Metal Revolution January BETA Update

Hey guys! We are happy to announce that after such a long wait the Metal Revolution BETA is finally back online! To join the BETA test you will need to visit our Discord server and request a key from a bot: https://discord.gg/aEUQkj6

Please keep in mind that this version does not represent the final product and the EN translation still needs to be polished. The main purpose of this playtest is to test out the core gameplay and the connection of our servers.

We will keep the servers online until January 20th. Thanks for your continuous support and for sticking around with us all this time!

What’s New?

Ranked Mode

• Added a network status indicator that appears before initiating matchmaking to let the players know whether or not their network is suitable for the match.

• Optimized ranked matchmaking that doesn’t allow players to be matched with the same opponent for the next 60 seconds. We encourage players to challenge as many opponents as possible.

• Limited the number of rematches that a player can have with the same opponent to only

• Keep in mind that on lower ranks players might get matched with AI, when there is not enough players online. It’s a temporary solution for this period of beta. We plan to get rid of AI opponents in the future, when servers get populated with more players.

Ring Mode (Match Event)

• Added a daily challenge for everyone to join that opens from 8PM – 11PM PST to the main screen.

• Players can join any of the available rooms as well as queue or spectate for the ongoing matches. The higher the player ranks, the higher chance that he/she will be next in the queue to challenge the winner.

• If a player is on a 10-round win streak, then he/she can claim special rewards for dominating the competition!

• If a player looses a match, then their win streak resets and the player goes back to spectator mode.

New Characters

• Kong, a modified cyber Monkey King who wields a powerful pole is finally joining the Metal Revolution roster. He is also a master of deception with his doppelganger techniques, which can be very useful for controlling distance between the players.

• Xophi-IX has an updated look and a voice over in French. We also tweaked some of her specials and combos.

• We are also constantly working on bringing new fighters to the character roster with the upcoming updates. As announced previously, we plan to have 16 playable characters by the time of the game release during spring 2020. More info about the new characters will be revealed very soon!

In-Game Cosmetics and Shop

• Added a variety of avatar frames for in-game profile picture. They can be unlocked by playing in Ranked Mode or by leveling up your player profile. If you are one of the strongest players and sit at the top of the ladder, you will have a special avatar frame!

• Added a variety of new character skins in the game store.
