RISK: Global Domination - Nick@SMG
Hello there! What’s that? You want to know the latest RISK goss 🧐?

Well, you’ve come to the right place!

Welcome to Community Bulletin #29, where we bring you all the updates and events going on in the world of RISK! Whether you’re a grandmaster or a novice just starting your journey for global domination, there’s something here for everyone.

This bulletin is filled with exciting announcements, community highlights and some sneak peeks at what’s coming soon! As always, we’re so grateful for your continued support, and we can’t wait to see what you think of the upcoming changes!

Let’s roll out! (Like a dice, not a transformer šŸ˜…)



Fancy a little update from the devs?
Update 3.16
It’s time to rep the red, white, and blue,the battle for Global Domination is taking a patriotic turn with brand new USA themed content, out now!

Watch the full update here:


Maps
We’ve taken the key regions of the USA and created an ā€œAdvancedā€ pack for those who like ā€˜em large, featuring 4 new maps!



Dice
I love the smell of dice in the new update!

Sneak Peek
Shhh… you didn’t hear this from us, but we’ve got some thrilling updates on the way! Here’s a little taste of what’s brewing in the world of RISK:

Game Modes
A brand new game mode is in the works. While I can’t spill all the beans just yet, I can guarantee you’re going to love this one! But for now, it’s going to be top-secret! 🤫 Just keep those eyes peeled!

Dice Rolls
The dev team are currently looking into dice rolls. We’re already happy with the way true random operates, however we are looking into blitz dice rolls, specifically at the higher dice rolls. You can expect to see some adjustments to the blitz dice rolls early 2025.

Map Screen Overhaul
We hear you-scrolling through maps can feel endless! Because of this, we’re overhauling this screen to make it easier to find exactly what you’re looking for. You’ll soon be able to save favourites and navigate through the map search much faster.

New Content
The art team has been hard at work, cooking up some new content. Here’s a sneak peek.
  • New maps
  • New troops
  • New dice
  • New frames
  • And yes - those highly requested emotes and avatars are on the way! (We’re just as excited as you are šŸ˜€)
That’s all I can share for now šŸ˜‰ but if I had to sum up the next few updates in three emoji’s, I’d go: šŸ”„šŸ¤«šŸš€.

Beware, brave RISK players!

This Spooky season, monstrous forces are rising to haunt your board! Send shivers down your enemies' spines with 3 terrifying new Dice and 3 haunting new Troops.



Out Now.

Can you spook your opponents into surrendering? Join the frightful fun—if you dare!
RISK: Global Domination - Nick@SMG
The battle for Global Domination is taking a patriotic turn with brand new USA themed content, out now!

Here’s what’s in store:

USA Advanced Map Pack

We’ve taken the key regions of the USA and created an ā€œAdvancedā€ pack for those who like ā€˜em large.

Watch the release video here:


Box artist: Emily L’Orange

US West

Territories: 55
Continents: 12

From the beach to the Rockies plus a little more besides.



US Northeast

Territories: 34
Continents: 8

Come for the atmosphere, stay for the chowder.



US South

Territories: 54
Continents: 15

Surely the Southeast would be a more accurate name for the region.



US Midwest
Editor's note: As an Australian studio we’re confused why this is referred to as the midwest when none of it is in the west!?

Territories: 64
Continents: 12

Battle for the heartland of the United States.



Still not convinced this pack is for you? Checkout some of the RISK community who got a sneak peak at the new maps:
