Hey fighters!

Update 1.0.10 is released! Here are the notes:

Improvements:

- Special attacks using sequences of directional input, stance, and attack
- Potential rating change are now displayed in the character selection screen and during duels.

Fixed:

Good luck on the battlefield!
Cheers!

UPDATE 1.0.9 IS LIVE!

Hey fighters!

Update 1.0.9 is here! Here are the detailed notes:


- It is no longer possible to change active stance during an attack, even for S2 and S3.
- The perfect parry with the wakizashi was resetting too soon, making it impossible to block S3 attacks. This has been fixed.
- Feint locking is fixed. Previously, it was possible to execute a feint over and over, entering a state of constant attack -> feint -> attack loop, which was very hard to defend against. Not anymore.
- Some Nodachi attacks don't play feint animations at the end anymore.
- It is no longer possible to open the pause menu when the app loses focus during travel to character selection from the waiting room.
- Duel history records have been added to the Stats screen.

Keep it up fighters! See you on Discord!

Hotfix 1.0.8.1

Hey Warriors!

Today we are bringing you a small hotfix for our recent update (1.0.8.1) Here is the list of fixes:

  • Fixed the wakizashi feint sequence playing after the attack animation.
  • Removed the testing sequence for the new combo system.

NEW UPDATE 1.0.8 IS LIVE!

Hey fighters!

A new patch has just been released, and here are the notes:

Fixed:

- Loading Screen is properly shown in the waiting room if loading started while the pause menu was active
- Character skin is no longer reset to the first one in character skin selection when returning back from body part customization
- Naginata High Sequence A sometimes does not hit the enemy
- Possibility to open pause UI (and leave to the main menu) when loading starts in the waiting room
- Overflowing characters in the invite code
- Katana Low Sequence B: missing S2 hit when the opponent is turned towards the camera

Changed:

- Sequence names in the pause menu are now simply Sequence 1, Sequence 2,... etc.

Added:

- New option in Audio Settings to enable/disable all sounds if the game application isn't focused
- More combo sequences - sequence widgets (pause menu as well as tutorial) were updated accordingly to reflect this change
- Taunts now use specific montage sections instead of simple fade out
- Enhanced rating stats (onset rating, last assigned rating, time elapsed since last ranked match)

IMPORTANT NOTES:

1. Onset Rating: This is your live rating value, which declines as time passes. It is used to calculate your rating after any ranked duel.
2. Last Assigned Rating: This rating value was calculated at the end of a ranked duel using your Onset Rating. Its value remains unaffected by time once it is sent to the leaderboard.

Keep up the great job fighters! See you on Discord!
