Hello all! This thread will be used for information on the
Rocket League Season 3 June Update!
This update will be released sometime towards the end of June and comes with a few new interesting features such as:
Season Two Rewards
With the end of Season Two brings some rewards to players based on their highest skill tier achieved. The rewards are as follows:
Examples of each can be seen here
**Note that you will also achieve the rewards for every skill tier below your highest. If your highest, for example, is Rising Star, you will receive the Rising Star reward as well as the Challenger and Prospect awards.
Skill Wipe
For the new season, everyone's skill rating will be erased. This means that everyone will have a fresh start; a clean slate. Everyone will be the same rank from the start and work their way back up.
New Quick Chat Features
Another feature being introduced with the June update are more choices being introduced for the Quick Chat feature. Now you can go into your Options under the "Chat" tab and choose from 27 new Quick Chat options in order to customize your Quick Chats to your liking.
The full new Quick Chat list is as follows:
Another feature introduced alongside the new Quick Chats are Post-Game Quick Chats. After the game ends, you can choose from these eight new Quick Chats:
Post-Game Spotlights
With the new update, there will now be a post-game spotlight screen for the winning team, showcasing each car and allowing you to jump, spin, and boost to your heart's content. Additionally there will be some stats about the match just below your battle-car. Here are just 8 out of the 20+ categories:
Other News
1. The Rocket League: Collector's Edition will be arriving on June 24th in Europe and July 5 in North America. This disc-based version will debut at $29.99 USD on PC (Steam), PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Here are the features that will come with the Collector's Edition:
2. New steps will be taken by Psyonix to prevent smurfing. Starting in season three, Steam Family Sharing will no longer be allowed when queueing together. Additionally, players will not be able to queue together if they have a skill difference of more than three tiers ("For example, if you?re a Rising Star (Tier 9), you could play with a friend in Challenger II (Tier 6), or a friend in Superstar (Tier 12), but you won?t be able to play with both at the same time ? as the overall skill difference for that party would be 6 tiers.")
So, what do you guys think? Personally I'm very excited about the new update, especially the new Quick Chats! More information will be added as it comes out.
Oh, and there's a new Rocket Labs map with pillars. Forgot about that. This thread is too long already and Pepper is bugging me to play.

It'll be a bit better once the higher ranked players start separating themselves out.
