As we begin another week we’ll be making sure to keep you busy throughout it with our new update but also with some fun coming on the weekend as well.
PC Hotfix
We will be taking the servers down briefly on Tuesday morning (the 6th) for a hotfix addressing a PC only issue where players could not use the equip button for their Skins/MVP/or Emotes. Make sure to pay attention to notifications from our official social accounts for when this goes live.
Who’s Got the Mojo?
Everyone’s going to be given another chance to get the “Got the Mojo” title in the game yet again. This event will take place on the Paladins Twitch channel coming Thursday at 11 AM EST. To participate just be ready in the Twitch chat to drop your gamertag for an invite and if you’re lucky the developers playing may choose you to join!
Ramadan Early Celebration
Stay tuned for a blog post on Thursday afternoon giving you the details for an in-game bonus all weekend long to kick off Ramadan (begins on the 12th) early. This bonus will start on Friday so you can all participate if you’d like on the weekend!

The Future of the Bounty Store
Champions!
The Bounty Store has become a favorite amongst our playerbase with the ability to earn skins for free by playing. We want to make this an even better player experience for you, so we will be taking down the store temporarily for a big makeover. This will provide players with a better experience while we visually upgrade the store and implement some significant bug fixes.
We will be taking down the Bounty Store for this upgrade on March 31st, and are shooting to bring it back online with our 4th update this year, which will also include the debut of Limited Time Modes. As we continue development on the new store there’s a chance we may decide to take additional time as needed to ensure it releases in the best state possible. We’ll be sure to keep you updated as soon as we have a more clear picture on a firm release date so be sure to keep an eye on our official social media channels.
FAQ:
When will the current Bounty Store be taken offline?
The Bounty Store will be taken offline on March 31.
When will the new Bounty Store be available?
We’re shooting to have the new Bounty Store up and running with our 4th Update this year (targeted for late May). Keep an eye on our social channels for updates.
Will players be able to use their Bounty Skins while the store is down?
No, but we will have these available as soon as the updated version of the Store is ready!
What about the Bounty Marketplace?
The Beta Bounty Marketplace will become unavailable after March 31, and will not return with the launch of the new Bounty Store.
When the Bounty Store returns, will skins and coins owned transfer to the new system?
Yes, and if a player owns multiple copies of a skin through the marketplace we will pay out a predetermined amount of bounty coins.
St. Patrick's Day Weekend 2021
Top of the mornin’ Champions!
You don’t need luck to know that today we will be giving away a new avatar in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day. But to add to the fun we will additionally be giving out 2X Champion XP this weekend.

This Week in the Realm | March 15-21
Champions!
We’re getting closer and closer to the release of our 3rd update of the year, Indomitable, estimated to be at the end of the month!
We have some excitement coming this week to fill some of the time while you wait! Here’s what you can expect:
Bounty Store News
Event Passes & Trials of the Realm: Coming Soon!
Event Passes:
Paladins is moving to an Event Pass structure starting with our Game On Pass launching on March 31. This new format will replace our previous Battle Pass System.
A new Event Pass will launch every 2 months instead of our previous 3 month Battle Pass cycle and will include 2 brand new skins with 2 alternate color versions. Additionally, Event Passes will only take 28 Million XP to reach max level rather than the 60 Million in our Battle Passes!
Event Passes will be 24 levels and each level will have an impactful unlock including Death Stamps, Sprays, Avatars, MVP Poses, or Emotes.
Event Passes will be priced at 400 Crystals. Players can buy all content of an Event Pass for 1500 Crystals (as opposed to just getting the first 30 levels before through a Passport). This will be an option presented when you choose to buy the Event Pass. If you choose not to buy the Event Pass, don’t worry: you will still get tons of free unlocks while completing the Event Pass, including one of the skins!
In addition to Event Passes, we have completely remade our challenge system in Paladins. Trials of the Realm is the new challenge system coming to the game in the Indomitable Update!
Trials of the Realm:
Trials of the Realm challenges are completely free to all who play Paladins. You do not have to own the paid Event Pass to complete or unlock these challenges. These are a great way to not only earn up to 300 Crystals, but also unlock rewards like MVP, Emotes, and Avatars as well!
When you first open the Trials menu, there will be 8 regions that all correspond to a location on the Paladins World Map. When a major patch goes live, players will only have access to the first Region, but each week a new region will unlock, opening up new challenges and rewards.
To start your Trials open up any of the regions that have been unlocked – there you will find 3 different sets of challenges, each with their own reward, represented by an iconic Paladins location.
These locations are unlocked with tickets displayed at the bottom of any region you open. Each patch you will start with two tickets, and completing a set of challenges grants you both the reward for that location and a new ticket. Open up any of the three locations inside a region, select unlock, and you will start progressing your trials!
Each set of Trials you complete has a unique reward tied to it. Whether you want crystals, avatars, Event Pass Levels, or chests – the order you unlock the rewards is determined by you!
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Will I still earn free Crystals as I level up my Event Pass like I did in the Battle Passes?
A: Players will have the opportunity to get 100 Crystals through the paid track of the Event Pass. Additionally, Trials of the Realm will allow all players to earn up to 300 Crystals throughout the 8-week Event Pass cycle, adding up to the 400 Crystal cost of the Event Pass.
Q: Will I still be able to use old Battle Pass XP boosters I have saved from the previous format?
A: Yes, your boosters will still work. Any from previous passes will be re-named as Event Pass Boosters and now work on all Event Passes from then going forward.
Q: If I don’t purchase the Event Pass can I still get free content?
A: Absolutely! Players can unlock one of the Event Pass skins as well as other content free, just by playing Paladins. In addition Trials of the Realm is open to all players and includes even more free content!
