Kuboom - GLOBAL UPDATE 2.0

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hello Everyone!

The most anticipated update is here.. There are hundreds of changes but we're showing off the most important ones right here in this announcement!

New Interface

We've redesigned the games UI and menu to make it easier to implement new features and options later down the line! It's much more clean than the older menu.

Not only has the menu changed visually, there is also a new song to go with it!

Launch the game and take a listen after you're done reading this announcement!

New Case System

Cases will no longer drop duplicate items! This means any skin/item you have in a case will not be selected.

New Box System

Another case equivalent has been introduced. Boxes are similar to cases but instead of getting a single item upon selection, you will now get 3 items of the same rarity! (more on rarities later) Boxes can be purchased with our new currency, Keys.

There are are 2 ways of earning keys.

You can do the daily tasks to earn keys and you will also have a chance to earn keys after the end of a match via round end cards. At the end of a match, you'll be given a choice of 3 cards (4 If you have VIP) and one of those cards could have a chance of giving a key!

Of course, there are no duplicates here either!

Rarity System

Items are now ranked based off of their rarity. Items with a higher rarity will have a lesser chance of being collected/Higher price. Items with a lower rarity will have a higher chance of being collected/Lower Price.

Skins, Weapons, Items and Modules can all have a different rarity and some items with a legendary to secret rarity can completely transform the item into something else!

Rarity Categories are

  • Normal - Gray
  • Rare - Blue
  • Legendary - Gold
  • Secret - Red

Secrets are normally earned through tasks or events.

New Maps and New Mode

We've added 4 new maps and a brand new game mode in this update!

Introducing: Gun Game!

Gun Game is a free-for-all game but with a twist, every 2 kills you are granted a new weapon and the first one to get a knife and kill a player wins the game!

Its way easier said than done. But a unique game-mode nonetheless!

Along with Gun Game there are a few new maps for it as well!

Village

Interchange

Canyon

And while we have maps for Gun Game we also have a new map for team deathmatch named "Microdistrict"

Microdistrict

Additional Improvements
And with that we've reached the end of the major updates, so here are the not-so-major updates.

- Third equipment slot is now available to all players instead of just VIP players.

- Improved Netcode

- New languages: Spanish and Turkish!

- Improved anti-cheat and optimized the game!

- De-buffed the Clown characters.

- Fixed many bugs!

Closing

Thank you for your continued support! We hope you enjoy this update!

As for what is planned in the future, We're looking at changing the core fundamentals of the game; Such as movement and feel. We're also going to bring back clan wars and overhaul it once again, and we're also working on something very secret.

Stay Tuned.
