The topic of lobby and ready up comes up a lot, so we wanted to share a first look at the UX and UI overhaul coming to RISK in 2026.
You asked, we listened—READY UP is moving to the lobby:
Lobby: chat
Lobby: strategize while waiting with map preview, pan + zoom
Lobby: check out map info
Lobby: Detailed game settings
Advanced settings: includes a convenient reset button
Select a Map screen
No more browsing maps/games one at a time. You can view as rows or grid, adjust thumbnail sizes, dynamic filter (doesn't obscure the whole screen anymore). It's much faster, efficient way to browse now. You'll notice there are different icons for humans + bots overlayed on the map thumbnails, so no surprises.
Example of dynamic filtering UI.
*2v2 (team play) will not be available with the release, but is planned for later this year.
More updates are on the way, stay tuned.
