Rocket League‘s Halloween event is teeming with ghosts, but assistance is on the way. Players can get their hands on the Ghostbusters’ Ecto-1 Battle-Car by purchasing it on the Item Shop—but just for two days.
The vehicle rotates out of the shop at approximately 3pm CT on Oct. 23, when it’ll subside to the Stay Puft goal explosion, also inspired by the Ghostbusters franchise.
The Ghostbusters’ signature vehicle is on the shop for 500 Credits ($4.99) and comes in two variants: red and blue. It uses a Dominus hitbox, consistent with Rocket League‘s support page, and players who use a Dominus (or similar) should find adopting the Ecto-1 a reasonably simple process.
The car was a part of the Ghostbusters Ecto-1 Car Pack, which sold separately on several storefronts. The bundle came with the Ecto-1, the Slimer topper, and therefore the Stay Puft goal explosion, which rotates into the Item Shop on Oct. 23.
The Ecto-1 is that the first licensed DLC item to return to the Item Shop after Rocket League went liberal to play. A series of special cosmetics could make their return to the arenas within the longer term, including the Batmobile, Knight Rider’s K.I.T.T., and a few of Hot Wheels vehicles.
When those items return, however, they're going to only be available within the Item Shop: Psyonix has been progressively removing licensed DLC from other platforms, like Steam, after Epic Games acquired the studio.
Players who try to seek out more Ghostbusters-themed items to travel with their newly-acquired Ecto-1 need to complete a few of the challenges during Rocket League‘s Halloween-themed Haunted Hallows event. a good range of cosmetics from the beloved franchise is out there for free of charge, from Ghostbusters wheels to a special boost.
