Rocket League Lucky Lanterns 2021 Limited Time Modes

Rocket League will also offer not one, but two Limited Time Modes (or LTMs) during the event. 

Lucky Lanterns will showcase the beloved Heatseeker mode in its 2v2 format from 11-22nd February and an old friend of Psyonix -- Super Cube 3v3 from 22nd February to 1st March.

Super Cube is described as a goofy game mode that hasn’t seen the light of day in Rocket League servers since its inception in 2015. It features the game ball being replaced by a cubic shape, and its maximum speed and bounciness have increased.

Rocket League Lucky Lanterns 2021 Item Shop

With a free player banner Short Fuse, a free Shen avatar border up for grabs in the item shop and the return of the highly-exclusive Lantern Lift and Paper Dragon goal explosions (and its painted cousins) to buy for a limited time, the item shop will be loaded to say the least, so keep an eye out for those!
