Rocket League – Mods, Trainers, and the Easy Anti-Cheat Reality

About This Mod

Introduction
Rocket League has long been defined by a powerful community modding scene, with BakkesMod at its heart. However, a major shift occurred in April 2026 when Psyonix implemented mandatory Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) for all online play on PC . This change split the modification landscape into two distinct paths: online play with EAC active and no mods, or offline play with EAC disabled and full mod support . This guide covers the available modification tools, the current state of BakkesMod, and the critical importance of understanding the online/offline divide.

BakkesMod: The Essential Modding Framework
BakkesMod is a third-party modding and training toolkit that injects into Rocket League and adds features beyond what the base game offers . Its plugin ecosystem has grown to include over 800 community-created plugins, with more than 750,000 daily users and over 1.5 million weekly users at its peak .

Key BakkesMod Features (Plugin-Dependent):

Advanced Custom Training: Shot scripting, mechanical drill tools, and granular training scenarios

Visual Customization: Hitbox visualizers, stadium color changes, ad board replacements, and HUD modifications

Replay Tools: Advanced free camera controls and replay editing workflows

Title Customization: Client-side title text, text color, glow color, and tournament rank icon editing

Match Administration: Score control, match pause/unpause, and reset to kickoff functions (LAN matches only)

Workshop Map Enhancements: Additional functionality layered on top of Steam Workshop maps

The Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) Update
What Changed
In April 2026, Psyonix made Easy Anti-Cheat mandatory for all online play on PC, including ranked, casual, private matches, and in-game tournaments . When EAC is active, BakkesMod and all third-party mods are blocked . The system uses advanced behavioral analysis and proactive detection techniques to prevent cheating and botting .

The Offline Compromise
To allow players to still use mods for offline purposes, Psyonix added a "Launch without Anti-Cheat" option . This disables online play but restores full mod support, including BakkesMod, for training, video production, and LAN matches .

Which BakkesMod Features Are Now Native
Psyonix has integrated several popular BakkesMod features directly into the base game, making them EAC-compatible :

Native MMR Display: View your Matchmaking Rating in-game without a third-party tool

Custom Training Randomization: Shuffle training pack shots for more dynamic practice

Free Play Team Colors: Customize team colors in Free Play without a plugin

Psyonix officially credited Bakkes and the BakkesMod volunteer developer community for pioneering these features .

The End of Active Development
Following the EAC announcement, the creator of BakkesMod announced the end of active development on the project . With the development team having moved on from the game and the EAC change providing a natural endpoint, the mod will no longer receive updates, though older versions remain available .

Standalone Trainers
For players seeking simpler score or boost modifications, standalone trainers are available. A 5-cheat trainer offers Unlimited Boost, Add 10 Player 1 Score, Subtract 10 Player 1 Score, Add 10 Player 2 Score, and Subtract 10 Player 2 Score . These trainers are designed for offline or single-player use only and carry significant risk of permanent bans if used in online play .

Installation Instructions:

Download the trainer from a trusted source (the WeMod version auto-updates after game patches)

Launch Rocket League first, then run the trainer

Use the designated hotkeys to activate functions

Important Notes:

Trainers are for single-player/offline use only; online use risks a permanent ban

Antivirus software may flag trainers as false positives

Cheat Engine Tables
Cheat Engine tables provide more granular control over specific game values. Tables are available with features including Infinite Boost, Player 999 Goals, Enemy Zero Goals, and score editing for Exhibition and Season modes . These tables are explicitly intended for local play only and do not work in online matchmaking .

Installation Instructions:

Download and install Cheat Engine

Double-click the .CT table file to open it

Click the PC icon and select the Rocket League game process

Activate options by checking boxes or setting values from 0 to 1

Third-Party Mobile Apps
For players seeking training assistance without modifying the game, the RocketTrainer app is available on iOS and iPadOS . It provides predefined drills, custom drill creation, and statistics tracking. Crucially, the app does not modify or interact with the Rocket League game in any way, making it safe for use alongside online play .

Using BakkesMod After the EAC Update
To use BakkesMod after the EAC update :

Open Epic Games Launcher

Head to your Library

Right-click on Rocket League

Select "Launch without Anti-Cheat"

The game will warn about EAC being disabled, but it can safely be dismissed. Once launched this way, BakkesMod will inject as normal . Note that with EAC disabled, you cannot queue for online matchmaking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will using a trainer get me banned in Rocket League?
A: Yes. Using any trainer, Cheat Engine table, or modification in online play will result in a permanent ban. Trainers and mods are strictly for offline training, local play, and LAN matches with EAC disabled .

Q: Can I still use BakkesMod after the EAC update?
A: Yes, but only in offline mode. You must launch the game without EAC from the Epic Games Launcher. BakkesMod will work normally for training and LAN matches .

Q: What BakkesMod features are now built into Rocket League?
A: Native MMR display, Custom Training Randomization, and Free Play Team Colors have been added to the base game and are EAC-compatible . Deeper features like advanced training plugins, camera customization, and replay tools still require BakkesMod with EAC disabled .

Q: Is BakkesMod still being updated?
A: No. The creator of BakkesMod announced the end of active development following the EAC update. Older versions remain available, but the mod will not receive future updates .

Q: Why does my antivirus flag trainers as threats?
A: Trainers modify game memory, triggering heuristic detection from antivirus software. This is generally a false positive if the tool is from a trusted source, but these tools also violate the game's Terms of Service .

Conclusion
Rocket League's modification landscape has fundamentally changed with the introduction of mandatory Easy Anti-Cheat. BakkesMod, once a staple of the PC experience, is now confined to offline use, with native features replacing its most popular QoL functions . Standalone trainers and Cheat Engine tables carry significant risk and are not recommended for online play .

For players seeking to customize their Rocket League experience, the only safe path is to launch without EAC and use BakkesMod exclusively for offline training and LAN matches. For online play, the native features now provide many of the most requested BakkesMod capabilities without the need for third-party tools.
