The preparation update for NASCAR, Rocket League Update 1.96 includes some much-wanted bug fixes, gets Rocket League ready for the NASCAR crossover, and much more! Let's take a look at the Rocket League Update 1.96 Patch Notes...
Rocket League Season 3 might be all geared up to start its highly anticipated NASCAR crossover, but it seems to only grind our gears so far. Not much new content, mostly limited-time and underwhelming crossover events, and countless bugs to content with. The new Rocket League Update 1.96 does relieve some of these issues, but it doesn't fix the problem that Rocket League Season 3 sucks more than Grandma's tomato soup...
Oh, yeah, we have a video about that. Check it out, but first check out all of our steaming hot Season 3 content, including details on the Rocket League NASCAR crossover...

The Rocket League NASCAR crossover will feature the NASCAR 2021 Fan Pack, available for 2000 Rocket League Credits. The fan pack will include the NASCAR Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro, and Toyota Camry, as well as a bunch of other Rocket League items and decals. Some for free, some not.
What is the Rocket League NASCAR Release Date?
The Rocket League NASCAR 2021 Fan Pack will be available from May 6 until May 12. It has been confirmed that it will then be available for select NASCAR events into the future, but for the time being, the pack will only be available during this period of time.
