Rocket League is one of the premier games when it comes to cosmetics and customization. The game has been around since 2015 and since then Epic Games / Psyonix has added thousands of cosmetics to the game. When we think about the best items in Rocket League, we are judging based on looks, rarity, and price. Let’s take a look at our picks for the best items you need to own in Rocket League.

The Halo has been a staple of Rocket League design for years because of its ability to be universally used with any design. Most players go after the painted versions of the Halo topper to match the color scheme of their current design.

- PSN: 700 - 800 credits

13 /15
Mage Glass III Antenna
Rock shades on the pitch like a true Rocket League garage icon.
- PC: 50 - 70 credits
- PSN: 80 - 100 credits
- Xbox: 100 - 150 credits
- Switch: 200 - 300 credits
Many players do not use antennas on their cars, but we think you should consider the Mage Glass III for your next preset. Epic Games knocked it out of the park with this antenna and if you completed part 59 of Rocket Pass season 1 then you already own this beauty.
14 /15

15 /15
Octane Huntress Decal
The Huntress series of decals is a must-have for any design enthusiasts.
- PC: N/A credits
