Rocket League Removing Player-to-Player Trading in December

Epic Games have announced they will be removing player-to-player trading in December for Rocket League. The Rocket League subreddit is filled with angry fans, many of whom saw this coming back in 2019 when Epic Games bought developer Psyonix.

We’re making this change to align with Epic’s overall approach to game cosmetics and item shop policies, where items aren’t tradable, transferrable, or sellable. This opens up future plans for some Rocket League vehicles to come to other Epic games over time, supporting cross-game ownership.

The FAQ states players can continue trading in eligible duplicate or unwanted Core Items, Tournament Items and Blueprints and receive a random new item of higher quality. After December 5, players will not be able to trade items between accounts from popular third-party trading websites and servers either.
