There's a new update arriving to Psyonix's "Rocket League" next week and more than just bringing new Hot Wheels content to the game, it's finally going to provide PS4 support for 4K/60FPS. Last year, Psyonix announced that they were already looking into creating a PS4 Pro patch, but did not confirm or deny that they were indeed pushing through with it. 

According to GameSpot, Psyonix confirms February 21 update for "Rocket League" provides PS4 Pro support for 4K/60FPS along with Hot Wheels content. The update will provide 4K/60FPS for PS4 Pro and 1080p/680FPS for standard PS4 for all arenas in single and two-player split-screen modes.

Per PlayStation Lifestyle, most arenas will also have 60FPS gameplay using the same resolutions in three- and four-player split-screen modes. Psyonix also confirmed that they are using Checkerboard Rendering for the PS4 Pro update. "Rocket League" gamers should expect improved performance with the arrival of the February 21 update. Along with Hot Wheels content, the update will also feature the fan-voted Player's Choice Crate, Hot Wheels DLC support, free Hot Wheels-themed content, performance optimizations, technical improvements, and other bug fixes.

The Hot Wheels DLC for "Rocket League" also arrives on February 21 and will feature the Bone Shaker and Twin Mill, which will cost $1.99 each and will have six free decals. Customization items will be free, however, and will also be available for those who don't purchase the DLC.

"Rocket League" was released on PlayStation 4 back in July 2015 and Xbox One in February 2016. To keep up with the latest on Psyonix's February 21 update that provides PS4 Pro support for 4K/60FPS along with Hot Wheels content, bookmark Counsel & Heal.
