by Rainier on March 24, 2022 @ 3:14 p.m. PDT

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.


The Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 is a visionary car of the moment thanks to its revolutionary design and rule-breaking technology. Developed to celebrate the Countach’s 50th anniversary, this modern Lamborghini displays the perfect marriage between hybrid technology and pure unadulterated power. Now the legendary super sports car is coming to Rocket League!

With a stylish wedge shape and audacious engine… Oh, come on, what more do we need to say? It’s the Countach LPI 800-4!!
