This patch brings a revamped new user experience to make it easier to start training for the first time and the new social feed, where you can get updates & notifications on your training.
Let’s find out more:
Revamped New User Experience
We’ve made it easier than ever to hop into training for the first time. After setting your preferred language, simply pick your game of choice and start training! You can hop directly into your first task, take the Aim Lab assessment to get your starting rank, or even explore over 10,000 tasks and choose the tasks that suit you best.
Social Feed
With the new social feed, get real-time updates on your training! Anytime you get a new high score, rank up or complete an Aim Lab event, you’ll get a notification to let you know when it happened. Notifications can be easily toggled on and off as well so you only have to be notified when you want to be.
Bug Fixes
Fixed the Issues with expanding categories on training tab
Combine playlist bar sometimes carried through game on ESC menu
Shots hit was degrading over time
Playlists were not appearing in "My Collection"

With the new content browser you can easily sort through featured, favorites, recommended and game specific tasks without being forced to hop through a bunch of screens and with the new share button located in the top right of every screen, you’ll get a clickable link that allows anyone you share it with to play that task or playlist. There’s even a snapshot of the leaderboards, and the option to set up your loadout before hopping into your task.
Discord Rich Presence
Discord Rich Presence gives you the ability to show what tasks you're playing in Aim Lab as your Discord Status. Show friends what task you're currently playing, how long you’ve been playing and see what tasks others are playing as well.

Exciting news! We’ve extended our partnership to be the “Official Global Training Partner for the VALORANT Champions Tour”, and to celebrate we’ve built an extra special feature for VALORANT lovers! We’ve created 7 new VALORANT tasks inspired by real moments during this season’s VALORANT Champions tour letting you experience the clutch pounding moments from the perspective of the pro players who pulled them off.
Additionally… and this is completely new, we’ve built an exclusive music rhythm task featuring the new official Champions anthem “Die For You” by Grabbitz (it’s super fun, I recommend you definitely try it!). To top it off, you might notice we’ve added Jett’s knives as a new weapon to train with inside a couple of the pro tasks 😃
VALORANT Pro Task Recreations
We’ve all hit some incredible shots during our games, but to pull a clutch during a high-pressure tournament is on another level. So we’ve created seven top moments from the VALORANT Champions Tour for you to live the moment of.
Let’s meet the featured pros who have their high octane moments available for you to train in:
Hiko Step into the shoes of Hiko during his 1v3 clutch moment on Icebox
Lakia Recreate and train in Lakai’s 1v2 clutch on Ascent

Tightly packed into this release are some of the most requested features and quality of life overhauls. We’ve spent time upgrading our controller support - a huge ask from the community, reworked playlists to the point it’s launching as v2.0, included accessibility options, all while squashing another metric ton of bugs including a pesky log in issue! Let’s dive in
Enhanced Controller Support
One of the biggest feature requests from the controller community has been enhanced support. This patch brings a complete overhaul for our players which now includes full cursor UI navigation and interaction for controller users. We've also made some quality of life improvements to help make modifying key bindings for controllers more user-friendly and to handle controller connectivity interruptions.
Playlist V2.0
Playlists have been revamped with a new UI along with fixing some on-going functionality issues and overall bringing a hugely improved experience.
Target Kill Latency Reduction
We've reduced the latency when a target is both killed and spawns resulting in smoother gameplay - ultimately meaning the gameplay experience will be more fluid for everyone.
Target Colorblind options
As we strive to improve our accessibility, we’ve implemented colorblind-friendly target colors including Tritanopia, Deuteranopioa & Protanopia to make it easier for those who need it to distinguish the target differences.
To find the options, go to settings, game, and they are included in the list of target color options.
If there are any other accessibility options you wanted to see included, make sure to reach out to us on Discord or Twitter.
Fixed - User Login / Session Expired
