rocket league refreshes in view of a roaring sixth season. rocket league autumn update v1.37 is finally live on all platform and adds an incalculable amount of new content to the psyonix title.
one of the most interesting updates of the upgrades is definitely the new field of play, farmstead, which brings players into a rocky environment bathed by the hot light of a fiery sunset. the new arena, which rests perfectly on the "autumn" theme, will only be available for a limited time. during the event, farmstead is present in competitive, casual and private matches.
in addition, more than ninety new free cosmetic items have been added that players can customize the gaming experience. among these, we can also include the player banner feature that, starting with this update, will appear in post-match celebrations and during the replay of the goals.
since rocket league is considered to be a true digital sport (even psg has recently entered the professional circuit with a dedicated team), the development team decided to review the rules of the competitive framework by intervening on the standardization of the arenas to be inserted in classified games. in this case, psyonix's kids have been using valuable community feedback and data gathered from the map preferences system, maturing the decision to exclude from the badlands and arctagon turnovers, redesigning them in a more classical way. motivation is simple: keep a clear and easily readable standard for all players. however, the game fields mentioned will remain available only for offline matches and private matches.
finally, the new update adds full lan support to pc users, while on consoles it will be discussed later. for all other information regarding the autumnal update, we recommend taking a look at the patch notes released by psyonix, here are the all contents, new changes, issues and bug fixes of rocket league autumn update v1.37:
