In Disco Fever, you’ll take a journey from Brooklyn to Venice Beach, then circle back to Staten Island in three new maps, all with their own unique feel. This roller pass contains 60 levels of cosmetics, customizations, and exclusive content. Like in Kickoff Season, finishing the pass will recoup your costs in Wheels if you’re determined to disco forever.
