changedWe're making this shift because we firmly believe in a fair and player-friendly model. We don't support aggressive Games as a Service monetization. There will never be paid season passes or pay-to-win elements, and If we ever introduce premium currency, it will always be earnable in-game in a fair, rewarding, and player-focused way.
changedBots Are Almost Here!: Bots are working smoothly and are currently being fine-tuned. We're targeting full, seamless integration by the end of April. How excited are you to try them out?
addedMaps Update: On Friday, you'll dive into two fully polished maps. And there's more coming—a completely new third map will be dropping soon! Any guesses or hopes for what it'll be like?
