Rocket League Season 5 Launching November 17

By Jason Nieva @jnievaplayerone Published 11/15/21 EST

Season 5 of Rocket League is all set to be released this November 17. There’s going to be a lot of new content like a new Arena variant, Competitive Season, and of course, Rocket Pass, to name a few.

Let’s start with the new arena and it’s actually the Starbase Arc taken over by an evil force. Because of this, it has turned into the Starbase Arc (Aftermath).

Now before the Starbase Arc was invaded, it was guarded by the protector known as Nexus. This cadet has since been captured and transformed to become a master of the Rocket League. By getting the new Rocket Pass Premium, players can immediately unlock Nexus and its Plank hitbox. They can then go up the tiers to unlock the final transformation which is the Nexus SC.

Speaking of the new Rocket Pass, the one for Season 5 offers a lot of items including the Spacedirt Paint Finish and Hyperspace Animated Decal, which can transform with their car’s speed. There’s also a new Goal Explosion in Cosmosis.

On the day that the new season starts, players need to keep an eye out for an LTM with a new twist on Heatseeker. This is due to the new Labs Arenas which are Barricade, Colossus, and Hourglass.
