Racket Rivals event
Racket Rivals New Spirit??: Schedule, Start Times & Next Countdown
New Spirit is one of Racket Rivals’ recurring headline events, and it returns on a long cycle rather than a weekly one. Each time it comes back, the developer, Small World Games, folds a brand-new spirit into the racket-sports game, and the event has run 2 times so far.
Racket Rivals is one of Roblox’s bigger sports titles, with more than half a billion visits, over 4.5 million favorites, and about 7,700 players in game right now. New Spirit sits at the rarer end of that calendar: the next outing is projected for Saturday, April 24, 2027 at 10:30 AM ET, an estimate based on how the event has recurred before that we lock in once the developer announces it.

How often New Spirit runs and when to catch it
New Spirit is not a weekly or monthly fixture. It runs on a long rhythm — every ~266 days between appearances, or a little under nine months — which makes it one of the game’s least frequent events. With only 2 runs on record, the date on the card above is our best projection from that pattern rather than a confirmed booking, and we update it the moment Small World Games posts the next one.
When New Spirit is live, it opens in two Saturday-morning slots on the US clock: 9:30 AM and 10:30 AM Eastern. The back-to-back start times give more players a chance to reach the opening.
What happens in New Spirit
As the name points to, New Spirit is built around the arrival of a fresh spirit in Racket Rivals. The specifics of each run — what the new spirit brings and how to unlock it — are revealed close to launch and differ from one appearance to the next, so we detail them here as the developer confirms them for the upcoming date. What stays constant is the shape of the event: a headline addition timed to a weekend and opened across the two Saturday windows above.
Tips for catching it
- Pick the Saturday slot that falls at a workable hour where you live — both start times are shown above in Eastern Time, so convert them to your own time zone.
- Because New Spirit only comes around roughly every nine months, it is worth setting a reminder as the projected date nears; the next start time and the usual windows are on the card above.
- If you miss both Saturday windows, you will be waiting months for the next one, so plan the day around it rather than counting on a quick repeat.
- Ranked Season 5 is live in the meantime, so there is plenty to grind between New Spirit appearances.
How New Spirit fits into the Racket Rivals calendar
Racket Rivals keeps a steady stream of events running, and New Spirit is one of the rarer, spaced-out additions rather than a regular rotation. Faster-moving content fills the weeks between: Ranked Season 5 is live now, and a New Racket Pack is on the way. The game has also cycled through limited modes in the past, including Castle Race Mode and a soccer mode, alongside features like the Racket To Skin Converter. Against that backdrop, New Spirit stands out as a headline moment worth marking on the calendar precisely because it turns up so infrequently.
