The incredibly popular rocket-car based soccer game Rocket League is getting an update, and more DLC is coming soon.

The changes brought in patch 1.05 have been outlined in a series of tweets made by the official Rocket League account.

Fun Fact: When our next update hits (in two weeks or less), PC players will be able to filter PS4 players out of their matchmaking search

FUN FACT: Our next update (in two weeks or less) will add a music player interface to menu screens so you can cycle through the game's tunes

BTW, the 1.05 Update (available in 2 weeks or less) will add the "Find New Match" option to Ranked endgame screen (sorry it took so long)

NOTICE (Pt.1): We have begun the process of prepping the servers for "Ranked Season 1" that launches with next week's 1.05 patch (cont...)

NOTICE (Pt.2): Pre-Season Stats Leaderboards are now inaccurate as a byproduct of prep; Rank placement is unaffected (cont...)

NOTICE (Pt.3): Scheduled database maintenance tonight at 12am PT/ 3am ET/ 7am GMT. This WILL result in server downtime for up to 1 hour.

To sum up: 1.05 will bring with it an option for PC players to filter out PS4 players, a music player interface to the main menu, a 'Find New Match' option at the end of ranked matches, and 'Ranked Season 1', which will reset ranks (it's not entirely clear what else this means yet). The patch will be out within the next two weeks.

Rocket League is also getting some DLC, which Gamespot reports is likely to be announced once the new patch is out. This DLC will likely feature at least two new cars, as the previous pack did.
