Rocket League is a game that offers a lot of customization options for your car. You can change its body, wheels, decals, colors, and more. However, some of these items are not easy to get. They are locked inside crates, which are special loot boxes that contain random items of different rarities.
Crates are one of the ways to get new and exclusive items in the Rocket League. They can contain anything from decals, wheels, bodies, trails, goal explosions, banners, toppers, antennas, and more. Some of these items are very rare and valuable, such as black market decals or exotic wheels. Crates can also contain blueprints, which are plans for crafting specific items using credits.
However, crates are not free. You need to have keys or credits to open them. Keys are the old currency that was used before the blueprint update in 2019. Credits are the new currency that replaced keys and can be bought with real money or earned by trading items with other players. You need one key or 100 credits to open one crate.
So how do you get crates in Rocket League? There are several ways to do so:
Play online matches: This is the most common and easiest way to get crates. You have a chance to get a crate as a random drop after completing an online match. The drop rate is not very high, but it increases with the number of matches you play. You can get up to 10 crates per week this way.
Trade items with other players: This is another way to get crates if you have some items that you don't want or need. You can trade them with other players who have crates that you want. You can use external websites or platforms to find trading partners and negotiate deals. However, be careful of scammers and fraudsters who might try to trick you or steal your items.
Buy them from the in-game store: This is the most expensive and least recommended way to get crates. You can buy them from the in-game store using credits. However, this is not a good value for your money, as you might end up getting items that you don't like or already have. You are better off saving your credits for opening crates or crafting blueprints.
Once you have some crates, you can open them by going to your inventory and selecting the crate you want to open. You will see a spinning wheel that shows the possible items you can get from the crate. The wheel will stop randomly and reveal your item. The rarity of the item depends on the rarity of the crate and the luck factor.
