Hey everyone!
Our next update is arriving soon, and that update is... 4.1.1!
"But what about 4.2!?"
Although we're still hard at work on some larger features that will be arriving in our 4.2 update, we still wanted to release some improvements and fixes to some of our recent features that were added in 4.1. Rest assured that as soon as 4.2 is ready to go we'll get it in your hands ASAP.
Some of the contents in 4.2 and beyond will be discussed in our 2020 roadmap post, which is arriving sometime next week. (February 10th - 14th)
But for now, onto the present! Here's what we're including in our 4.1.1 update...
Valentine's Day Event
Our Valentine's Day Prize Fight returns for another year!
The Roses are Red, Violence is Due Prize Fight will begin next week, February 11th. A big part of releasing 4.1.1 was also making sure that we could update this Prize Fight with some extremely juicy rewards for all of you, similar to our last few event Prize Fights.
Most notably, three new milestones have been added with amazing rewards:
MILESTONE 11
Like our other Holiday events, the LOVESTRUCK RELIC will be available during this window which features your favorite red and pink and white themed Fighters.
Here's the full list:

OTHER CHANGES
Optimizations
- Improvements were made to reduce memory usage across the app to reduce the chances of crashing. If you're still experiencing crashes on low end devices, we recommend occasionally restarting the app during long play sessions.

- Fixed an issue where blank panels could show up in the Friends list of the social hub.
- Getting an XP boost from a Gift or Gold Gift no longer displays the NEW tag.
