Rocket League Lucky Lanterns 2022 replaced by Neon Nights


Rocket League’s popularity is showing no signs of slowing down. To keep players on the pitch, developer Psyonix has done a phenomenal job updating Rocket League with new content over the years, and the next update should be Rocket League Lucky Lanterns 2022, but it's not...the annual Lucky Lanterns event usually celebrates the Lunar New Year, but for 2022 Psyonix is doing a different route.

Rocket League Lucky Lanterns 2022

In the 2021 Lucky Lanterns event, items including the Lucky Cat and Ozzy Ox Toppers, Lantern Lift and Cherry Blossom Boosts, and the Temple Guardian Player Banner were available to unlock.

Players could also claim a free Short Fuse Player Banner and Shen Avatar Border in the shop. For a limited time, other goodies like the Lantern Lift and Painted Paper Dragon Goal Explosions were available to buy in the Item Shop.
