The developer, Psyonix, has described the new mode as:
The new game mode, Rumble, will add more fun and wacky twists to Rocket League’s gameplay with Giant Boots to kick away your opponent’s car, a Grappling Hook to pull you towards the ball, and even Spikes that allow you to attach the ball to your car.
Take a look at the 11 new ridiculous power-ups that will be available within the new game mode.
The Boot (Kicks an opponent’s car) Disruptor (Forces the opponent to drive uncontrollably) Freezer (Freezes the ball in-place) Grappling Hook (Pulls you towards the ball) Haymaker (Punches the ball) Magnetizer (Attracts the ball to your car) Plunger (Grabs the ball via plunger and cord) Power Hitter (Hit everything harder) Spike (Attach the ball to your car when you bump into it) Swapper (Change positions on the field with your opponent) Tornado (Sweep up the ball and cars into a giant funnel cloud)
Like previous game modes such as Hoops and Mutators, Rocket League Rumble will appear in Online playlists, along with Private and Exhibition matches.
Along with next month’s upcoming update, Rocket League will receive a brand new VR-themed arena that is dubbed the “Octagon” which will be available for both Online and Offline Exhibition play.
Also coming will be two more variants of the classic traditional fields, “Urban Central (Dawn)” and “DFH Stadium (Stormy)”. These, like always, will be available for both Online and Offline play in Exhibition and Private matches, along with Ranked Playlists.
