If Fortnite & Rocket League had a car baby...
Fortnite, the popular online multiplayer game, has teamed up with Psyonix to bring you an adrenaline-pumping new experience: Rocket Racing! Imagine what would happen if you took rocket-powered cars outside the Arena — the result is a dangerous and exhilarating race without limits. Rocket Racing combines the high-speed action of Rocket League with the dynamic world of Fortnite, giving players a whole new way to enjoy their favorite cars and compete against opponents. In this article, we’ll dive deep into Rocket Racing, exploring the gameplay, cross-game ownership, and customization options available to players.
Rocket Racing: A New Arcade Racer
Rocket Racing takes the rocket-powered cars from Rocket League and introduces them to the world of Fortnite. These cars are anything but ordinary — they can fly, flip, and even drive on walls. With Rocket Racing, players can unleash their skills and push the limits of what these cars can do. Race past opponents, master gravity-defying stunts, and climb the ranks to become the ultimate Rocket Racing champion.
To get started with Rocket Racing, all you need is a copy of Fortnite, which is available for free across multiple platforms. Once you have Fortnite installed, you can jump into the Rocket Racing game mode and start experiencing the thrill of high-speed racing like never before.

Use Your Rocket League Cars in Rocket Racing
If you’re a fan of Rocket League, you’ll be pleased to know that you can use your favorite cars from the game in Rocket Racing. Rocket Racing cars are composed of Car Bodies, Decals, and Wheels, and if you own an Octane, Cyclone, Jäger 619, or Lamborghini Huracán STO in your Rocket League garage, you’ll find them available for use in Rocket Racing and other Fortnite experiences.

The cross-game ownership feature allows you to seamlessly transfer your Rocket League items to Fortnite. Simply make sure you’re logged into Fortnite with the same Epic Games account you use to play Rocket League, and your cars, decals, and wheels will be waiting for you in your Fortnite Locker. This means you can take your Octane, Cyclone, Jäger 619, and Lamborghini Huracán STO on new adventures and show off your collection to other Rocket Racing players.
But it doesn’t stop there — Rocket Racing offers even more customization options for your cars. In addition to the car bodies, decals, and wheels from Rocket League, you’ll also find select decals and wheels you own in Rocket League available in your Fortnite Locker. This gives you the opportunity to personalize your ride and make it truly unique.
Growing Cross-Game Ownership
Cross-game ownership is just the beginning of the collaboration between Rocket League and Fortnite. The integration of Rocket League items into Fortnite opens up a world of possibilities for players. As the Rocket Racing experience evolves, more car bodies, decals, and wheels from Rocket League will be made available in Fortnite, allowing players to expand their cross-game collection and customize their cars even further.
