And Etalus isn’t all that’s new, he comes alongside the 1.1.0 patch, which brings a couple new features. Firstly there’s three beginner tutorials now, with one each for learning basic offense, defense and movement. Secondly, this patch has a new server reporting feature, for when the server you’re playing has connection issues. There’s also new Arcade Mode rewards, including unlockable Abyss skin palettes for each character. Additionally, a creator program launched alongside the patch, and content creators can apply as of today. Finally, the patch also brought us a couple bug fixes. For a full list of changes you can read the official patch notes here.
Author’s Note: I've been looking forward to Etalus’ release for a while now. I’m very excited to play as and against him once I’ve got some free time. Are you excited for Etalus too? Please let us know in the comments below!
