Included in the Collector's Edition of the game are several goodies, though arguably the most important part of the package for fans is the physical version of the game itself. A digital version of the game has been available for the Switch for a while now, but there are fans that have held off on purchasing it, preferring instead to get a physical copy.
Aside from the game, the Collector's Edition of "Rocket League" for the Switch also gives buyers access to several pieces of downloadable content.
Specifically, the additional items included in the bundle are the Aftershock, Esper, Marauder and Masamune DLC cars as well as the "Chaos Run," "Revenge of the Battle-Cars" and "Supersonic Fury" DLC packs. The Collector's Edition also contains limited art print from Psyonix concept artist Jay Zhang and special customization items that take inspiration from DC Comics' "The Flash."
Lastly, the Collector's Edition also gives players access to the Switch-exclusive Battle-Cars.
For those curious, the game features support for the Switch's different play modes, and wireless local multiplayer is also offered. The modes and features playable in other versions of the game are also retained for the Switch edition.
Developers had also mentioned previously that they are still planning to release new features and improvements for the game in 2018.
More news about "Rocket League" should be made available in the near future.
