Psyonix has announced that a physical version of motorised football hit Rocket League’s Nintendo Switch edition will be making its way to retail shelves next month. North America will get it first on January 16, while the UK will get it ten days later on January 26.

Dubbed the ‘Collector’s Edition’ this version of the game will come bundled with a host of DLC for the game, including: the Supersonic Fury, Revenge of the Battle Cars, Chaos Run, Aftershock, Marauder, Esper and Masamune DLC packs, as well as a bunch of customisation options from DC’s The Flash as part of the package’s recently announced deal with Warner Bros who’ll be responsible for this retail version as previously reported. 

However, the announcement blog for the package also noted that the releases would have a slightly higher MSRP than the same SKU on other platforms by around 10$USD, with Psyonix justifying the increased cost by saying ‘As much as we tried to keep the retail price down, the reality of the Switch’s increased cartridge manufacturing costs meant that the MSRP had to be higher as well.’

Rocket League for Nintendo Switch is available digitally right now.
