Published on: 10th October 2022

Funrise has released a line of customisable and remote-controlled Rocket League replica cars in partnership with video game developer Psyonix.

The new Rocket League branded collection of vehicles includes Rocket League Micro RC, available in four models. The 2.75” remote control vehicles feature lights and quick acceleration, a goal, game ball and a controller that stores and charges the vehicle. The Rocket League Custom Racer RC vehicles are 8” in length, available in two models and customisable in hundreds of ways.

The Rocket League ZSR Smoke RC is an 11” 6-channel remote control vehicle with an illuminated smoke boost option and LED under-glow lighting. It includes a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery that can be charged via USB and is perfect for play on-the-go.

The launch includes two Walmart exclusives, the Rocket League Light Blast Racer and the Rocket League Micro RC Competition Pack.

“Funrise is thrilled to finally reveal our line of replica customisable and RC Rocket League cars”, said Anna Cieslak, director of Licensing at Funrise, Inc. “Now players can take their favorite Rocket League vehicles out of the screen and into the hands of fans.”

Psyonix is a critically acclaimed video game developer and a leading expert in Unreal Engine technology. For more than 20 years, the studio has been a driving force behind some of the most successful games in the industry, including Gears of War, Mass Effect 3, XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Bulletstorm, Unreal Tournament III, Unreal Tournament 2004, and the award-winning sports-action hit, Rocket League. Psyonix joined the Epic Games family in 2019.

A high-powered hybrid of arcade-style soccer and vehicular mayhem, easy-to-understand controls and fluid, physics-driven competition, Rocket League is one of the most popular and recognisable video game brands worldwide. The game is free to download and available on all major video game platforms.
