Rocket League was one of the biggest surprises in gaming of 2015, coming out of nowhere and pulling players into what is essentially soccer (or football, if you prefer) played with rocket-powered cars that wear hats. After months of only being available on the PlayStation 4 and PC, a release date has finally been revealed for the Xbox One version of the game.
The game officially arrives on the Xbox One on February 17, according to Xbox Wire. While Rocket League will sell for the same $20 price tag as it did on other platforms, gamers will get a lot more for their money. Not only does the game pack in some console-exclusive vehicles, but DLC released separately for the other versions of the game will be included right out of the gate.
As for the Xbox One-exclusive bonuses, two more battle-cars are included. First is the obvious inclusion of the Halo Warthog — called the “HogSticker” here — while the other is the Armadillo from the Gears of War games. Several other Garage items from other console-exclusive games like Sunset Overdrive are also included with the release.
