The scoreboard reads 3–3, the clock is bleeding seconds, and you realize one of the Rivals and Rockets challenges still sits unfinished. I felt that sting last night, racing through matches while friends queued for bounties. If you want every reward — including the Havoc car and the Dueling Jackie outfit — here’s the straight path to get them before the month closes.
I play Rocket League and follow Epic Games’ drop schedule closely; you can use this plan whether you queue solo or hop into a team on Discord or Twitch streams. I’ll walk you through each challenge, where to focus first, and how Fortnite quests feed Rocket League rewards.
When lobbies spike on event day — How to get all the Rivals and Rockets rewards in Rocket League
The Rivals and Rockets event launched Friday, April 17 and runs until the end of this month. I watched hourly lobbies swell on PC and consoles as players chased shared rewards from Epic Games and Psyonix.
There are five simple in-game challenges. Finish each to collect the Rocket League rewards listed below; complete every challenge and the crossover hands you the Dueling Jackie outfit for Fortnite.
- Hit the ball 50 times in Online Matches: 10,000 XP
- Get 5 Goals in Online Matches: 10,000 XP
- Get 15 Centers or Clears in Online Matches: 10,000 XP
- Play 5 Online Matches: 10,000 XP
- Win 5 Online Matches: Drippy Player Title
What rewards are in the Rocket League Rivals and Rockets event?
You earn XP for hitting the ball, scoring goals, making centers/clears, and just playing matches; win five games to grab the Drippy title. Finish all five challenges and Epic grants you the Dueling Jackie outfit for Fortnite. The Rocket League-only loot is primarily XP and the title—handy if you’re chasing ranks, Bounty Boards, or Rocket Pass progress.
The rewards are a treasure map: small, clear objectives that steer your play without wasting time. If you want to farm efficiently, prioritize match wins and the 50-ball-hits during matches where you can rotate and keep pressure steady.
On busy Fortnite islands where quests pile up — How to get the Havoc car in Rocket League
I tested the crossover quests in both Build and Zero-Build modes to confirm parity; Psyonix and Epic tied the Havoc car reward to Fortnite activity, not Rocket League playtime.
To put the Havoc car into your Rocket League garage, finish six Fortnite quests. They are straightforward and designed to be completed while you play normally:
- Visit 3 named locations.
- Search 25 chests and ammo boxes.
- Eliminate 15 opponents.
- Travel 1,000 metres in vehicles.
- Outlast 200 players.
- Reach the top 20 in different matches.
How do I get the Havoc car in Rocket League?
Play Fortnite and complete the six quests above in either mode. Once Epic registers the completions on your account, the Havoc car appears in both Rocket League and Fortnite inventories. I recommend stacking chest searches and vehicle travel in the same sessions to speed this up.
The Havoc car is a coiled spring ready to snap — it changes your playstyle more than cosmetics alone, and pairing it with decals or a preferred wheel set from Steam or the Epic Item Shop can make it feel brand-new.
Use Epic Games account linking if you haven’t already; it’s the quickest path to move rewards between Fortnite and Rocket League. If you stream or share clips on Twitch, tag them—community clips can show efficient routes for the chest and travel quests, and creators often highlight hot routes and named locations.
So tell me: which reward are you chasing first, the Drippy title and XP grind or the cross-play Havoc car?
