Rocket League Rocket Pass 3 Week 5 challenges
As has been the case for a few weeks now, there is a new batch of challenges to take on this week in Rocket League. Completing a challenge will unlock you a set number of Tier Points, either three, five, or eight, to be precise. You will have until May 21 to complete all of the challenges.
Regardless of whether or not you own the Free or Premium Rocket Pass Track, you can try to complete all of the weekly challenges. If you don’t own the Premium Rocket Pass Track, you can complete them, but you won’t earn the rewards until you buy the Premium Track.
The Rocket Pass 3 Week 5 challenges are as follows:
Rocket Pass 3 Week 5 Free Challenges and Rewards
- Chaos Reigns: Score a Goal in a Casual 4v4 Online Match | Reward: Three Tier Points
- Extra Deadly: Score 5 total Goals in any Extra Mode Playlist | Reward: Five Tier Points

As you can see from the challenges above, none of them should cause you much (if any) trouble. Just make sure you play the game enough in the correct Online Playlists and with the correct equipment and you should complete all six challenges quickly enough. Remember, you will need to complete matches before anything you do counts towards challenge completion. No quitting for you.
These challenges have been leaked ahead of official reveal. While they have proven accurate before, they are subject to change. We will update this post accordingly if anything changes.

10 Rocket League Tips and Tricks for Rocket Pass 3
As we venture towards the fourth anniversary of Rocket League, we can't help but marvel at its continued success. This is a prime example of service games at their best, and it's still getting updates. Want an advantage while grinding out Rocket Pass 3? Here are some tips and tricks. -
Use the Handbrake
Don't be afraid to use the handbrake! Just like in real motorsports, the handbrake can be a great tool for carving around corners and avoiding disastrous wrecks. Driving in Rocket League can take some time to get a handle on, so mastering this move will set you apart. -
Don't Drive Backwards
Similar to the Handbrake, driving backward is another bad habit that's easy to fall into. In most car games, just reversing to get out of trouble works fine, but since Rocket League arenas are circular, it's almost always more efficient to keep going and turn around. Going in reverse just slows you down. -
Conserve Boost Whenever Possible
Once you're heading the right direction, managing your boost is key to driving at a different level. Once you see purple, stop boosting! It's the maximum speed you'll achieve with your vehicle, and any further boosting is just wasting your stock. Save your boost for tricks or aerials, if you can pull them off. -
Don't Showboat with Aerials
In the hands of a skilled player, aerials can be a powerful tool. However, going for them when you're not ready can just lead your team to defeat. Unless you know what you're doing, don't try out these advanced tricks. Stick to the ground-based moves you're used to. -
Shoot With Your Nose
That being said, if you are going to shoot the ball in the air, hit it with your nose. Due to the design of Rocket League's physics, the nose of the car is the best place to put some punch behind your shot. A simple flip can lead to an easy goal. -
Bind Your Controls
If you're playing with a controller, you may have to tweak your settings to get the full potential out of your moves. Rocket League has several options that just aren't mapped on a standard gamepad, including vital air rolls that could make the difference between a skilled novice and a learning journeyman. -
Choose The Right Car
Rocket League has plenty of different Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars to choose from, and they all function a bit differently on the field. Bigger cars can be more aggressive while smaller frames can open up opportunities for nimble maneuvers. It's all up to how you want to play. -
Don't Mindlessly Follow the Ball
When you're just starting out, it can be easy to stick to prioritize following the ball to keep in the action. However, if you've ever watched a game of real soccer, you know that the best teams don't have a trail of bodies doing a conga line around the field. Communicate with your team and pick a position that works best. -
Dribble (And Pass) Side to Side
If you do end up being on the ball, be sure to dribble from side to side. Don't just mindlessly push ahead, as that's easy for an enemy to predict, instead knock the ball around a bit open up places where you can pass to an open teammate in need. -
Be a Team Player
Of course, the biggest tip for playing Rocket League is to be a team player. This is truly a team sport, which means that success will come to those groups who stick together and work things out. If you know where your teammates are, you can work as a unit and boost towards victory.
