Rocket League's Free Match Mutators Change the Game on PS4

Ever wanted to play Rocket League in slow-motion with a bouncing cube? Well, now you can, as the game's previously promised match mutators are available now as part of a free PlayStation 4 patch. You can mix and match these as you see fit in private or exhibition games, while a new Mutator Mashup option has been added to the Unranked Playlist menu.

We had a little play with these earlier this evening and we have to say that they prove the old adage true yet again: the original is always best. But if you're goofing around with friends, there's definitely fun to be had here – playing with a tiny ball on fast settings is a fun alternative that makes the action way more frantic than it already is.

This patch also brings with it a bunch of free antennas inspired by games such as DriveClub, Oddworld, and, of course, Fallout. If you fancy driving around with a Vault Boy attached to your ride, you'll simply need to play a handful of matches until it unlocks. Apparently, all vault dwellers enjoy a spot of Rocket League when they're not shooting molerats and poking fun at the appearance of ghouls.
