Hey everyone,
We’re still working on Black Dahlia and plan to release her in our next major release, but for now a small but important update is available. Read on for all the juicy details!
As this update involves a lot of server stability upgrades, there will be an extended downtime for about 6 hours starting at 1PM PDT.
Check here to see what time that is for your region.
SERVER STABILITY UPDATES
Since 5.0 we’ve been steadily rolling out improvements to increase server stability. You should already feel the game running better in recent weeks with much fewer downtimes for maintenance. However, we’re not finished, and 5.1.1 includes some MAJOR backend updates. Servers should be smoother than ever, and we’ll continue monitoring and upgrading them as time goes on.
NEW DIAMOND FIGHTER: UMBRELLA - DEATH WISH
You may have noticed our totally intentional and not accidental teaser of Umbrella ??? in your Catalogs in 5.1. This “teaser” included temporary Signature Abilities and art assets, and we’re excited to finally add this fully completed and terrifying new Umbrella variant to the Halloween event Spooky Relics.
This Diamond Fighter represents an alternate timeline where Umbrella gives in to the Skullgirl blood running through her veins and embraces her darker impulses. Those Skullgirl powers have also unlocked some special features including special visual effects and the ominous presence of the Skull Heart itself!
ECONOMY UPDATES
DAILY GIFTS
As part of our 5th Anniversary celebrations we temporarily had free daily gifts available in the Store. Those were great! Now they’re permanent!
You’ll find these free goodies in the Daily Deals section of the Store every day after 5.1.1 releases! <3
FIRST TIME THEONITE PURCHASE BONUS
We’re making the Theonite Bank Vault Offers considerably juicier. The first time you buy each Theonite Bank Vault Offer in the Store you will now get TRIPLE the normal amount of Theonite!
OTHER CHANGES
Umbrella Prize Fight text strings mistakenly had temporary translations. These have now been updated with correct localizations.
Fixed an issue where spending Theoinite to Refresh Prize Fight opponents wasn't working correctly.
Fixed an issue where the Catalog would not accurately show the Fighters you own.
That's all for today! Be sure to let us know on our social media pages if you're able to pull a Death Wish!
Thanks so much as always for all your support!
