Basketball is the second sport to be incorporated into Rocket League Crates Rocket League, after last year’s hockey game mode. It is also just one of many free DLCs that Psyonix has released for its fanbase, others including iconic customization options from franchises such as Portal.

 

 

Since Hoops was first announced last month, people have been eagerly awaiting the new mode, inspired by the NBA’s March Madness. While there’s no doubt that the mode will require players to take a different approach than in their usual soccer gameplay, it’ll make for some interesting footage as we all try to improve our aerial accuracy.

 

In other recent Rocket League news, all those who picked up a copy of the rocket-fuelled soccer game on the Xbox One should soon have access to cross-platform play, allowing them to play against PC players. Psyonix have also made references to other platforms coming in cross-platform, suggesting that one day we may see PS4 and Xbox One users playing together. Microsoft has claimed that there is an “open invitation for other networks to participate as well,” so it looks like the explosive ball is in Sony’s court for the time being www.lolga.com.
