What’s New

V42.00 brings Official Tournaments to Arenas, new gameplay audio, an updated loot pool, and 20 more Combat Rooms!

🆕 New Features

Arenas Test Cups 

Official Tournaments are coming to Arenas. The Compete Tab will soon include Arenas Test Cups, putting the Knockout format in play, with the first Test Cup planned for August 27.

This is a testing phase. We’ll be closely monitoring gameplay and making adjustments along the way.

Future tournaments will have standard eligibility requirements, but these Test Cups have the bare minimum requirements to maximize participation.

Note: Current Test Cup scores are tracked on the event session leaderboard. We’re working on the in-game scoring badge for 42.10.

New Gameplay Audio

We’ve updated the background gameplay music audio.

Additional Combat Rooms

We’ve added another 20 Combat Rooms, bringing the total number of rooms to nearly 150 possible layouts.

✅ Arenas Bug Fixes & Improvements

  • Fixed an issue where wins were not credited when an elimination occurred seconds before an opponent reached the last point, and the match concluded.

  • The round-robin format now handles byes in odd-team-count matches fairly, avoiding round imbalances.
