Chaos Run is the latest DLC announced for "Rocket League." In a previous post, Dunham reveals the DLC will include two new Battle-Cars, Ripper and Grog, which will also get six new decals each and two new wheels. The DLC will also feature two new paint types, Camo and Sun-Damaged, and five brand-new trophies.

The other new customization items include two new rocket trails (Sandstorm, Nuts and Bolts), three new toppers (Boombox, Cow Skull, Mohawk), and three new antennas (Bomb Pole, Radioactive, Retro Ball — Wasteland).

Included with Chaos Run is a new map, Wasteland. It is the first of many "unusual" arena designs the game studio plans to introduce, according to Dunham. Wasteland will feature a wider stadium and an arena that slopes around the entire perimeter. It will also have a different Boost placement.

The DLC is priced at $3.99 and will be available starting Dec. 1.

Snow Day Mode
Snow Day is a new mode that features an "ice-themed field and a heavy, disc-shaped puck." It will be available starting Dec. 14 and will officially replace "Mutator Mashup."

Winter Games items
On Dec. 14 to Jan. 4, Psyonix will also make available new limited-time Garage items that will be unlocked once players participate in matches, win or lose.

Players can unlock and keep a rocket trail ("Xmas" Rocket Trail), four toppers ("Blitzen," "Christmas Tree," "Sad Sapling," "Santa"), and two antennas ("Candy Cane," "Holiday Gift").

Dunham clarifies that players do not need to purchase the Chaos Run DLC to access the new mode, the Winter Games items, or the new map.
