Celebrate the Year of the Ox in Rocket League's Lucky Lanterns in-game event! Lucky Lanterns is LIVE right now, so start completing Event Challenges and unlocking themed items now through March 1! Check out some of the event items and the beautiful new Arena variant, Forbidden Temple (Day), in the Lucky Lanterns trailer above.

Unlock items like the Lucky Cat and Ozzy Ox Toppers, Lantern Lift and Cherry Blossom Boosts, Temple Guardian Player Banner, and more! Take a look in the slideshow below. Plus, get lucky with Golden Lanterns that unlock items from the Velocity, Triumph, and Overdrive Series. 

If you're looking for even more items to celebrate the occasion, stop by the Item Shop for the free Short Fuse Player Banner (available now) and Shen Avatar Border on February 22. While you're there, take a look for the Lantern Lift and the now-Painted Paper Dragon Goal Explosions, which will both make an appearance for a limited time.

Lucky Lanterns will also feature two Limited Time Modes: Heatseeker and Super Cube! Heatseeker is ready for launch and is live right now. Then Super Cube bounces into the mix on February 22. Super Cube marks the return of the Cubic mode that was first featured in Rocket League back in 2015, here's what you can expect from this LTM. 

Super Cube is a goofy mode that messes with mutators and changes the shape of the Rocket League ball. Like the name suggests, the ball has been replaced by a cubic shape, and its maximum speed and bounciness have increased. Good luck trying to predict its bounces! Here's the full schedule for Lucky Lanterns LTMs:

  • Heatseeker 2v2: February 11 - February 22
  • Super Cube 3v3: February 22 - March 1

So, jump into Lucky Lanterns starting today and enjoy all the Lunar New Year festivities! Good luck!
