Game Modes
The point of Rocket Rumble is less to "win" the race, but more-so to pass each checkpoint first. Players receive 10 points for passing a checkpoint first, 5 for everyone after. No points are given if a player dies.

Race through 2 procedurally generated tracks: Caustic Canyon and Asteroid Field.

Quick Play
Queue for an online match with random players - single player only. Vote between 2 tracks each time. After the race ends, return to the main menu. When searching for a game, press Y or “C” to leave the queue.

Party Play
  • Play with a local or Steam Party
  • Press A on a controller or Enter on the Keyboard to add a new local player
  • Press X to open the party manager and add/remove Steam party members

Starting a Party:
Local: Rocket Rumble can support up to 4 local players, one of which can use the keyboard. Press A on a new controller, or “Enter” on the main menu to join a local party. The game will randomly generate pet names for any new local players.


Steam: Press X on a controller or “X” on the keyboard to open your Steam friends list to invite them. While in the Steam menu you can also remove players by going to the manage party tab.

What about info on the power-ups? I always forget what they do. I just know the red one is a mine.
