We hope you’re thirsty for another game update, Punchies! Rumble Club 1.3 has just gone live with a new way to play - a new game mode, a new map, and a whole new jumping mechanic.
New Mode - Juiced Up
In this variant to Punch Royale, crates and defeated players drop Juice Boxes which increase your punch power and punch resistance. Collect Juice Boxes for more power, or pick up a gadget to counter a more powerful enemy. In addition to Juice Boxes, punchies can now also jump in Juiced Up! Use a new button to leap into the air to clear obstacles, avoid punches, or save yourself from falling into the goop.
New Map - Finish Line
A new map has entered the rotation as well, a sports arena called Finish Line. This one is in preparation for the first annual Punchie Games coming later this summer, stay tuned for more on that event!
