'Rocket League' Gets Festive With Frosty Fest In-Game Event Later This Week - Trailer

by Rainier on Dec. 14, 2021 @ 11:45 a.m. PST

Rocket League is a fast-paced action-sports game featuring amazing physics, crazy aerial action, and compelling multiplayer combat.

The sequel to Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars, Rocket League expands on its successful pedigree with improved graphics and physics systems, a robust new single-player campaign, considerable customization options, and a fully-charged multiplayer game geared for a next-generation action-sports experience.

Rocket League is a futuristic action-sports game where players pilot rocket-powered vehicles in an enhanced version of soccer by driving their vehicles into the ball and other players in a variety of arenas. Rocket League uses an advanced physics system to simulate realistic interactions between cars and the ball, where mass and momentum determine how hard balls and cars hit each other, creating a unique and visceral playing experience.

Get ready for the most wonderful time of the year in Rocket League!

The annual winter event, Frosty Fest, will make its return starting December 16, featuring wintery items, Golden Gifts, LTMs, and more! 

Starting Thursday at 9 a.m. PST (5 p.m. UTC), complete Frosty Fest Challenges to unlock the coolest new items in Rocket League, featuring Ring-a-Ling Wheels, three new Decals, Flannel Paint Finish, "Abominable Throwman" Player Title, and more! Check them all out in the slideshow below. Plus, claim the Ski-Free Player Banner in the Item Shop for free all throughout Frosty Fest! 

Since it's the season for gift giving, we're bringing back Golden Gifts! The Challenge for Golden Gifts can be completed five times and the gifts will unlock items from the Zephyr, Elevation, and Vindicator Item Series. 

Beckwith Park is getting into the spirit of the season with a new Snowy variant of the classic Arena. Slide into this new version in Ranked, Casual, and Private Matches throughout the event! Then, sled into the featured LTMs of Winter Breakaway and Spike Rush! If you haven't checked them out before, Winter Breakaway takes place on Throwback Stadium (Snowy) and replaces the standard ball with the hockey puck from Snow Day. In Spike Rush, the Spike power-up from Rumble Mode is engaged after kickoff. The ball carrier can't boost and is demolished on impact, but can pass the ball to teammates to pull off some ice cold plays! Enjoy Winter Breakaway starting December 16 through December 24 and Spike Rush from December 24 through January 3.

If you're still looking to deck your car in even more seasonal items, be sure to check out the Item Shop, which will feature plenty of festive finds. There will even be a new Frosty Pack bundle including Tygris (Crimson Painted), Frostbite Boost (Forest Green Painted), Wonderment Wheels (Crimson Painted), and Sub-Zero Goal Explosion (Forest Green Painted) for 1100 Credits.
