The long-running series is also making its way to Rocket League, introducing an vehicle customization option that will also be compatible in the Fortnite universe. However, if gamers will actually want to use it is another question, as there's only one Springfield vehicle everyone is eager to drive, and this new offering isn't that one.

Instead, players are getting the Simpsons' everyday well-worn four-door, which they've been driving since the show's early days. Though this particular car has accumulated plenty of miles, it stands as an recognizable symbol of the series. For those who analyze Rocket League vehicle dimensions, the Simpson family car uses the identical collision model as the Dominus.
