🔨 After making improvements to our bot detection methods, we have completed an initial ban wave on 5,500 accounts that were using bots to cheat in online matches over the past week.
We will continue to take action on players who disrupt fair play as we continue to take steps towards securing Rocket League's competitive integrity against cheaters, and more bans are coming.
Thank you for sticking with us as we continue to fight back against cheaters. 🙌
Hi everyone, we have several updates to share on the recent denial-of-service (DoS) server attacks that have affected Rocket League and our players.
We’ve deployed multiple changes to help better detect and defeat the methods used in DoS attacks over the last several weeks. Since these changes went out with update v2.51 last week, DoS reports from players have dropped significantly.
With new detection methods in place, we are instantly removing players who use these attacks from online matches, and then banning the accounts in waves.
In addition to the changes we’ve made, we've sent a Cease & Desist to a DoS tool distributor. We will not tolerate bad actors who ruin the experience for other players. Anyone caught distributing or using DoS tools will be banned and may face legal consequences.
We'll continue developing more ways to catch DoS exploits. Thank you for sticking with us while we’ve worked behind the scenes to solve this.
Xbox players, we know you haven’t had the best play experience since our Season 17 update. We’ve been hard at work and have now restored full 120 FPS support to Xbox systems. We are granting the following to players on all platforms as a thank you for your patience:
1️⃣ "120 FPS or Bust" Player Title
2️⃣ 2 Exotic Drops
3️⃣ 1 Black Market Drop
Log in and enjoy!

An update around DDOS protection measures and server improvements to Rocket League. We appreciate and thank you for your patience while we’ve worked through this.
You can read full details here: https://t.co/8R4df8xl9Y
Along with improving matchmaking quality for all players, we know server performance and DDOS match disruptions are top of mind for many of you. We're working towards the needed fixes for these DDOS disruptions, and we’re also mid-stream on changes to our server fleet.
We’ll share more on both of these when fixes and changes are complete. We appreciate the community’s patience while we work on these issues.
📢 As part of ongoing efforts to improve Competitive matchmaking for everyone and prevent some forms of smurfing, we're improving how we calculate skill for the initial placement matches in Competitive for players active across multiple modes and playlists.

Hey all - let's talk about the game we love, Rocket League.
The same team that has been supporting Rocket League is still cranking on updates coming to Rocket League in 2024, both the core game and RLCS. It's a bit too early to share details, but expect more news on that in the new year 🚀
Rocket Racing is not replacing Rocket League, and we’re excited to grow these games side-by-side with cross-game vehicle ownership between them.
