Season 3 Changes
3v3 Standard, 2v2 Doubles
Adjusted MMR thresholds to address underpopulation in Diamond ranks and above. These ranks were significantly less populated than in previous seasons, so we are bringing their requirements into line for Season 3.
Each Tier from Champion I through Grand Champion III will have a slightly wider MMR range than in Season 2
Supersonic Legend is not affected by these changes
Extra Modes
Each tier’s MMR range is now narrower to better reflect the skill distribution of these playlists. In practice, this means that Champion+ ranks are reachable at lower MMR numbers.
All Modes

Hello everyone! Patch notes for update v1.94 (the Season 3 Update) are below. We're also using this thread for bugs and other issues tied to this release, so check out the section below the patch notes for more info, formatting, and so on.
NOTE: Season 3 does not begin today (April 6). Today's update prepares the game for Season 3, which starts tomorrow, April 7, at 8 a.m. PDT / 3 p.m. UTC. For anything tied to the start of Season 3 (like Season 2 Rewards), we'll have Release Notes up tomorrow morning.
Trade Ins are now managed in their own section in the Garage
All Trade In-eligible items fall into three categories:
Core Series Items
Tournament Items
Blueprints
The Trade In menu displays how many eligible Trade Ins you have, sorted by category and rarity
Trade Ins still operate the same way as before:
5 Uncommon = 1 Rare
5 Rare Items = 1 Very Rare
5 Very Rare = 1 Import
5 Imports = 1 Exotic
5 Exotics = 1 Black Market
Tournament Items and (revealed) Blueprints can now be traded in regardless of series. The Tournament Item or Blueprint you receive from a Trade In is directly tied to the series of the items you traded in.
For example, if you trade in three Ignition Series Blueprints and two Ferocity Series Blueprints, you'll have a 60% chance to receive an Ignition Series Blueprint and a 40% chance to receive an Ferocity Series Blueprint.

As you know, Season 3 is charging ahead for its launch on April 7, and you can expect a game update on April 6 at 4 p.m. PDT (11 p.m. UTC) to get the track ready for race day. Along with adding the content for Season 3, this update will also include improvements to the Trade In system.
For those still new to Rocket League, players can trade five items of the same rarity for one item of a higher rarity. This process is called "Trade In." With so many items in Rocket League and inventories constantly expanding, we wanted to make the Trade In process easier.
NEW "TRADE IN" MENU
Once your game is updated on April 6, a dedicated "Trade In" button will be added to the Garage Menu. In the new Trade In menu, you'll see your tradable inventory organized into three categories: Core Items, Tournament Items, and Blueprints. Your items in each of these categories are organized by rarity. This new menu displays how many Trade Ins you have available, making it much easier to trade your items in quickly and efficiently.
Simply select the rarity of the item you would like to receive from the Trade In. Then, you can select your items and trade them in for an item of higher rarity. You can repeat this same process for your items earned from Competitive Tournaments, as well as Blueprints.
Following the update, Blueprints (revealed only) and items from Competitive Tournaments can be Traded In regardless of their Series. Since you'll be able to mix Blueprints from different Series in a Trade In, this changes the chance of the Blueprint you'll get in return. You'll have a better chance to receive an item from a Series if you Trade In more Blueprints from that same Series. For example, if you trade in three Ignition Series Blueprints and two Ferocity Series Blueprints, you'll have a 60% chance to receive an Ignition Series Blueprint and a 40% chance to receive an Ferocity Series Blueprint.
Remember, Season 3 begins on April 7 at 8 a.m. PDT (3 p.m. UTC), a day after the update goes live. Season 2 Competitive Rewards will be distributed shortly after Season 3 begins. Gear up to hit the new DFH Stadium (Circuit) and the all-new Rocket Pass on April 7!
The latest Rocket Pass is getting ready to leave the garage when Season 3 launches on April 7! This new Rocket Pass features 70+ Tiers of new items celebrating speed. Check out the first look at these new items in the Season 3 Rocket Pass trailer above.
Season 3's Rocket Pass needed a new car to set the pace, and Tyranno is the perfect high-octane car for the task. This speed demon with the Dominus hitbox is ready for the pitch, and is unlocked immediately with Rocket Pass premium. Don't forget, Rocket Pass Premium gives players additional Weekly and Seasonal Challenges, plus an XP boost to help you Tier Up even faster. Players who have Rocket Pass Premium also get access to the Pro Rewards beyond Tier 70, which unlock variants of select Rocket Pass Items. Pro Rewards are tradable to other players too!
In addition to Tyranno, the Season 3 Rocket Pass features new items like the Chequered Flag Goal Explosion, Traction Wheels, Retrogression Animated Decal, new Player Anthems and more! As always, Rocket Pass Premium also has up to 1000 Credits to unlock. Check out more of the featured items on the Rocket Pass page.
The Pro Tiers are getting an overhaul with Season 3. Tiers beyond Tier 70 will no longer be hidden. Instead, players at Tier 70 or beyond will now see what item they can unlock 30 Tiers in advance. We will also be adding back the ability to purchase Pro Tiers.
The countdown has begun! Get ready to Tier Up your Rocket Pass on April 7 following a game update on April 6 at 4 p.m. PDT (11 a.m. UTC) (pending first-party certification). How far will you go?
