The upcoming Rocket Pass is one of the biggest highlights of Rocket League Season 22. According to early previews, the premium pass will include three new vehicle bodies: BMW M2 Racing, Zefira, and Maven. Each vehicle is expected to use the Dominus hitbox and come with unlockable decals and customization options.
Alongside the vehicles, the Rocket Pass will feature exclusive cosmetics and accessories such as goal explosions, the Yard Marker Antenna, and the Checkers Topper. A Jordan Brand collaboration has also been previewed, you can unlock branded items by several ways such as Rocket Pass Premium, Item Shop and Limited Time Event.
How the Season 22 Ranked Reset Works

As usual, a soft rank reset will arrive in Rocket League at the beginning of the new season, which means players will start slightly below their previous rank.
To receive a rank, players must complete 10 placement matches across all different competitive game modes. The matchmaking rating (MMR) is adjusted during this process, but when you are queuing up for matches, you will likely face opponents close to your previous skill level.
New Tournaments and Events in Season 22

Beyond the standard ranked grind, the upcoming season will introduce several competitive events. Weekly tournaments with cash prizes are expected to return. Players will also be able to earn Tournament Credits, which can be exchanged for special cosmetic rewards.
The season will also introduce a new major event called Bracket Rivalry, where players can support their favorite content creator duos competing in the tournament. From March 20 to March 26, players can claim a free Player Title for a team they support in the Item Shop. While some details about these events remain limited, more information could appear once Rocket League Season 22 officially launches.
