<p>In the past, there have been a lot of conversations about ugly-looking Switch HOME Menu icons. Arguably the biggest offender was <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/snake_pass">Snake Pass</a></strong> in 2017. The game icon was perfectly fine until one day it was <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2017/07/random_internet_reacts_badly_to_the_new_snake_pass_menu_icon">changed</a> to resemble something that looked more like a mobile app. Months later it was restored to its original state.</p>
<p>While there was nothing particularly wrong with the <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/rocket_league">Rocket League</a></strong> icon in the first place, the game’s developer and publisher Psyonix has decided to give it a slight makeover. As you can see above, the logo has been reduced in size and there are now three cars underneath it. For the sake of comparison, here’s the original one:</p>
<figure class="picture strip"><a title="And the old one..." href="http://images.nintendolife.com/6dc21f1f9aa17/and-the-old-one.original.jpg"><img src="http://images.nintendolife.com/6dc21f1f9aa17/and-the-old-one.900x.jpg" alt="And the old one..."></a><figcaption class="caption">And the old one…</figcaption></figure>
<p>Apart from the new icon, Version 1.62 makes a couple of changes and updates to the game’s audio and also resolves a number of bugs. For the full patch notes, <a class="external" href="https://www.rocketleague.com/news/patch-notes-v1-62/">click here</a>.</p>
