Rocket League’s latest update introduces new mode and fourth competitive season

One of the most-played PC games of 2016 is getting even more content.

Psyonix is rolling out a new mode and starting season four of its competitive season for its breakout indie car soccer game Rocket League. The biggest new feature from the studio in this update is a free mode called Dropshot that once again remixes how players will slam their vehicles around a playfield. Rocket League has grown into a mammoth success since its debut in 2015. While it caught the attention of many players due to its debut as a “free” game for PlayStation 4 consumers who subscribed to Sony’s PS Plus service, it has turned into a megahit on PC where it is regularly among the top games ranked by the number of simultaneous players. Today, Rocket League is the fifth most-played game on the Steam PC gaming portal behind Dota 2, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, H1Z1: King of the Kill, and Grand Theft Auto V.
