Psyonix has announced that trading in Rocket League is to be no more come December. These types of items will no longer be tradeable after December 5, 2023:

  • Revealed Blueprints
  • Items built from Blueprints on the same platform
  • Items received from Crates received prior to the Blueprint system
  • Credits (Only 1 player may trade Credits)
    You may trade up to 100,000 Credits
  • Free post-game Drops
  • Rocket Pass Premium items from Pro Tiers (Tiers 71 and above)
  • Free Rocket Pass Items
  • Items from in-game events (Haunted Hallows, Frosty Fest, etc.)

The update is coming to "align with Epic's overall approach to game cosmetics and item shop policies, where items aren’t tradable, transferrable, or sellable", which they say may open up opportunities for your Rocket League cars in other games, which supports cross-game ownership. Cross-game ownership of items is a commonly cited feature of the infamous NFTs powered by blockchain ownership, but has never really taken off due to the shady nature of crypto currencies and not very many worthwhile titles supporting digital blockchain-based items - and of course the insane transaction fees.

Epic is clearly building out their own "metaverse" and slowly bringing all the pieces together. With today's news, it certainly won't be long before you can use some of your Rocket League vehicles as a Fortnite vehicle skin.

If you loaned out any items, you're going to want to get them back as soon as possible because Epic and Psyonix will not be able to reverse any trades as they are considered final. Read on for more info in their frequently asked questions.

Rocket League Trading FAQ

Quote From Rocket League

Player-to-Player Trading will be removed from Rocket League on December 5 at 4 p.m. PST.

We’re making this change to align with Epic’s overall approach to game cosmetics and item shop policies, where items aren’t tradable, transferrable, or sellable. This opens up future plans for some Rocket League vehicles to come to other Epic games over time, supporting cross-game ownership.

A: The Trade-In system for Core Items, Tournament Items, and Blueprints will allow players to continue trading in eligible duplicate or unwanted items to receive a random new item of higher rarity.

A: These actions are not supported by Psyonix and all trades are considered final. Our support team cannot help reverse trades.
