Trade off unwanted 'Rocket League' gear for hats and profit

The ability to trade items among friends is coming in the future.

Psyonix

Cross-platform play is getting some fresh company with the new additions coming to the soccer-meets-vehicular-mayhem of Rocket League. As part of the game's next update, the developers at Psyonix say they're adding "rare" and "very rare" items (hats, paintjobs, etc..) that will augment a particular skill of yours. More than that, if you build up a collection of gear that you'd rather not use any more, have countless duplicates of or have found more powerful/uncommon versions of, soon you'll be able to trade items in for more prestigious implements.

Maybe best of all is news that trading gear among your friends will be possible too, and the loot might become even more valuable as it's passed from person to person. Rocket League's next patch is shaping up to be pretty sizable, and the developers tease that there will be even more info about it coming later this week. Party on, Wayne.
