It looks like random Crates will be exiting Rocket League in the near future.
Taking to the official Rocket League blog, the Psyonix team (and Epic Games) professed that it will be taking these crates out of the game soon and replacing them with a system that will instead show the items you're purchasing ahead of time so there's no mystery involved.
"Here at Psyonix, and Epic Games as a whole, we are dedicated to creating the best possible experience for our players all over the world. In pursuit of that goal, later this year we will remove all paid, randomized Crates from Rocket League, replacing them with a system that shows the exact items you’re buying in advance. This is similar to changes implemented earlier this year by the Fortnite Save the World team," the blog post reads.
For now, the team says, Rocket Pass Premium, DLC cars, and Esports Shop items will be available for purchase as part of the new system. The team will be announcing new timelines and specifics on what's rolling out further over the coming months, but for now it looks like there won't be any additional randomization mechanics going forward for now.
We'll keep you apprised of any changes that come down the line regarding these Crate changes and whatever the teams decide to do with the new system on its way out. It'll be interesting to see how the game handles a similar system from here.
