Psyonix has partnered with eleven Rocket League Championship Series (RLCS) teams for the Esports Shop pilot program, scheduled to go live on April 16, at 10:00 a.m. PDT. The shop will feature a daily revolving door of six in-game team items which can be purchased using new Esports Tokens.
Following the update on April 16, the Esports Shop will appear in the Main Menu under “Shop.” It will feature six in-game items each day and refresh at 12:00 p.m. PDT (7:00 p.m. UTC). Each item will have a timer displayed to show how long that item will appear in the Shop. Once the timer expires, a new Esports Shop item will take its place. Some items will be featured for 24 hours, while others will be featured for 48 hours.
Items from the Esports Shop will require a new currency called Esports Tokens. These Tokens will be sold in the following packs:
- 100 Tokens for $0.99 (or regional equivalent)
- 600 Tokens for $4.99 (or regional equivalent)
- 1200 Tokens for $9.99 (or regional equivalent)
- 2500 Tokens for $19.99 (or regional equivalent)
Items purchased in the Esports Shop are Premium and therefore, not tradable, nor are Esports Tokens. Esport Tokens can only be used in the Esports Shop. Items in the Esports Shop will start at 100 Esports Tokens.
