To commemorate the launch of Serafin Pier, Bocce Time will be 10% off for the next two weeks, so if you haven't picked the game up yet, now's the best time to jump in! With the new park live, I'll be turning my attention to character customization. Look forward to that in the next major update!

That's it for now, everyone! Until next time!
