Spiral Knight has been updated.

Lockdown
Join the battle in two new Lockdown maps!

Downtown: A traffic-congested, frigid city with plenty of Fire Pots to melt the ice!
Gardens: A secluded garden with hidden paths amongst its ruined walls

Changes to the Scoring System:
Lockdown will now use a scaling point system where each additional Capture Point controlled by a team is worth fewer points per tick

On a 3 Capture Point map:
- 1st CP captured is worth 5 points
- 2nd CP captured is worth 3 points
- 3rd CP captured is worth 1 point

On a 5 Capture Point map:
- 1st CP captured is worth 5 points
- 2nd CP captured is worth 4 points
- 3rd CP captured is worth 3 points
- 4th CP captured is worth 2 points
- 5th CP captured is worth 1 point
