Psyonix have launched a cross-over event with 7-Eleven, dropping themed-items and Rocket League Slurpees. Yum?
It's not unusual to see major games like Rocket League and Call of Duty featured on sweets and chip packets, distributed across supermarket shelves and magazine covers. Themed-cups, themed-toys, themed-everything is simply a matter, of course, but for a game to actually include retail store themed in-game items? That's just weird!
You see, Rocket League features all kinds of crossover events. Just yesterday we reported on a potential new Batman-crossover event that was teased by a cryptic tweet on Rocket League's Twitter page. A few weeks ago, a fantastic Black History Month-themed bundle dropped for Rocket League as well, featuring a couple of really cool crossovers with classic musicians. Honestly, the Rocket League Item Shop has been on fire recently!
A 7-Eleven crossover, though? I mean it's funny, sure, but do people really want a Slurpee Boost? That's a little weird, right? Well, maybe it's just me, but it seems like a bit of a cash-in to partner with 7-Eleven of all companies. Really doesn't fit the game's branding, but whatever. Here's everything you need to know, if this is something that interests you...
What Are The 7-Eleven Themed Rocket League Items?
There are three in-game rewards being distributed as part of this 7-Eleven crossover event. Each of them are available between different dates, which we will label.
