Rocket League has announced the newest in-game collaboration for the popular sports game, offering a plethora of cosmetics themed around the recently released X-Men '97. The unique sports game from developer Psyonix has often teamed up with other brands to offer crossover content, allowing players to deck out their cars with special designs. From Cars mascot Lightning McQueen to the iconic Ghostbusters van, the game offers plenty of different options to personalize players' in-game cars to their own tastes. Now, a beloved Marvel franchise is coming to the game.

The recent debut of X-Men '97 saw critical acclaim following its release on Disney+ earlier this year. The Marvel cartoon continues from where the original X-Men: The Animated Series left off, bringing back popular and iconic characters like Cyclops, Wolverine, and Professor X for a brand-new set of adventures. The revival also retained several members of the voice cast from the original series, including Cal Dodd as Wolverine and George Buza as Beast among others. Now, Rocket League is assembling the X-Men for its newest crossover.

As reported by ComicBook, Psyonix and Epic Games officially revealed the Rocket League crossover with X-Men '97 on Saturday, showing off a plethora of new cosmetics. The crossover is set to feature several exclusive decals, toppers, and more based on the different members of the X-Men and their most famous foes. The collaboration will include free content available through completing in-game challenges, as well as premium options for players to purchase in Rocket League's shop. The X-Men '97 crossover event will release in Rocket League on April 23.
