Rocket League received a little bit of content from the developer. Patch 2.18 went live on all platforms, and it brought a new car, made a small change to Stun Timer, and fixed several bugs.
The newly added car is James Bond's signature vehicle; you can now play matches with 007’s Aston Martin DBS. You can also select James Bond Theme as your Player Anthem. This 007-focused content is added because it’s the 60th anniversary of the iconic spy.
You can read the patch notes below.
- v2.18 prepares Rocket League for the introduction of 007’s Aston Martin DBS
- Change to Stun Timer: If you are grabbed and then thrown by an opponent, the bar showing stun effect will no longer reset to full between the two actions
- This change was made to make downward throws less punishing
- Fixed a bug preventing some Wheels (Apex, Bionic, Patriarch, and ARMR) from being equipable on some licensed cars like the Nissan Skyline
- Fixed save data uploads so they do not affect connectivity and/or in-game performance at the start of online matches for some players
- Adjusted how Decals affect appearance of body trim on Octane so pixelation no longer occurs
- [Knockout] Adjusted volume of impacts and shield activation in Knockout
- [Knockout] Fixed a bug causing split-screen players to be kicked from a Knockout match due to being idle when only one has been eliminated
- Fixed a bug with Season 6 Rewards Decals not loading properly
- Fixed appearance of the Season 6 Rewards Decals on the Battle Bus Car Body
- Fixed classification of the "Sizzled" Decal
