Rocket League's coolest event is returning this month, as the fourth annual Frosty Fest is scheduled to kickoff on December 14. The event brings with it several new Challenges, Limited Time Modes, and plenty of exclusive unlockables.
When the fun begins on Monday, you'll find a host of new Event Challenges listed under the Challenge Menu. Completing these will earn you rewards such as the Holiday Bow Topper and Holiday Hearth Wheels. Golden Gifts are also making a return, and unlocking them will grant you various items from the Accelerator, Elevation, and Triumph Series.
Oh, and there'll be a free item in the Item Shop – Mr. Floeberg. Just log in during the event and claim your free Antenna for an easy way to get into the holiday spirit.
Several Limited Time Modes are also available during Frosty Fest, with a new mode becoming active every week. The first one making an appearance is Winter Breakaway, a variant on Snow Day mode that sees you chasing a puck around a hockey rink-inspired arena. The following week (December 21) will see Spike Rush making a return, then Heatseeker on December 28. The snowy festivities will wrap up on January 4.
Rocket League recently launched as a free-to-play title, so if you're a new player this is a great way to get your hands on some exclusive customization options for your car. At the very least you should log in to pick up Mr. Floeberg – who definitely wasn't inspired by Frosty the Snowman.
If you don't want to wait until next week to start earning new gear, Season 2 of Rocket League is up and running, giving you a slew of new Challenges to tackle, unlocking music-themed items in the process. A new arena, new vehicle, and new soundtrack options have all been added to Rocket League, making December the perfect time to try out the high-octane sports game.
Frosty Fest returns to Rocket League on December 14 and runs until January 4.
