Online 
  • “Ranked” Playlist has been renamed “Competitive” Playlist
    • Season 1 has ended! Limited Edition Crowns have been distributed to all participants in Season 1 Ranked Play based on your highest division across all Ranked playlist when Season 1 ends.
    • Competitive Skill Divisions have replaced Rank Points and the Season 1 Ranking System. There are twelve skill divisions. Over time you can be promoted or demoted between divisions based on your performance.
    • Top 100 Leaderboards are now based on your skill rating, similar to the Preseason.
    • Placement matches have been implemented. For each ranked queue, you play ten placement games and are then sorted into a skill division based on your performance.
  • Ranked Reconnect has been added to the game. Players who lose connection during a competitive rocket league match will now be given the option to reconnect to their previous game.
  • “Rocket Labs” experimental playlist is now available for casual Online play
    • A new rotating casual playlist called “Rocket Labs” is now available! Labs features prototype layouts that use temporary art assets. This allows us to release and gather feedback on new designs much more rapidly than we could otherwise.
    • Three Lab Maps are now available in the “Rocket Labs” playlist and Private Matches:
      • Underpass
      • Utopia Retro
      • Double Goal
  • New “Uncommon” Item Drops will now be found uncommonly after online matches. This “Uncommon” item quality features all-new Hats and Antennas for you to discover and equip!
    • Unlike previous seasonal rare drops, these new items don’t have a fixed drop chance after each match. Your chances to find an item after a game will increase for every minute you play until you find something, and then your chance will reset.
    • Uncommon unlocks are only only awarded after a complete game in online playlists (They are not available for unlock offline modes or in Private matches)
    • Multiple copies of the same “Uncommon” item can be collected, illustrated with a count number in the Garage UI
    • There is a maximum of ten hours of playtime per week that can earn items, so don’t bother trying to idle your way to a full inventory!
  • (BETA) Player Reporting option has been added and can be accessed via the mid-game menu. You can report players who are being offensive and the full chat log of the match will be submitted along with your report for administrative review.
