Rocket League Airstrike Goal Explosion may have the coolest feature yet

Jimmy Russo

One of the new cosmetics as a part of the Rocket League Season 2 Item Series is the Airstrike Goal Explosion that demolishes all nearby cars.

Rocket League has always had some awesome cosmetics, but the addition of unique Goal Explosions may have been their coolest idea. The concept is nearly endless, and Psynoix have been adding new features with each cosmetic set.

This is no different in the Season 2 Item Series, which is now available via blueprints. Some of the items in this series include the Exalter Decale, Medianic and Brocado Wheels, and, of course, the Air Strike Goal Explosion.

Upon first glance, the Explosion doesn’t look like anything too special. As the name suggests, it sends an airstrike into the goal after someone scores.

When you see the effects in-game, however, you realize why this will be one of the most sought-after cosmetics in the Season 2 Item Series. The Airstrike detonates all cars – friend or foe – within range of the goal.

For now, you’ll need to earn the Airstrike Coal Explosion in a Blueprint, which you can receive by playing matches and ranking up the Rocket Pass.

Based on some of the previous seasons, we should see the Airstrike Goal Explosion – and all of the other cosmetics from the Season 2 Item Series – enter the Item Shop at some point. Make sure to check the tab frequently so you don’t miss out on one of the coolest Goal Explosions in the game.
