The summer fun continues in Rocket League with the latest culture celebration now live on all platforms. This "radical" phase of summer adds in a Spike Rush game mode and new items. Here's a rundown, courtesy of the news release:
Spike Rush Game Mode - Spike Rush is a 3v3 mode where each player has the Spike power-up from Rumble Mode that can be activated to carry the ball up field.
New Culture Items in Radical Summer Event Store - New in-game items highlighting the iconic culture of the ‘80s, like the Brick Phone Topper and Cassette Wheels, will be available in Radical Summer’s Event Store.
Event items are able to be redeemed with cassettes earned from online matches. When the culture celebration ends on 21st July, the event store will refresh with new items for the television celebration of Radical Summer, which runs until 12th August. These items will also be available when the summer event ends. For more information, check out the official event page.

That's steller, Brah! Cannot wait to shred some big waves. Pray they be free, not very liquid right now, ya catch my drift?
I have put more hours into RL than any other game in my life. And i still enjoy it and want to to improve.
Though i dont play it on the switch much.
Now that Epic owns psyonix, my only dream is that they bring RL to mobile with full controller support!
Still play this fairly regularly. Probably in my top 5 favourite games this generation.
Pretty sweet that you're covering it now it's been open for almost a month.
@YANDMAN i think they covered it when it began. However this update is because the event is broken in 3 stages with different items available each stage.
This is the start of phase 2, hence the article.
recently got back into it (on the Switch) and am hooked all over again. It's the perfect game to play a few casual matches at a time in short bursts. The summer event is good fun. Spike mode is pretty cool.
By far my most played game on Switch. Still hopelessly addicted and no sign of slowing down. Getting waaaay overloaded on items now, looking forward to the inventory management changes they've promised.
All current working redeem codes. Type them in them as I have below.

I can't believe I have been playing this game for more than a year and a half and feel no need to slow down. I also would put Rocket League in my top 5 games. The game is great!
My advice would be: if you haven’t played RL - don’t. It will ruin your life. I’m so hopelessly addicted. Just one more game!
@YANDMAN Your reading comprehension skills are stellar. It's the phase of culture celebration now. Television celebration is next. And they did cover it when movies celebration started.
@Dizzy_Boy Thanks. shazam didn't do anything, though.
@Dahn_ Reading is pointless when i have peole like you to correct me.
@SegaBlueSky I've probably played you and been frustratingly beaten.
No problem. Take the shot!
How's the controls playing handheld mode, I play a lot on osr but would like to get it for the switch aswell
@YANDMAN Haha, much more likely you've been playing on my team and been frustratingly beaten. Just about scraped Diamond on 3v3 now so not too bad but hardly top tier either!
@playstation_king what is “osr”?
Handheld mode is the only way i dont feel input lag, but with the joycons i cant play near as well as with a full size controller.
I play on my laptop at 720p with all setting lowest. It looks atrocious but the feel of the game is much better than on switch, control-wise.
@konbinilife sorry was quickly typing, meant to say ps4 lol yeah exactly what I'm worried about playing with the joycons may not feel right, which doesn't help as I'd want rocket for the switch specifically just for hand held mode as I have the ps4 version for tv play
@SegaBlueSky I've only been playing the game for about four weeks on and off now and it is one of the most frustrating, but then rewarding and ultimately exhilarating games you can experience. I'm much better than i was but still not good. The thing is about it is i never really feel like quitting. If i'm 6-1 down i will still hang out and take the defeat and learn.
@Ttimer5
Dude, its like gonna be totally tubular
@MrGrim some of the codes they had before were only available for a limited time, maybe shazam is not redeemable anymore.
@Dizzy_Boy thanks!!! How does this not have 100 likes!
@YANDMAN
Dont ever quit! Keep that attitude
I have over 1500 hours in RL and I’m been annoyed the entire journey at teammates that try to forfeit once you’re down a goal. Haha
This seems to be a robust Rocket League community. I'm as addicted as all of you here. I mostly game on the Switch because of its portability. Looking for some adds.
