The free “Anniversary Update” adds a slick, new arena called Champions Field, six achievements, and a complete rework of all in-game engine sounds for every Battle-Car. The update also adds the Overdrive crate which contains two new cars, trails, wheels, and goal explosions.

The Overdrive crates have a chance to drop after completing multiplayer matches, and can only be unlocked with keys bought with real money. You can see the new items from the update in the trailer below.

Competitive Season 4 also ends with the Anniversary Update and kicks off Season 5, but Psyonix will have more information on season changes closer to launch. The studio did say the season rewards are custom trails, dependent on the highest rank achieved during the season.
