Hotfix
We have pushed out a hotfix for the game. It will address the dodge/dash cooldown in game and allow you to put in your contact information for the tournament.
See you in game!
Leaderboards Reset
The leaderboards have been reset and are now tracking for the first week of the December Tournament. There were some small glitches with it pulling from old data when we switched over to track weekly stats. We had to reset the leaderboards manually and they should be working properly now to keep track of player stats for the tournament.
See you in Game and Good Luck!

Arena Map! - Limited Time Mode
[H1]Arena Map Update
Hello,
Welcome to the latest update to Zeus’ Battlegrounds. We are excited to bring you the Arena Map as a limited time game mode.
Demigods are thrown into close quarters combat with up to 40 other combatants. There are no God Gifts in this mode and the matches are set to last between 5-10 minutes each. We anticipate this game mode being available for a limited time and will be the only mode available while we test it out.
[H1]Gameplay Updates
• Fixed issue with UI losing focus when using a controller
• Update UI and item localization
• Optimized weapon swapping for orbs, thrown weapons and bolts when one type is consumed, the next available weapon of that type should equip in the same slot as the previous weapon of that type.
• Fire arrows have had their AoE damage reduced. Direct hits will now do 110% damage to target but only 20% weapon damage to targets within 2 meters of impact.
• Lightning arrows have had their chain ranged reduced to 5 meters.
• AoE damage on items is still reduced by the armor factor of the chest only.
• Updated several armor sets to reduced clipping
• Improved Leaderboard UI
• Improved lobby UI loading time
• Fixed Zeus animations
We appreciate the feedback and support you have given us. We will continue to work on improving the game you are helping us build. Have a great week and see you in game!
