Something Strange Is Happening In Farmstead Arena…

Though locals have long warned against demoing once the sun goes down, a group of foolish teens has unleashed a long-buried horror from deep below. As the villains of classic horror franchises rise from the soil, brave players who survive their Challenges can earn horrifying rewards.

Golden Pumpkins work just like previous Golden rewards⁠—complete the Challenge up to five times to earn Golden Pumpkins, then open them in your Inventory to unlock items.

Streetball Roots Run Deep in Sovereign Heights

While the biggest names in basketball have traditionally come from Dunk House, there lives a hardcore group of Hoops mains who traded hardwood courts for asphalt.

This synth-heavy hit single is perfect for your next slam dunk and will be available in the Item Shop for a short time during The Block Party.

Get ready to show off your skills! Hoops will take over the regularly scheduled 1 p.m. PDT Competitive Tournaments Extra Modes slot on North American servers, and the 1 p.m. UTC slot on European servers during The Block Party.

The Block Party begins right now and will rock the house until October 18.

With the launch of the first new Hoops Arena since the Mode’s initial debut, we’re also happy to announce our second episode of Under the Hood! This behind-the-scenes series features Psyonix developers as they dive into the making of Rocket League, with this episode focusing on The Block Arena, the surrounding Sovereign Heights scenery, and the history behind this Arena’s creation.

SD Loyal. Always Loyal. Always San Diego.

Earlier this year, Rocket League teamed up with San Diego Loyal Soccer Club as the front-of-kit sponsor for the team’s 2022 USL Championship season. Now, the collab continues with the in-game SD Loyal’s Always Loyal Bundle, featuring Decals based on the team’s IRL Rocket League jerseys.

Kit Talk

With a custom design based on San Diego's diverse topography, the San Diego Loyal (Home) Decal comes in a brilliant Torrey Green in honor of San Diego’s indigenous Torrey pine trees. The San Diego Loyal (Away) version opts for a subtle tribute to the city's streets, perfect for anyone craving a clean white design. The San Diego Loyal (Special Edition) Decal takes it back to the classic Rocket League colors—orange and blue.

Inspired by San Diego’s Mexican/Mexican American roots, the design for the San Diego Loyal (Siempre Leal) Decal is inspired by traditional Talavera Mexican tiles. SD Loyal’s jersey designs come from Mexican sports apparel brand Charly Futbol, who snagged another spot in the Bundle with cleated Charly Wheels.
