.m. PST (5 p.m. UTC)!
You’ll be ready to join the machines with the Gravitator and Space Queen Toppers, Braided Trail, GRIMES Decal, GRIMES Wheels, and GRIMES Player Banner. We’re also remixing some old favorites with the Fireworks (Multichrome) Universal Decal and Uncanny Boost. The future has arrived in force, but you’ll have a chance to showcase your humanity and unlock two new Player Anthems from GRIMES' upcoming album: "Player of Games" and "Shinigami Eyes."
And speaking of AI, it seems that aimbots have taken over the Rocket Labs Arenas! Jump into a wild match of Heatseeker Ricochet and go head-to-head in this chaotic LTM.
Throughout Neon Nights, you’ll also get a chance to earn Golden Moons, which unlock a mix of classic items from the Impact, Nitro, and Overdrive Item Series. Golden Moons work just like Golden Gifts from Frosty Fest. Complete the Challenge up to five times to earn Golden Moons, then open them in your Inventory to unlock items!
And finally, in celebration of Lunar New Year, the Rocket League team wishes everyone a 2022 filled with happiness, prosperity, and longevity. We’re also offering the Year of the Tiger Free Bundle in the Item Shop featuring the fearless Tiny Tiger Topper and Tyger Decal. Neon Nights will be bumping from Jan. 26 to Feb. 8, so sit back, buckle up, and pre-save “Shinigami Eyes” HERE!

Then, sled into the featured LTMs of Winter Breakaway and Spike Rush! If you haven't checked them out before, Winter Breakaway takes place on Throwback Stadium (Snowy) and replaces the standard ball with the hockey puck from Snow Day. In Spike Rush, the Spike power-up from Rumble Mode is engaged after kickoff. The ball carrier can't boost and is demolished on impact, but can pass the ball to teammates to pull off some ice cold plays! Enjoy Winter Breakaway starting December 16 through December 24 and Spike Rush from December 24 through January 3.

UPDATES
We are fixing the Tournament Credits conversion issue that happened with the start of Season 5.
For anyone who has logged into Rocket League since the start of Season 5, we will be adding an All-Star Cup to your inventory within the next few days.
If you haven't logged into Rocket League since the start of the new season, your Tournament Credits will convert as they should have according to the Patch Notes.
We may change how Tournament Credits convert starting with the Season 5-Season 6 changeover, and we will make sure those changes are discussed before Season 5 ends.
The countdown for launch has begun! Get ready to blast off into Season 5 in Rocket League on November 17. Reach all-new heights in this latest season featuring a new Arena variant, Competitive Season, Rocket Pass, and more!
Starbase Arc has been INVADED! An evil force has taken control of the classic Arena, and has turned it into a new, dark soccar pitch known as Starbase Arc (Aftermath). Catch a glimpse of the new Arena in the trailer above, featuring a reimagined version of the song "Player Of Games" made for Season 5 by GRIMES! Be sure to check out the song when it releases later this month, and look out for Starbase Arc (Aftermath) once Season 5 begins on November 17.
Prior to the invasion, Starbase Arc was guarded by the watchful protector known as Nexus. This cadet was captured and transformed into a master of Rocket League. Unlock Nexus immediately with the Season 5 Rocket Pass Premium, and start tiering up to unlock its final transformation: Nexus SC.
The Season 5 Rocket Pass is packed full of otherworldly items like the Spacedirt Paint Finish, Hyperspace Animated Decal that transform with your cars speed, and a new Goal Explosion that is ready to fully take over: Cosmosis. Stay tuned for our full Rocket Pass trailer on November 16 where you'll see all these items and more in their intergalactic glory.
The day after Season 5 begins, be on the lookout for an LTM with a new twist on Heatseeker thanks to three new Labs Arenas: Barricade, Colossus, and Hourglass.
