Even across multiple console generations,Rocket Leaguehas proved to be a classic andone of the best indie sports games of all time. One source of its success has been its enduring gameplay formula, which hasn’t changed on a fundamental level almost since it originally launched in 2015. The seemingly simplistic setup of driving cartoony, rocket-powered vehicles around a pitch in pursuit of a giant, floaty ball is devilishly hard to master, and players have dedicated years to gaining proficiency. Along the way, numerous cosmetic packs, including many branded crossovers, add options to help players express themselves visually in-game.

Potential Rocket League Crossover with the X-Men Leaked

The latest brand crossover withRocket Leaguecould involve the X-Men, if a new leak from Twitter user ShiinaBR proves correct. According to a post from ShiinaBR (which sources fellow leakers SamLeakss and RocketPlanetGG), anX-MenxRocket Leaguecrossover could launch as early as June 07, 2025. The leaks didn’t suggest what sort of content would arrive as part of aRocket Leaguecrossover with Marvel’s mutant superheroes, but given the recent release oftheX-Men 97animated serieson Disney+, the cosmetics could be based on that particular incarnation of the iconic superhero team. As with other bundles, anX-Men-themedRocket Leaguebundle could contain toppers, skins, and special effects themed after characters from the series or the comics.

Another potential crossover that could be coming toRocket Leagueas Season 14 goes oninvolves a different Disney-owned franchise:The Mandalorian. TheStar Wars-set TV series has already appeared inRocket Leaguebefore, but the same leak that outed the possibleX-Menbundle also mentioned a “Beskar Bundle” scheduled for June 02, 2025. Beskar is the name of “Mandalorian steel,” a special metal used to form the Mandalorian warriors' iconic, blaster-resistant armor.
