'Rocket League' DLC release date news: More cars from 'Fast and Furious' film franchise

"Rocket League" is adding more cars to its roster in order to be the biggest vehicular soccer video game.

Developer Psyonix launched the second round of "Fast & Furious" downloadable content (DLC) on Wednesday, Oct. 11. Two vehicles from the movie's franchise will join "Rogue League."

Players can drive the 1999 Nissan Skyline GT-R R34, which appeared in the 2003 film "2 Fast 2 Furious." There's also the 1970 Dodge Charger R/T which made an appearance in the first film in the franchise, "The Fast and the Furious," which was shown in 2001.

Each car will cost players $1.99. Both vehicles feature unique booming engine sounds and showy wheels along with its array of markers.

This is the second collaboration between Psyonix and "Fast & Furious" distributor Universal Pictures. Last April, the film's lead character Dom Toretto's (Vin Diesel) Ice Charger was the first DLC that became available to players.

This is not the first time the Psyonix has collaborated with other famous creative projects. Two years ago, the developer had a cross-promotion collaboration with Tom Banner Studios, a Canadian game developer, for its game "Chivalry: Medieval Warfare."

In the same year, Psyonix collaborated with another game studio, Valve, by creating free cosmetics and accessories for its game "Portal."

"Rocket League" has reportedly sold almost 11 million copies across different gaming consoles and has almost 30 million registered players. The game has received multiple nominations and won a couple of awards like Gaming Trend's Best Multiplayer Game of E3 2015.

"Rocket League" has been received positively by both critics and video game aficionados. A lot of reviewers have labeled the game as fun, unpretentious and highly engaging, not to mention one of the top competitive games to have come out in recent years.

The game is available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Microsoft Windows PC.
