Prepare for an unprecedented event in Rocket League history! The latest season has just launched, bringing with it a Rocket Pass that sets a new standard for appeal, especially after five years of Rocket League being free-to-play. This isn’t just any Rocket Pass; it’s the first to feature two distinct licensed car bodies: the iconic Pontiac Firebird and the classic Chevrolet Astro van. Plus, it’s packed with incredible Sonic the Hedgehog-themed items, including an electrifying goal explosion and unique hamster-wheel-style rims where a miniature Sonic speeds along as you accelerate!
These exclusive items alone justify the cost of the pass, assuming you’re committed to unlocking them. Fortunately, Epic has streamlined the grind this season with enhanced XP gains from matches and by making certain rewards more accessible. For instance, while previous passes required reaching rank 40 for a second vehicle body, the Astro van is now unlockable at just rank 33. Moreover, all Rocket League Credits included in the pass can now be acquired by rank 69, a significant improvement from the typical rank 100 requirement. When you factor in three outstanding goal explosions, including the dynamic Sonic explosion, it’s clear this pass delivers an exceptional abundance of fantastic content compared to its predecessors. This exciting Rocket Pass will be available until December 10th and can be purchased for 1,000 Credits or obtained through a month’s subscription to Fortnite Crew.
The new Rocket Pass offers incredible value, particularly for Fortnite players. A Fortnite Crew subscription allows you to acquire the pass, and unlike in-game passes within Fortnite, you won’t lose access to the Rocket Pass content even if your Crew subscription expires. Both the Pontiac Firebird and Chevrolet Astro van will seamlessly transfer to Fortnite, as will the Sonic wheels and most other boosts, trails, and wheels included in the pass. Notably, the Astro van marks the debut of an SUV body in Fortnite that doesn’t require a separate purchase from the item shop. Furthermore, a plethora of decals for both the Firebird and Astro are available to unlock. While progression still requires playing Rocket League, Epic’s recent XP adjustments should make the journey smoother and more rewarding.
In other exciting news from the Fortnite universe, the Fortnite Festival Gorillaz Pass recently introduced an array of fantastic skins and rewards for fans. It’s a prime example of Epic’s commitment to delivering diverse and engaging content across their titles, offering even more reasons to dive into these vibrant game worlds.
