Dunks come to Rocket League next week with Hoops update

Car soccer is transforming into car basketball.

Rocket League will get a Hoops Mode update on Tuesday that will introduce a new way to play the popular digital auto sport. It debuts simultaneously on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Steam. This free addition enables players to take their matches to a basketball court where the goal is a giant hoop and backboard. Unlike the standard mode, which has a soccer-style goal, in Hoops you’ll need to get the ball up in the if you want to score. This is the latest in a series of updates that have kept Rocket League fans engaged and spending money on premium downloadable content, which is key way that many studios earn revenue from the $99.3 billion gaming industry.
