The new Hot Wheels content includes the Twin Mill III and Bone Shaker cars, available for $1.99 each. Both cars come with six new decals and a set of wheels. All players will be able to receive a free Hot Wheels topper, Hot Wheels antenna, Treasure Hunt flag, and Shark Bite topper through item drops after finishing games. The “Player’s Choice Crate Series 1” may also drop after completing matches, and contains customization options voted on by the community.

PS4 Pro support allows 4K resolution at 60 FPS on a PS4 Pro and 1080p at 60 FPS on a standard PS4 for all arenas in single player and two player split-screen modes. Although, three and four player split-screens modes will have 60 FPS “in most arenas at the same resolutions,” developer Psyonix announced last week.

The Rocket League update also comes with bug fixes specifically for PS4 and other platforms, listed below. The full patch notes can be found here.
