James Bond is making a return to Rocket League and it’s with the Aston Martin Valhalla supercar. There’s no need to wait since it’s arriving today, and is available for 1,100 Credits.
Considered as a marvel of British engineering, 007's Aston Martin Valhalla shows a sophisticated design that has a mid-engined 950PS gasoline/battery-electric powertrain. This makes it the first-ever hybrid vehicle to be part of the game. The supercar has a Dominus Hitbox with a Reel Life decal that’s specific to 007’s Aston Martin Valhalla. It also has a unique Engine Audio plus its very own signature wheels.
You can watch the trailer of this supercar below:
To celebrate the return of James Bond to the game, there are three in-game Challenges with each one having its own 007-themed reward. These are:
- 007’s Aston Martin DB5 Player Banner
- Agent 007 Avatar Border
- “00 Agent” Player Title
As mentioned, this is not the first time Bond has visited the game. Rocket League had previously introduced 007’s Aston Martin DB5. The good news is for those who failed to get it before, it’s going to be available at the Item Shop. It’s part of the Bond 007 Collection which has both cars along with additional items, all for 2,000 Credits.
