NASCAR 21: Ignition Playoff Pack DLC includes NASCAR champion Bobby Labonte

The third and final planned DLC pack for NASCAR 21: Ignition is the Playoff Pack DLC, and the final NASCAR legend to be unveiled is NASCAR Hall of Famer Bobby Labonte. The DLC adds over 80 new paint schemes from the Playoff time-frame from the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series season, plus a re-imagined take on what Labonte’s famous No. 18 Interstate Batteries scheme would look like on a modern day NASCAR Toyota Camry.

The 2000 NASCAR Cup Series Champion, Labonte is one of the few to have a win in all three top levels of NASCAR competition. Labonte also collected the 1991 NASCAR Xfinity Series championship, and currently works as a driver analyst with FOX Sports. In 2019, Labonte was inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame alongside his longtime team owner Joe Gibbs and longtime teammate Tony Stewart.

It’s also worth noting that Labonte has dabbled in sim racing before, mainly known for his time as a relief driver for Joe Gibbs Racing in the No. 19 Camry for Martin Truex Jr during the eNASCAR Pro Invitational Series. Labonte has also competed in multiple races in Monday Night Racing and recently signed on to broadcast one of the Monday Night races alongside fellow NASCAR 21: Ignition legend Darrell Waltrip.

Labonte, Waltrip, Matt Kenseth and Bill Elliott have now all been officially announced as the NASCAR legends in the game.

As far as the rest of the pack, look forward to a ton of schemes from the time when the NASCAR playoffs were taking place. With the proper window banners and contingency stickers to differentiate NASCAR playoff drivers from the rest of the field, schemes from the Round of 16, Round of 12, Round of 8 and Championship 4 are all included.

On top of the playoff schemes, you might find many of the Halloween and other holiday based schemes from the time-frame. Kyle Busch’s M&M’s Halloween car is always a treat to see. Also, cars representing Breast Cancer Awareness that went and pinked out are also found in the list of added paint schemes. Overall, nearly 90 cars were added, and the full list can be found below.

Some schemes are only available for those aged 21 and older if it is set properly in the game settings. Those schemes portray alcoholic content and are designated on the spreadsheet below. If you own the Champion’s Edition of NASCAR 21: Ignition, you merely need to download the new content. If you already own the Season Pass, you’ll be set as well. If you only have the standard edition, there are two ways to get the new DLC.

Players can either get the Season Pass for $29.99, and that will also include the Throwback Pack and the Patriotic Pack. Players can also download the Playoff Pack on its own for $14.99. The Playoff Pack is now available on Xbox, PlayStation, and on Steam.

According to the game’s social media channels, there is a current issue with the Throwback Pack DLC schemes not showing up correctly. That issue is hoped to be fixed soon.
