'Rocket League' Receives New Hot Wheels DLC Next Week

We've already seen Rocket League partner up with popular toy car brand Hot Wheels for DLC in the past, and it's been announced the two will partner again for more new content for Psyonix Studios' hit cars+soccer game. Releasing next week, the latest Hot Wheels and Rocket League collaboration includes three new cars, new skins, toppers and even a new arena.

The new vehicles include the Gazella GT, MR11 and Fast FWD. Each car includes four unique decals to customize your ride, along with a gorilla, snake and spider topper. Everything from this second wave of Hot Wheels DLC will be available to download on Sept. 24 for $5.99.

It features a double-loop Hot Wheels track in the background and can be seen in the trailer above. Also free are various Hot Wheels 50th Anniversary customization items, including a set of wheels, a flag and a banner.

The five-pack of cars will be available on store shelves in mid-October. Be sure to buy a specially marked pack that comes with a bonus code for even more Rocket League DLC: a sweet set of wheels.
