Rocket League Season 9 Dated and Detailed
Pending first-party certification, the new season will specifically kick-off at 1 p.m. ET across every platform.
As you may know, the biggest addition the new season brings will be Ranked Extra Modes. In other words, Dropshot, Hoops, Snow Day, and Rumble will be leaving the Casual Playlist realm and heading into the Ranked Playlist hopper.
The modes will no longer be available to play in casual playlists. According to Psyonix, this decision was in order to not split the player-base and divide the server population among casual and ranked. In other words, to ensure a better experience for those that choose to play the mode. However, for those that want a more casual, less competitive take on these modes, they are out of luck.
Season 9 will also release alongside the new Hot Wheels Triple Threat DLC pack, as well as a special Hot Wheels stadium, the latter which will of course be free and automatically added like all stadiums.
A new in-game Soundtrack IP from Monstercat -- dubbed Rocket League x Monstercat Vol. 4 -- will also be added. For those that don't know: Monstercat's music has been featured prominently in the game since its launch back in 2015.
There will also be a host of "quality of life" improvements, including a shortening of the post-match progression screen, which fans have been complaining about since it was added earlier this month as part of the game's huge progression update and Rocket Pass implementation. Psyonix failed to detail any other of these "quality of life" improvements, implying that most, if not all, are very minor.
And of course with the start of Season 9, Season 8 rewards will be dished out. You can read more about those, here.

Samoyed I'm considering getting this game. Should I play it on pc or Xbox?
Pc, much more on the table. I'd say try on keyboard first, but if you can't get the hang swap to controller.
