The Summer of Rocket League Esports continues with the conclusion of the DreamHack Summer Rocket League Championship. Teams from all over Europe and even North America made their way to beautiful Jönköping, Sweden to fight for their share of $50,000 in prize money. In an impressive 4-2 victory over Gale Force Esports, FlipSid3 Tactics took the first-ever DreamHack Rocket League Championship title.

FlipSid3 Tactics came out strong in every matchup over the weekend. The addition of Miztik to the FlipSid3 roster allowed Markydooda and Kuxir97 to play at a level reminiscent of their RLCS Season 2 World Championship performance. With Miztik finally achieving his first LAN victory, and F3's strong performance overall, the future looks bright for the European juggernauts.

Gale Force Esports also had a strong showing at the event with a newly-formed roster of ViolentPanda, KayDop and Turbopulsa. Displaying a dominant ground game against Rogue and Team Infuse, the roster performed well in their first LAN appearance together. With Turbopolsa not officially confirmed on the GFE roster, their performance at DreamHack Summer speaks to the rapid chemistry of the team. With more competition coming up this summer, we expect to see GFE’s final roster spot filled in the near future.

The Rocket League Anniversary Update is less than a month away, which means Competitive Season 4 is also near its end. July 5 marks the beginning of Competitive Season 5 (we’ll have more on the new season later this month), and players who achieved rank in one or more Competitive Playlists are eligible for our brand new Competitive Season 4 Rewards.

To complement the Toppers, Rocket Trails, and Wheels from our previous Competitive Seasons, every eligible Rocket League player will receive at least one brand new [Supersonic] ‘Trail,” which is one of several new car customization options found in the Anniversary Update. (To help avoid confusion, we are renaming ‘Rocket Trails,’ to ‘Rocket Boosts’ in our next update.)

These Trails, which are a mix of purple, blue, and white by default, appear when your car goes Supersonic (when you use boost), acting as a visual cue for when your car is going its absolute fastest.

Each Skill Tier group -- Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Champion -- will have its own untradeable Trail. The highest Season Reward you receive is tied to the highest Tier you reached in any Competitive Playlist during Season 4. If you reached Champion at any point in Season 4, then dropped to Diamond or lower, you will still get the Champion-level Trail, along with Trails for every lower Tier.



The rewards, seen above, will be handed out as follows:

• Bronze I or higher – Season 4 Bronze Trail
  
• Silver I or higher – Season 4 Silver Trail + lower Trails
  
• Gold I or higher – Season 4 Gold Trail + lower Trails
  
• Platinum I or higher – Season 4 Platinum Trail + lower Trails
  
• Diamond I or higher – Season 4 Diamond Trail + lower Trails
  
• Champion – Season 4 Champion Trail + lower Trails
  
• Grand Champion – Season 4 Grand Champion in-game Title + Champion Trail + lower Trails

As we did at the end of Competitive Season 3, we will be monitoring every player’s Competitive matchmaking history up through the end of Season 4. Any account that has been identified as participating in matchmaking abuse during Season 4, like account boosting or deranking, will be denied Season 4 Rewards.

Be sure to check back on our blog for more updates about Competitive Season 5 and the Anniversary Update later this month!

What Anniversary Update would be complete without some fresh tracks and a new way to select your music?

We’re teaming up with Monstercat on a brand new default music playlist, “Rocket League x Monstercat,” with 18 tracks coming to our in-game soundtrack on July 5! Four tracks are being released early starting this week, with the remaining 14 tracks making their worldwide debut inside Rocket League next month!

If you watched our Anniversary Update trailer, or saw it during the RLCS World Championship broadcast, you should recognize “ROCK IT” by Tokyo Machine, which you can check out on Spotify. If you want even more, one new track will be released every Monday heading up to the Update’s release. Once released, check the Rocket League’s Twitter and Facebook for more information.

Players on Steam will be able to download the soundtrack directly after release, and the playlist will be available to stream or purchase (where applicable) on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, Bandcamp, and more.

Along with the brand new default playlist, we’re including a FREE Monstercat Flag and Decal in the Anniversary Update, so you can rep your favorite artist on the pitch.

The new Monstercat playlist is helping us kick off Rocket League Radio, a new take on how you choose which music plays in the Rocket League menu. Four distinct playlists will be available at launch, including “Rocket League x Monstercat,” “Rocket League OST Vol.1,” “Rocket League OST Vol. 2,” and “Unreleased Tracks.” (Unreleased tracks are songs not yet tied to an official soundtrack release.) You can stick with your favorite playlist, or listen to all four playlists at once!

This initial version of Rocket League Radio is a platform for us to build on in future updates. While there is no set timetable, we will eventually add even more playlists, and, yes, even the ability to play music when you’re in a match. Until then, enjoy the new tracks, and the rest of what the Anniversary Update has to offer! Check out the full tracklisting and album artwork below:
