Psyonix is elaborating on Rocket League's upcoming Blueprints system, which will replace randomized loot crates before year's end. The developer is releasing details on the new system in batches, first announcing plans to eliminate loot boxes from Rocket League in August, and then revealing the new Blueprints system last month, and now expanding on the details including what can and can't be traded.
At some point in December, Rocket League will receive an update that replaces randomized loot crates with Blueprints. After each online game, you'll be given the chance to grab a blueprint for a specific item, which you can create immediately using credits, trade with a friend, or save for later. Credits are Rocket League's new premium currency, which means they can be bought using real-world money. To be clear, the item the blueprint creates will be clearly listed before you choose to obtain it, so there's a little more transparency with this new system.
Anyway, in Rocket League, Crates will stick around until the December update, and when it does, Rocket League keys will be converted into Credits. Crates, too, will be converted into Blueprints “of the same series,” Pysonix said. Before Crates go, though, there’s one last Crate in Rocket League: the Vindicator Crate, which “will feature the new Sentinel Battle-Car and Neuro-Agitator Goal Explosion.” More details on the Blueprint conversion process will come “in the next few months.” If you need

Psyonix will announce more about the end of crates in the coming months. Prior to the switchover, it's releasing one last crate, the Vindicator Crate, this week on October 3 (the car at the top of this post is one of the items it'll contain). It's up to you whether to throw keys at it, or wait for it and all your other crates to turn into blueprints.
Meanwhile, changes are afoot for Rocket League trade-ins. When the new cosmetics system is up and running, you won't be able to trade in paid-for items from blueprints, the item shop or older ones you got from crates. You'll still be able to trade in items from free post-game drops. Psyonix reckons blueprints will offer more transparency about the digital goods you're buying. A major criticism of loot boxes is that you don't really know what goodies they contain. Some jurisdictions and regulators believe they're a form of gambling.
