Lightning McQueen is heading to Rocket League

destructoid.com:

It seems like it’s well overdue, but Lightning McQueen is finally making his way to Rocket League. The Cars icon will be available for purchase beginning tomorrow, November 7.

Lightning McQueen is a reskinned Dominus body. The character car can be purchased individually or as part of the Lightning McQueen Mega Bundle listed at 2,500 credits. 3,000 credits can be purchased within the in-game store for $24.99.

The Lightning McQueen Mega Bundle is full of items that will make Pixar fans proud. In addition to Lightning McQueen’s default 95 Rust-eze decal, there’s also the cool blue Dinoco decal and a laid-back Cruisin’ decal.

There are three different sets of Lightyear wheels to match each of the available decals. A Lightning McQueen player banner is included in the pack. And, of course, Psyonix implemented a Ka-chow goal explosion and added Rascal Flatts’ “Life is a Highway” as a player anthem. The latter two and Lightning’s Ruste-eze skin can be purchased individually if you aren’t interested in the entire Mega Bundle.

In watching the trailer, you can see that the character’s emotive eyes are incorporated into his Rocket League design. Psyonix notes that the character/car is the first in the game to ever have dynamic expressions, which is a super cool addition.

It’s unclear whether we’ll get any voice-over lines from Owen Wilson or imitators, but one can hope. However, the aforementioned Ka-chow goal explosion and the inclusion of “Life is a Highway” are nice touches that fans are sure to appreciate.

As with most other licensed cars, there are some limitations in how you can modify Lightning’s design. Only the three decals included in the Mega Bundle can be applied to the racecar (Rust-eze, Dinoco, and Cruizin’). Only
