On top of all the cool features we've already got lined up for Awesomenauts 4.4, we're adding a brand-new skin for Raelynn! Soulhuntress Raelynn is here, and she's ready to hunt down all the demons, cultists, and other evil-doers you can throw at her!

Whoever said 'The enemy of my enemy is my friend' sure never met Soulhuntress Raelynn. Though she spends her days hunting demons, cultists, and other evil scum (which lots of folk appreciate), she's not particularly nice company at parties and friendly get-togethers. One time she attended a feast some villagers organized in her honor and she used her laser rifle to 'cleanse' the demon-shaped chocolate cake the villagers had spent days to prepare for her in secret. In the end, she's just not a people person, and most people have learned to leave her alone and not invite her to their parties.

She is GREAT friends with Cuddles though. Together they've cleansed more demons and other evildoers from this world than you'd feel comfortable knowing. And a chocolate cake.

Get ready! Awesomenauts 4.4: Cirque du Brawlee is launching on October 4th!

One week from now, we're launching a massive update with plenty of cool stuff to look forward to. Get hype for the addition of Daily Missions, the arrival of a weekly Brawl that grants you lots of bonus XP and Awesomepoints, and an overhauled menu. And that's not all! We still have some announcements lined up for the rest of the week. So stay tuned.

If you want to know more about what's currently in the Open Beta for Awesomenauts 4.4: Cirque du Brawlee, read up on our recent blogpost about that. If you're interested in the list of tentative balance changes that will be included in this update, you can catch the full patch notes of the current Beta version on our official forums. Want to know how to gain access to the Open Beta? You can learn more about that on our official forums as well.
We've been testing various Brawls in the Open Beta over the last week, and have been listening to your feedback on that. We're likely making some changes to some of these when the update goes live, but we'll detail those changes at a later point.

Once Awesomenauts 4.4 goes live, a new Brawl will be available every weekend. Some of the Brawls that we've been testing in the Beta so far include:

• Girl Power - A regular Awesomenauts game, but only female 'Nauts are allowed!
• Unlimited Power - All upgrades cost 75 Solar and you can buy all 6 items in a row. Nothing can hold you back!
• Team Deathmatch - The Classic. Kill more 'Nauts than the enemy team.
• Randomnauts - A regular game of Awesomenauts, but every time you die you respawn as a different character, with random upgrades.
• Tip top - Everyone plays as Rocco. Damage is cranked up to 300%. First team to 50 Kills wins.

Get ready for Daily Missions, and start earning bonus Awesomepoints for completing them. You can already try out Daily Missions in the Open Beta, and any points you earn there will carry over to the live version!

We've got more surprises lined up for the next few days to stay tuned. See you in Cirque du Brawlee!

A new week, a new Free Rotation! This week you're able to enjoy Froggy G, one of the classic 'Nauts, for free alongside Admiral Swiggins, Gnaw, and the arrow-slinging Rocco.

These four 'Nauts are available for free to all players with account level 6 and higher for the entire week.

Welcome to Cirque du Brawlee! Awesomenauts 4.4 brings a massive batch of cool new features, and the Open Beta is available to all players right now for to try them out.

On the Streamisho today, we unveiled the biggest feature coming in Update 4.4: Weekly Brawls! Every week we'll have a new event for you to play, and during the Open Beta we'll be testing a whole bunch of them. Once Update 4.4: Cirque du Brawlee launches, these Weekly Brawls will be live from every Thursday until late Sunday... and you're getting a new Brawl every weekend.

To kick things off, the Beta currently has the Girl Power Brawl active. This boils down to a regular match of 'Nauts, but you only have access to female 'Nauts. That means your selection is limited to Coco, Raelynn, Penny, Nibbs, Dizzy, Ayla, and Ksenia!

The Brawl available in the Beta will change in a few days, allowing you to try out some of the other Brawls we've got lined up for you. We'll keep them a surprise for now... but how does an All-Rocco Deathmatch sound, for starters?

On top of these Brawls, the Open Beta also includes the features we revealed last week. Try out some of the new Daily Missions and the new Livetiles in the main menu, and give us your feedback on the extensive balance changes that are included in this update.
To access the Open Beta, all you have to do is follow these steps:

1. Right-click Awesomenauts in your library and select "Properties"
   
2. In the DLC tab, make sure the "Awesomenauts - Beta dual-load PC" is checked. If you're playing or Mac or Linux, tab the DLC for that OS instead.
   
3. Head to the "Beta" tab and switch to "beta - public channel".
   
4. Wait until the beta is downloaded (this can take a while).
   
5. Start the game
   
6. Select "Play Awesomenauts Beta" and hit "PLAY".

If you want to discuss these balance tweaks or want to share your thoughts on other features in the Beta, please head over to the Official Awesomenauts forum. While we try to gather feedback from all our different channels, it's easier for us to keep track of the different opinions and arguments if the discussions are centralized!

Awesomenauts 4.4 is right around the corner! This action-packed update will go into Beta next week, on September 20th, and we've already revealed the first couple of features that are included on the Streamisho!

• Daily Missions - Starting in Update 4.4, you'll receive a new mission every day. These missions challenge you to play or win a certain number of games, play certain game modes, try out different characters from a specific roster, and more. Completing a mission will earn you a sweet Awesomepoint bonus. For new players, these missions will be aimed at helping them understand and explore what Awesomenauts has to offer, while more experienced players will receive missions that focus on winning matches!
  
• Overhauled main menu - We're giving the main menu a new lick of paint! Once you log in after Awesomenauts 4.4 has gone live, you'll notice that the main menu not only lists your currently active missions, but a bunch of additional tiles also highlight your recent accomplishments, milestones you're close to completing, and various other aspects of the game worth highlighting!
  
• New modding features! - The modding community continues to create awesome new mods (like this awesome Ghostbusters mod by EgyptFalcon) and we want to provide them with the tools to make their mods even better! In Update 4.4, we're adding the ability to add custom particles to your mods, as well as change turret settings. Want to create a turret that shoots Derpl nukes? Now you can! Want to create a cool mod where a turret shoots at players to heal them? Say no more! We've got you covered!

Interested in how all of this looks in practice? Catch the VOD for the Streamisho! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4DQSMoPIGc And that's not all! The biggest feature we're adding in the update is still a secret! Come back next week to learn all about the update and try it out in the Open Beta for yourself!
