How to Get Free Rocket League Items

Like many other online competitive games, Rocket League features many different cosmetic items. There are many rare items that you can use to modify your car and give it some extra character. Players can choose from a very wide selection of different items to change virtually any aspect of their car.

While many of the most impressive Rocket League items are very rare (or cost a lot of credits in the item shop), you can actually get many great parts for your car absolutely free. Here are some of the methods you can use to get free items in Rocket League.

Raffles

Many Rocket League websites hold item raffles as a form of promotion. These raffles work exactly the same way any other type of raffle does. You generally have to pay some type of entry fee, most often either RL credits or items, which increases the total prize pool and makes you eligible for the lottery. Depending on the individual rules you might be allowed to purchase many entries into the raffle, which can increase your chance of securing a win, or you might be allowed to participate in the raffle for free.

Free raffles are a great way to get new Rocket League items, particularly because they take almost zero effort and can easily give you free cosmetics. Most free raffles require you to simply follow their social media pages or share something to your profiles in order to enter the raffle. Still, they are a great method to get Rocket League free items.

Rocket League Codes

Many real-life events or purchases often reward players with promotional Rocket League codes. These promo codes can either give you free cosmetics or Rocket League credits. While in the past you could easily redeem Rocket League codes and get free items (such as the WWE banners or Shazam limited decal), currently only the ‘popcorn’ promo code is available, rewarding you with the Popcorn rocket boost.

While many of the codes are already expired, there are many other codes, besides the free ones, that were handed out to players, or that they came across while playing the game. In many cases, some of the players might be feeling generous and will share their active Rocket League codes with others, through Reddit, online forums, or social media. You’ll have to stay fast to nab these codes though, as they are mostly shared on a first-come-first-serve basis. Still, new Rocket League codes can always appear, so you have to keep a lookout if you want to redeem codes.

Rocket Pass

One of the easiest ways to get free cosmetics in Rocket League is to simply play the game. Whenever you play a match or complete any of the challenges or quests, you get rocket pass points. When you get enough of these points you will level up, which can reward you with specific cosmetics, as well as Rocket League drops, which can even reward you with rare and expensive items like the Breakout Nitro Circus decal and antenna.

Rocket Pass is the most straightforward method of unlocking new free items in the game, especially since you can always easily check which items you will get. Most rocket passes also include rare and great-looking cosmetics, so if you want to add some new to your inventory, leveling up the rocket pass is a great starting place.

Events

There are many events happening on a regular basis in Rocket League. Whether it’s large eSports tournaments, real-life holidays, or just on-time events celebrating some important element of Rocket League, these most often reward players with free Rocket League items to let them celebrate together. These most often include decals, but also avatar borders, banners, and in some cases even entire car bodies.

It’s difficult to predict what free items will exactly be given with every update, though it’s safe to assume that every update that drops into the game will bring some new free items with it.

To Sum Up

There are many different methods you can use to obtain free items in Rocket League. Although you can choose to buy credits and get cosmetics in the item store, if you’re a free-to-play Rocket League player, you’ll be able to build up your collection easily, without having to spend tons of money on great-looking cosmetics.
