Available now on iOS and Android, Rocket League Sideswipe Season 4 adds a new Mutator Madness game mode along with a new Rocket Pass, Arena, and Crossover event.
Mutator Madness
Headlining Rocket League Sideswipe Season 4 is the Mutator Madness game mode.

Players can upvote or downvote the randomised mutator settings at the end of the match. The mutator with the most votes will then be playable on the weekend with a double XP boost.
In addition to the new Mutator Madness mode, 2v2 Hoops is back in Rocket League Sideswipe by popular demand with ranked matches.
