by Rainier on June 5, 2023 @ 11:11 a.m. PDT

Rocket League is a fast-paced action-sports game featuring amazing physics, crazy aerial action, and compelling multiplayer combat.

The sequel to Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars, Rocket League expands on its successful pedigree with improved graphics and physics systems, a robust new single-player campaign, considerable customization options, and a fully-charged multiplayer game geared for a next-generation action-sports experience.

Rocket League is a futuristic action-sports game where players pilot rocket-powered vehicles in an enhanced version of soccer by driving their vehicles into the ball and other players in a variety of arenas. Rocket League uses an advanced physics system to simulate realistic interactions between cars and the ball, where mass and momentum determine how hard balls and cars hit each other, creating a unique and visceral playing experience.


There’s a party going on and everyone is invited because Rocket League Season 11 begins on June 7 at 8am PDT following a game update on June 6 at 4pm PDT.! Season 11 will feature a new Rocket Pass starring the Nissan Silvia (S13), brand new Arena, and more.

The iconic Nissan Silvia drift car (Hybrid hitbox) headlines Season 11’s Rocket Pass, which will be unlocked immediately for players that get Rocket Pass Premium. In addition, players will have the chance to unlock the tuned-up Nissan Silvia RLE as they progress through the Rocket Pass.

Rocket League Season 11 will also include:

  • A Brand New Arena - Players can join a party by the water in Season 11’s new Estadio Vida Arena.
  • Birthday Ball Limited Time Event Rocket League’s 8th anniversary is coming up later this summer, so it’s almost time to celebrate with another Birthday Ball LTE. More information will be revealed at a later date.
  • Season 10 Rewards and More Season 10 Competitive Rewards will be distributed shortly after Season 11 begins. The Season also introduces new festive Competitive Tournament rewards and quality of life updates.

Perched high amongst the seaside hills, a pack of tuned-up drift cars awaits their signal. The whistle blows and they begin a chaotic descent, sliding sideways through the perilous mountain roads. A wild crowd waits at the base of the hills, cheering as their favorite racers boost toward victory. These are the sights and sounds of Season 11.

Hope you’re well-rested, cause the festivities are raging all Season long. Powerslide with the beloved Nissan Silvia (S13), dive into a color-filled Rocket Pass, and celebrate Soccar’s most joyous moments in Estadio Vida Arena.

Now, who’s ready to turn up? Season 11 begins on June 7!

SEASIDE RIDE

Right off the starting line, one car leads this year’s big race—the Nissan Silvia! This JDM classic's S13 chassis is famous for its quickness and fearsome agility. In-game, it uses a Hybrid Hitbox that can handle just about anything you throw at it.

Of course, not everyone is satisfied with stock. The tuned-up Nissan Silvia RLE takes your ride to the next level with a custom hood scoop, carbon fiber mods, and a dramatic rear wing. Players who want to go all in on the drift look can even equip a mismatched set of Nissan Silvia RLE Wheels

Both cars will be available in-game through Rocket Pass Premium. What’s that? Glad you asked!

RAUCOUS REWARDS

As the opening ceremony ends the real festivities come to life, and one of our favorite ways to party is with incredible Rocket Pass Rewards!

As you race down the mountain, leave clouds of rainbow smoke in your wake with the Smoketrail Trail. The Maelstrom Wheels feature a super simple tread with a touch of swirling color around a pitch-black center. Or if you want to join this extravaganza, Glitterati Wheels are a treadless, semi-translucent option full of sparkle and shine!

You can party all day with the Smokeshow Goal Explosion’s multicolor rockets, or set off the night with the hyperactive Laser-Light Goal Explosion. Not a fan of fanfare? That’s where the Crickets Player Anthem comes in. Chirp.

The 5-spoked Estrella Wheels are a new option for lovers of a clean look, while the special edition Estrella: Prismatic Wheels will transform your car into a self-contained rave! And of course, the revelry can’t start without the colorful Piñata Wheels, animated Maracas Topper, and Demonio Wheels!

You’ll get all this and so much more with Rocket Pass Premium

SOCCAR BY THE SEA

Every celebration needs its venue, and Estadio Vida is the perfect place to be merry! This Arena is nestled in the heart of a seaside village famous for its loving fans and gorgeous sunsets.

Of course, the sounds of cheering fans isn’t the only thing echoing through the Arena. Featured in the Season 11 Gameplay Trailer, you’ll be able to get "Não Sei Parar" by Bhaskar & Afterclapp as an in-game Player Anthem through the Item Shop. Rocket League Radio will also start playing new Monstercat tracks for Season 11 including songs by Brazilian artist Carola, so get ready to groove!

CHAMPIONS OF DRIFT

Soccar is for everyone, but only the best of the best can make it down the mountain in one piece. This Season has tons of exciting new Tournament Rewards… if you have the skills to earn them! 

Bite into the Hot 'Za Topper, or pull off devilish demos with the Flaming Fork Antenna. Don’t sweat it though, ‘cause the rainbow Unicorn Juice Boost can wash away even the hottest competition. 

If you’re lucky enough, you might even get one of this Season’s Black Market rewards! The Chemergy Goal Explosion bursts into a gooey glob of brilliance, while the animated Autobahn Decal turns cars into your own personal highway.

TUNED TO PERFECTION

Estadio Vida Arena is famous for its beautiful beachside atmosphere, and the Season 11 Elite Pack is perfect for soaking up all that sun! With a Cobalt Dominus Car as the base, you’ll get loaded up on UV power with the Black Sun Ray BoostLime Astro CSX Inverted Wheels, and Crimson Meteor Storm Goal Explosion!

Or if you’re looking for something a bit more high-tech, the Rookie Pack is built around the cybernetic Masamune Car. The Druk Decal brings a certain robo-dragon vibe, and you'll also get the Friction Trail, a Calculated Player Banner, and a set of Spiralis Wheels.

READY FOR ROUND 2

So what’s next for these drifting drivers? When they’re not clutch kicking around town, we’ve spotted them prepping supplies for the next big shindig—Rocket League’s birthday! We’ll have plenty of presents for everyone, but they’ll have to wait till the main event. No peeking!
