General

• Brazil, Asia/Pacific Rim, and Australia servers are now available.
• To improve the quality of our matchmaking experience, we've removed timed queues.
• To address player concerns about waiting too long for a game, we've introduced a system that will fill matches with AI opponents if certain conditions are met.

Gameplay

• Weapons
  • Stone Staff
    • Now has damage falloff over range.
  • Venom Pistol
    • Improved weapon handling.
    • “The Venom Pistol is a very effective weapon in terms of damage throughput but in practical situations it was very difficult to consistently land all three shots. We have made some changes to make the Venom Pistol feel more consistent.”
• Abilities
  • Fire Bomb
    • Damage no longer scales based on target’s maximum health.
    • “It will now always deal the same damage to all enemies, chickens will no longer take less damage, warriors will no longer take more damage.”
• Chickens
  • Reduced chicken speed by 10%.
  • “While chickens should be able to escape with cunning play, it’s important that downing a player is a moment of triumph rather than a moment of frustration. Now the little cluckers will have to rely on quick wits, not quick feet.”
• Potions
  • “With this release we’re making a number of changes to potions. Potions will now lock out weapons and abilities, leaving players vulnerable, but you will be able to move around. The amount that potions heal has been reduced to make potions more individually valuable, especially Health Potions. Armor Potions are one of the most valuable drops in Realm Royale so we want to give players a more consistent path to get them.”
  • Potions can now be used while moving.
  • Potions can no longer be interrupted by weapons or abilities.
  • Reduced Potion casting time from 3 to 2 seconds.
  • Armor Potions
    • Increased drop rate of Armor Potions from Potion chests by 100%.
    • Reduced the cost of crafting Armor Potions from 25 to 15.
    • Reduced starting armor from 500 to 0.
    • Reduced value of Armor Potions from 500 to 300.
  • Health Potions
    • Reduced value of Health Potions from 500 to 300.
• Forges
  • All forges will now be active each game.

Environment

• Changed chest model from gold chest to normal chest.
• Added Runic Stones to the environment

General

• Added Tutorial Queue
  • Tutorial Achievement and Rewards
• Environment
  • Added Snow Graveyard
    • Updated Mini-map

Gameplay

• Weapons
  • Pistol/Venom Pistol
    • No longer drops at Common and Rare rarities.
    • Damage per tick increased by 7.5%.
    • “The Venom Pistol is a unique weapon that we want to be deadly in the hands of a skilled Assassin. This damage buff will help the weapon excel as a close range option. Because the venom pistol is a very situationally powerful we feel it is best reserved for only the higher rarities.”
  • Bolt Staff
    • Now drops at Common and Rare rarities.
    • Damage increased by 5%.
    • Reworked damage falloff.
    • “The Bolt Staff was a little weak in comparison to the Mage’s other options so the damage buff should help it secure eliminations. The change to Damage Falloff will make the weapon more effective over short to mid range. It is a good general purpose weapon so it will now drop at all rarities.”
  • Heavy Crossbow
    • No longer has damage falloff over range.
    • “The Heavy Crossbow was intended to be a longer range option for the Hunter, this change should make it far stronger in long range fights.”
  • Rifle/Heirloom Rifle
    • Now fires a projectile, rather than instant fire.
    • “The Heirloom Rifle was performing well in terms of damage output, but being the only instant fire class weapon made it distinctly powerful, especially when combined with the frost element.”
  • Stone Staff
    • Damage Reduced by 6%.
    • “The Stone Staff is meant to be a weapon that rewards hitting all 3 shots from its burst. However, in the hands of a player who was able to consistently hit their shots it could beat out most weapons even in their ideal range. Our goal is to make sure that the Stone Staff is rewarding but not overwhelming so we’ll continue to keep a close eye on this weapon in future patches.”
• Abilities
  • Hidden
    • Now moves at standard sprint speed while active.
    • “Because Hidden is an active ability it disallowed players from sprinting, causing it to move slower than normal movement. Stealth is intrinsically very powerful so we need to be careful with it, but this should make moving around during Hidden a little easier.”
