Happy Holidays Boom Bots!
The Winter Holiday update is here and with it a variety of new costumes, a new ability, a cool new costume type and more! Much like the spooky update the holiday update includes new themed costumes with an in game sale. So now is the best time to get in and collect them! Also included in the update is some fun new themed stage decor. Additionally you will find the new 'Gift' ability. The gift ability gives all players the same random ability when used. Spread the holiday cheer with it in the new 'Holiday special' ruleset. See the full patch notes below!

Added new special ability rule settings.
