Psyonix’s partnership with the James Bond franchise has led to several iconic cars from the spy franchise appearing in the car football game, from the awe-inspiring Aston Martin Valhalla seen in No Time to Die to the world-famous Aston Martin DB5.
Now, you can get behind the wheel of James Bond’s Aston Martin DBS from Casino Royale and Quantum of SOlace in Rocket League for the first time.
