What is Spike Rush?

Spike Rush is a limited-time mode in Rocket League, first introduced during the ’80s Culture phase of the Radical Summer event in 2019. Since then, it has returned a few times in Rocket League and it is celebrated by the community every time it makes its comeback.

The mode is a classic 3v3 casual game mode with a sharp twist. The objective of the mode is to score the highest goal in five minutes. There are three things that are different in Spike Rush compared to the normal game mod: the net placement, the boost usage, and the obvious spikes coming out of your Decals.
