"Besides the new Battle-Cars, the DLC Pack also includes two all-new Rocket Boosts ("Nitrous" and "Burnout"), two new Wheel sets (the soccer ball-themed "Cristiano" and the very-cool "Spinner" set), five all-new Paint Types ("Brushed Metal, Carbon Fiber, Metallic Pearl, Pearlescent," and "Wood"), and a handful of new Trophies. This entire collection will be available in early August priced €3.99."

The Supersonic Fury pack will launch in "early August" alongside a free update which will include the new map Utopia Coliseum, more than 70 new country flags and an oft-requested spectator mode, helping to further strengthen Rocket League's potential as an eSports title.
