Announcing The Champion Body Pillow!

Posted on by

We are pleased to announce we have taken the first steps necessary to provide our playerbase with genuine Battlerite merchandise. Announcing The Champion Body Pillow! This has been the most requested product since we first teased an avatar of Lucie on a body pillow at Valentines!

You can see a preview of our upcoming store page below.

As can be seen above, we are starting with the most requested champions first (we know Pearl is in high demand!) but we are planning to extend our assortment of champions as soon as we can.

We hope you look forward to snuggling up to your favorite champion as much as we are!

Dev Blog #8 – Networking Movement

Posted on by

Hello Champions of Battlerite!

My name is Daniel “Prog” Fahlström and I am one of the programmers (Editor’s Note: aka “One of the lead devs”) here at Stunlock Studios. I’ve been working here since January 2013. Some of you might know me from the Bloodline Champions days as I was an active community member and moderator back then. During the development of Battlerite, I’ve been working in multiple areas such as the gameplay backend, UI and localization.

In this blog I will briefly explain how the Champion movement works in Battlerite (without being too technical) and what requirements and challenges we’ve had with the solution we use. Read more »

Devblog #7 – Katey Reports

Katey here!

What’s happening in Stunlock town?

Well as you know, there’s been a lot of fiddling and tweaking for Patch 0.11.2.0, which we’re all pretty excited about (but also, admittedly, a teeny bit anxious for). The game designers and co have been busy on the core gameplay changes, playing it with testers, getting feedback etc. The patch date was already announced last Friday and I can confirm it will go live this Thursday.

I took part in testing the new patch and it’s been quite an experience so far. Initially, the purpose of the patch was to create more interesting and dynamic play via movement speed changes and changes to M1 ranged abilities. The goal was to get more dodging and interesting plays in neutral situations, allowing for more outplays via skill.

Dev Blog #6 – IEM Katowice

We know you are very curious about the M1 changes; as it stands, the patch won’t arrive this week, but we should be able to announce a date for the patch before the week is over. Stay tuned! Meanwhile, please enjoy a behind the scenes blog from Tau Petersson, our PR & Events Manager.

Hej!

Here you’ll get to see the one part of my life where I go to a lot of events to show off Battlerite or Stunlock. This time around we got the chance to go to IEM Katowice to hang out with Razer and play Battlerite in their booth. With me I had two of our brilliant event workers: Levox (Jens Bak) and Silfver (Christoffer Silfverswärd: that last name means Silver Sword with fancy old Swedish spelling).

Dev Blog #4 – Katey Reports

Posted on by

It’s me again! In case you didn’t catch the first blog, I shall introduce myself once again. My name is Katey and I am UI Designer and Brand Manager here at Stunlock Studios. My blogs revolve around what people have been up to the previous week.

Due to the Enter the Arena tournament over the weekend, we originally planned to have an esports blog written by our one and only GrimGoon (Esports Manager), but since organising a tournament is a very time consuming business, he wasn’t able to post this week. Hopefully we will get a blog from him fairly soon. Read more »

Get ready for Enter The Arena!

Posted on by

The wait is finally over!

To kick off the 2017 competitive season in style, Battlerite is pulling out the big guns as it partners with Beyond the Summit and Twitch to bring you “Enter the Arena”.

The event starts at approx 18:00 CET / 09:00 PST this Saturday and Sunday over at Beyond the Summit on Twitch.tv. 

 

This weekend sixteen of the best teams from North America and Europe will collide in an epic showdown with lots at stake. Not just the record setting purse of 10,000 USD hangs in the balance, but also honor and regional bragging rights. Who will make it through? Who will collapse under pressure? And will the top seeds from the invitational process in TelroskMi and Onslaught live up to the billing?

Parche 0.11.1.0

Posted on by

El parche 0.11.01 está previsto para el 28 de febrero e incluirá varios arreglos y actualizaciones a campeones. El mantenimiento de los servidores comenzará a las 15:00 CET (6:00 AM PST / 9:00 AM EST), y debería durar 1 hora.

Los cambios a la jugabilidad del M1 que estaban planeados para este parche han sido pospuestos por un mínimo de dos semanas ya que un miembro crítico del equipo no ha estado disponible casi un mes.

Como jugador apreciado de Battlerite, queríamos asegurarnos de que fueras notificado lo antes posible. Sabemos que estos cambios son muy anticipados, así que hemos decidido enseñar un teaser de los cambios que se mostrarán en el blog del lunes.

Nos disculpamos por las molestias. Estos cambios de jugabilidad son nuestra mayor prioridad ahora mismo y nuestro equipo dedicado está trabajando muy duro en mejorar vuestra experiencia con Battlerite.

Características y Contenido

Nuevas monturas – Escorpión Emperador y Escorpión de la Muerte

El Escorpión Emperador (izquierda) estará disponible para aquellos que ganen varios campeonatos. El Escorpión de la Muerte (derecha) podrá ser obtenido en promociones.

Cambios a Campeones y arreglos

General

  • Arreglado un error que causaba que la localización de impacto de Healing Potion (Lucie), Healing Wave (Pear) y Rejuvenating Sands (Oldur) fuera ligeramente incorrecta
  • “Air time” ha sido añadido al tooltip de varias habilidades de movilidad
  • Pestilus – Tooltip de daño límite de Brain Bug ha sido cambiado de límite de Panic Damage a límite de Brain Bug Damage
