While everyone else is going Halloween crazy, Rocket league has launched \u2018The Block,\u2019 a limited-time basketball-themed event. Instead of aiming for the small goals for which Rocket League has become known, the platform is now home to larger circular hoops<\/strong> on either side of a new arena. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the new game configuration and arena, Rocket League is also introducing new challenges and rewards to experience. Included in the new rewards are a brand new animated double dribble topper<\/strong> and a new game-time player anthem. This event won\u2019t last forever, so head on into the game and pick up your rewards as soon as you can. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hoops might present the Rocket League pros<\/strong> among us with a brand new challenge. In fact, Hoops is replacing the extra mode competitive tournament until the event is relegated to the history books and gaming nostalgia museums on October 18th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve found yourself getting a little bored of the classic Rocket League experience<\/strong>, this is definitely an event you\u2019ll want to participate in. Even if you anticipate that you won\u2019t be terribly good at basketball, half the fun of the game is trying anyway.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other news, Batman has returned to the Rocket League<\/a>. The Dark Knight, his cars, and all sorts of other batman-themed merch<\/strong> are available in the Batman bundle. This is paid DLC, so you\u2019ll have to fork out to drive the selection of legendary batmobiles that the bundle contains.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
