– Network-system reworks and general game-optimizations to support this new experience What changes can I expect on Champions? – Progression system adaptations for Royale – New Matchmaking and ranking system – Mount mechanical adjustments with footstep sounds added, and carrots! Lots of carrots. – The Ingame HUD has been re-designed and new features have been added – Stats-system adaptations for Royale – Menu UI has received a fresh new Royale theme – New consumable item system with plenty of exciting choices – Interactable map objects such as jump pads, portals, healing and resurrection shrines – A majestic fantasy island map hand-crafted with new art, sound and music Here is a list of differences and new or updated features compared to Arena: – Champion kits and Battlerites redesigned and rebalanced The signature Battlerite combat and input system will be familiar to Arena veterans, though all Champions have been fully revised for Royale, with some champions receiving larger reworks than others. If you want to play with a friend, you can jump into duo mode. Another difference compared to Arena is that you don’t have to play as part of a team, and can play solo. Your goal is to loot items, abilities, and consumables, collect gold, and purchase upgrades to grow stronger over the course of a match and fight to be the last player standing. In Royale, matches are played in a free-for-all environment with currently up to 20 players on a map 30 times larger than a normal Arena map. What are the main differences between Arena and Royale? Now after tuning and rebalancing champion kits, adding tons of cool items and consumables, revamping battlerites, and supporting this new experience with interface changes, new achievements, matchmaking, and ranking systems, we are getting closer to our vision.

With the constraints from Arena limiting us, we made the decision to protect the integrity of both experiences and create a new game instead of a new game mode.

When working on Royale, it became obvious that sharing the same balance and philosophy as Arena restricted the possibilities within Royale. Simply put, Royale became a significantly different experience compared to Arena. Why is Royale becoming a new title and not a mode? There’s been a lot of information about Battlerite Royale released in the past few weeks, so we thought we’d collect what’s been communicated so far regarding Battlerite Royale Early Access and add in a bunch of new information! We hope this answers most of your questions!
