Not a bad deal if you're considering buying the game alone as it regularly sells for $26.95 - effectively pricing the 3-month Xbox Gold subscription at $3.05.
Don't forget to use discounted JB Hi-Fi giftcards if available.
Also, there are free games to be had with the "Games with Gold" promotion - free games every month with 1 Xbox One and 1 Xbox 360 game added every half-month.
You never know, they might screw up and send you a couple of free gift cards as well
Rocket League on Xbox One features cross-play with PC (and soon Nintendo) so there is massive online community!
It's pretty competitive though, but it's an easy game to get into.
Results may vary
or get it for the pc and avoid having to pay a monthly subscription to play it.
Dont need a subscription to play. Maybe for online play only.
Correct, a subscription (Xbox Gold) is required to play online. Not needed for single-player/offline multiplayer.
cause rocket league is renown for it's amazing story campaign.
@QuickdraW: i know why you're getting downvotes and it's dumb. I own the game on both platforms, there's no way I'd play it offline lol.
The most fun is 2's or 3's so are you really gonna have 3-5 mates over to play it?
The bots in RL are terribly unreliable too.
@Putnum: My kids play against each other. No online subscription necessary for them to have a heap of fun.
Just paid via PayPal still says it's pending but usually quick
I actually did this last week, I needed a fresh subscription to tide me over between then and when Big W's Toy sale starts (12 month subscriptions under $64!!) and was only intending on buying the month for $10.95. Saw that they were offering a Rocket League code with a 3 month subscription and pounced. I don't know why as I already own Rocket League on the ps4 and pc (paid for it on pc, got it for free on ps4) AND yet it was never one of my most played games. I probably played both ps4/pc versions for less than an hour each (loved the concept, but there was potential for motion sickness with the car flying around the screen lol). I played it on Xbox the night I got the code in the email AND while I've been playing Injustice 2 and AFL Evolution a lot over the past month…….. Rocket League is my new addiction HAHA!
They should email the code ASAP, I got my subscription instantly and when I didn't get the RL code I was sad and figured they had run out of them to give out (defeating the purpose of why I was buying 3 months in the first place). They had sent the code late in the night.
This offer is also available in-store. Probably quicker than email by the looks of things.
Paid by PayPal and haven't received either codes. Anyone else?
Be patient as landroverz7 stated:
I just purchased this, got the 3 months Xbox Gold code almost instantly. The code for Rocket League says will be sent in 1 to 2 days. :(
Yeah, noticed that comment. But I haven't received either XBOX or RL codes lol.

Interesting to see if JB would pricematch it.
If those who do, please report back
I just ordered as the website still shows it includes the RL download (though it's just a graphic with no mention of Rocket League in the description).
However my receipt just says 3 month Xbox Live with no mention of Rocket League - I got my XBL download code within minutes but not RL.
I've already emailed a complaint to JBHifi… I'll post the outcome here.
I've taken a screenshot if it changes later and anyone needs it.
Thanks! (me too!!)
I haven't received either my XBL or RL codes still. Emailing JB now.
Edi: got the XBL code, just no RL
I've just emailed JB about the RL code.
Hopefully we'll all see some action soon.
Got the Rocket League download code this morning in an email from JB. This was after sending them a follow up message yesterday.
Nice. Can you let me know what email you sent to?
I've not had any response. Could be store specific though.
If you login and go to Your Orders on the JB website there's a link to contact them under the order details. They responded within a few hours.
Cool. I tried with the "online order query" the other time, but just submitted another with "complaint".
Overseas at the moment and can't be stuffed giving them more than 2 chances to reply to my emails.
If they don't respond I'm just going to submit a PayPal or credit card dispute.
I got my code for Rocket League at about 9.30 this morning, so all good.
Offer remains for another 9 days according to T & Cs
"Limit 1 Rocket League code per customer. Limited time offer, ends 11:59pm 30/06/2017 or while stocks last. Rocket League tokens must be redeemed by midnight of July 31, 2017."
I'm guessing the code for RL is Xbox platform only?
Edit: If the code is redeemable on PC, I can buy it off you and that makes your 3 months Gold cheaper :D
Edit 2: Please ignore me, just realised it's only ~$15 on G2A with DLCs
Does this deal still include Rocket League? I can't seem to see it mentioned anywhere.
