Rocket League was one of last year’s biggest surprises, and the success of the little rocket car game that could is downright heartwarming. And there’s no sign of it slowing down!
The game’s latest patch went live last night, bringing the following updates:
- Ranked play Season 1 has ended and rewards will be given to all ranked participants bronze or above
- Ranked Season 2 play has begun (renamed to "Competitive Season 2")
- The "Rocket Labs" experimental playlist is now available for casual Online play
- New Item Rarity system introduced, "Common" and "Uncommon" items can now be found after Online matches
- "Wasteland" arena has been added to Competitive Playlists
- "Snow Day" can now be played in Private Matches
- Performance has been improved in multiple Arenas
- (BETA) Player Reporting feature has been added
- "Quick Chat Only" filter has been added to Text Chat options
- Russian and Turkish language support has been added
- Multiple outstanding bugs have been fixed
Those are the highlights, but you can check out a much more extensive list at the Steam community page. PC players will likely be interested in the new option to uncap the framerate and adjust the UI scale. Also you can apparently now stick a deadmau5 head on your antenna, if that’s something you’re into.
Here’s to season 2! And hopefully 3, 4, and beyond!
