Rocket League "Spring Fever" Event Announced

3.9
It may not be spring yet, but the folk over at Psyonix don't care, it has spring fever. The prescription: more Rocket League.

Because it has spring fever, Psyonix has announced its next in-game event for Rocket League, called Spring Fever, of course. The event, which begins next on March 19th, will notably feature a new Crate of the same name packed with new goodies to show off why your battle-car is the best battle-car of all-time.

The crates will be available as a drop after Online Matches, and will unlock with 'Flowers' that you earn, or as a direct purchase via the Rocket League client (similar to buying Keys or Premium DLC Battle-Cars). Basically, it is the same system Psyonix has deployed in the past for other seasonal events that have revolved around things like Christmas and Halloween.

Alongside the Spring Fever Create will be the addition of 10 new items, as is accustomed with in-game events. These also can be purchased using the aforementioned 'Flowers.” Normally, getting enough of the event-based currency to unlock all of the event-based items, isn't very hard. You'll have to play a decent amount of matches, but nothing much more than you usually would play on a more regular occasion. Personally, I've never had trouble unlocking every item.

Spring Fever will commence on Monday, March 19th, at 10 a.m. PDT. It will end on April 9th, at 5 p.m. PDT. For more details on how in-game events, Decriptors, and Event crates work, click here.

Rocket League is available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch. In case you have been living under a rock on Pluto since 2015 (when Rocket League first released), and thus know nothing about it, here's an overview, courtesy of Psyonix itself:

Soccer meets driving once again in the long-awaited, physics-based sequel to the beloved arena classic, Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars!

A futuristic Sports-Action game, Rocket League®, equips players with booster-rigged vehicles that can be crashed into balls for incredible goals or epic saves across multiple, highly-detailed arenas. Using an advanced physics system to simulate realistic interactions, Rocket League® relies on mass and momentum to give players a complete sense of intuitive control in this unbelievable, high-octane re-imagining of association football.

Awesome features include:

  • All-new Season Mode that allows players to enjoy a full single-player experience

  • Extensive Battle-Car customizations with more than 10 billion possible combinations

  • Unlockable items and vehicles, stat tracking, leaderboards, and more

  • Addictive 8-player online action with a variety of different team sizes and configurations

  • Amazing 2-, 3-, and 4-player splitscreen mode that can be played locally or taken online against other splitscreen players

  • Broadcast-quality replays that allow you to fast forward, rewind, or view the action from anywhere in the arena

  • Competitive cross-platform gameplay with PlayStation®4 and Xbox One users

a "single-player" experience? guessing like AI players will not be teammates and opponents. Some wicked features coming to this event though.

PC I don't see how this game is so popular. I haven't played it yet but I just don't understand. Can someone explain why this game is fun LOL


The game is incredibly fun if you give it a chance and take the time to learn the mechanics of the game. Its one of the few games out there that isnt pay to win and is strictly skill based and isnt riddled with bugs. There arent many people who can pick this game up and be good at it right from the start, which is what makes it fun because it is a game where individual skill really shines above others. Its free quite often and is only $20 otherwise. Dont knock it till you try it man, it really can be addicting.
