Rocket League Modes of May event will add different modes each weekend throughout the next month

Psyonix has announced a new event taking place in Rocket League throughtout the month of May, and that event is simply titled Modes of May. During each weekend a different variant event will take place, starting from May 1st with Dropshot Rumble. In Dropshot Rumble the two modes have merged, so you’ll have access to the power ups from Rumble mixed with the action from Dropshot. Following on from Dropshot Rumble will be Beach Ball where the ball will be much more floaty. This will be a 2v2 event. Then there is Boomer Ball though full details have yet to be confirmed. Finally, there will be the return of the Heatseeker mode.

All the relevant dates are below.

  • May 1 – May 4: Dropshot Rumble

  • May 7 – May 11: Beach Ball

  • May 14 – May 18: Boomer Ball

  • May 21 – May 26: Heatseeker

Psyonix confirmed a few more practical details regarding the modes:

“Each mode will begin at 9 a.m. PDT (4 p.m. UTC) on their respective launch days, and will end at 9 a.m. PDT (4 p.m. UTC) on their end dates. Like other Limited Time Modes, each mode will be Unranked and found in a separate tab in the Play Online menu. They will also grant the same amount of XP as all other Online Playlists, so you’ll still Tier Up your Rocket Pass 6 level as usual.”
