Rocket League Getting New Game Mode
Psyonix officially announced this week that Rocket League will be getting a new free gameplay mode next month. The new gameplay mode is called Rocket League Rumble. It’s described as an anarchic, chaotic game mode that launches in September. You can also check out a trailer for Rumble Mode below.
The mode was revealed today at the finale of the Rocket League Championship series in Hollywood, California. Rumble will be a free new gameplay mode that allows players to take part in a battle royale with randomized power-ups. The power-ups include the Haymaker, which punches the ball, the Swapper, which changes your place with an opponent’s, and the Tornado. There are 11 new power-ups in total that bring an extra dimension to the gameplay.
Rumble will be available in online playlists when it launches next month. It will also be available in Private and Exhibition matches. The complete power-up list includes:
The Boot (Kick’s an opponent’s car)
Disruptor (Forces the opponent to drive uncontrollably)
Freezer (Freezes the ball in-place)
Grappling Hook (Pulls you towards the ball)
Haymaker (Punches the ball)
Magnetizer (Attracts the ball to your car)
Plunger (Grabs the ball via plunger and cord)
Power Hitter (Hit everything harder)
Spike (Attach the ball to your car when you bump into it)
Swapper (Change positions on the field with your opponent)
Tornado (Sweep up the ball and cars into a giant funnel cloud)
Rumble Mode debuts later in September. More details and the final launch date will be revealed later.
