The Super Halloween event is in full swing! Read the full patch notes for the event and candy corn hunt here. Previously, all kills were worth 1 candy corn in addition to the candy corn you can find around the island. Today’s update boosts the amount of candy corn you get for kills:

• Bots still drop a single candy corn piece in Duos & Squads, but now drop 3 in Solos.
  
• Players now drop 3 candy corn in Duos & Squads, and 5 (a bowl) in Solos.
  
• The last kill of the game is worth 5 candy corn in all three modes, and is granted automatically without needing to pick it up.

Day of the Dead (Día de Muertos) is almost here, and it has brought 4 new Super Alebrije breeds to the fight! Create them in the Research Lab:

• Super Alebrije Tiger
  
• Super Alebrije Blue Jay
  
• Super Alebrije Monkey

• Twister Explosion

The JAG-7 is an epic & legendary tier shotgun with faster reload, 7 pellets per shot (up from 5 pellets with regular shotguns) and allows its user to move more quickly while using it. Epic rarity JAG-7 Shotguns can spawn in the world, but the legendary versions are only available in mole crates. You'll know your enemy has one when you hear its roar!

You can now test guns in the game lobby, but only in the Super Shooting Gallery area.

We've also added a new system for bullet spread, and want your feedback on it! Previously, each gun had a set spread amount that was applied randomly to each of the bullets it shot. Each shot fired would pick a direction within that spread, and the amount would be amplified further if you were moving. This system lacked clarity, and actions like rolling did not affect it, so we've made a number of improvements to the way this works in addition to adding a new gun spread UI for clarity:

• Most guns have first shot accuracy, especially while standing still.
  
• As you shoot, the spread will grow (with rate and maximum based on the gun type).
  
• The spread will shrink back down after 0.2s of not shooting.
  
• Rolling and creep-rolling will cause a temporary widening of spread.
  
• Standing still or creeping will reset spread quicker than running.
  
• New indicators have been added near the cursor to highlight the current weapon spread. They will also fade out as you aim further away, indicating the lessening of effectiveness for that gun as the range gets further.
  
• Weapon rarity will no longer affect recoil, making each gun more consistent and easy to learn.

We'll continue to refine these systems along with your feedback, so make sure to let us know in the #sar-feedback channel in our Discord server, or in the Steam forums!

• Poison Dart Gun's projectile speed increased (for both uncommon and rare versions).
  
• Poison Dart Gun's poison damage reduced from 12 to 9 (per tick), but it can now fully eliminate your enemy. If you’re poisoned, be quick with using health items to avoid dying!
  
• Sniper bullet speed reduced by about 4%. This brings it a bit closer to rifles, while still being faster.
  
• Sniper rarities changed visually to better match their power: common (gray) changed to rare (blue), uncommon (green) changed to epic (purple), and rare (blue) changed to legendary (gold). All stats remain the same aside from the aforementioned bullet speed.
  
• Sniper world-spawn rate decreased slightly to match the increased rarities.
  
• Sniper lowered to 2 ticks of damage to Hamster Balls, so if the Hamster Ball is undamaged, it will take 2 shots to break it.
  
• Shotgun pellets now spread out much more evenly.
  
• Shotgun blasts no longer damage armor on a player if they were in a hamster ball (until the next shot).
  
• Skunk bomb now lasts for 5.4s instead of 4.2s (2 additional damage ticks).
  
• Minigun fixed to point more accurately to where you're aiming.

• The winner(s) of a match will get 100 bonus experience, and top 5 (or top 3 in duos & top 2 in squads) will get 50 bonus experience.
  
• Two milestones added for the Super Shooting Gallery.
  
• Gas circle has been improved so that it will pick more parts of the map, while avoiding ocean & water bodies.
  
• The Giant Eagle will now be more random and varied in its flight path directions.
  
• Many small map improvements to various spots across the island.
  
• Mole crates are now guaranteed to always drop at least one gun.
  
• Health Juice containers will leave the remainder on the ground if you reach maximum while picking one up.
  
• Controller aimer will now be a bit further or closer depending on the weapon's effective range.
  
• Controller aimer fixed to match where you are aiming.
  
• Fixed buttons on the item reward popup having overflowing text with certain translations.
  
• Fixed item auto-pickup causing player reviving to cancel.
  
• Fixed shadows glitching with some environment pieces.
  
• Vampire bat cosmetics placement/sizing fixed.
  
• Fix applied for the leveling up sound playing forever in some rare cases.

The Super Animals are donning their costumes and planning out trick-or-treat routes, which can only mean one thing: Super Halloween is upon us! Candy corn is scattered across the island, so round up your best dressed squadmates and get hunting. You’ll be able to redeem your candy corn spoils for 20 event-exclusive halloween cosmetics until November 10th.

The S.A.W. scientists have also whipped up 4 new hair-raising Halloween Super Breeds (and a 5th additional bonus breed) for you to create in the Research Lab, bringing the total up to 254 breeds!


The Super Halloween event is only the beginning of our Super October schedule. Next Friday at 6pm PST, Donk and Howl will be streaming the live YouTube Premiere of the sixth episode of Super Animal Royale Tonight, and the week after that, we’re releasing our next Major Update for the game, including significant new additions to the island that you might just see teased in SAR Tonight!

Friday, October 25th - Super Animal Royale Tonight Episode 6: Hee-haunting Howl-aween

During the event, you’ll find candy corn scattered around the island, in 3 different quantities. Individual candy corn pieces are common, but you’ll also have a rare chance of finding a bundle of 3 candy corn pieces or an even rarer chance of finding a bowl of 5. Candy corn replenishes your health too: 5, 15 or 25 hp depending on the size of the candy corn pile you’ve found.

You can trade in your candy corn for items of your choosing, from a selection of 20 limited-edition event items! And if you want to be a pro trick-or-treater and collect them all, be sure to invite your friends to hunt with you in Duos or Squads since all candy corn collected is shared amongst your group.

Get your cat DNA ready: a purrfectly deadly duo has arrived in the Research Lab! Super Bobcat and Super Lynx join the fight alongside a long list of community requested improvements and new languages!

Yesterday we also had a bit of downtime due to an outage with our matchmaking provider, so we're giving everyone an epic rarity item drop as thanks for bearing with us! You'll receive it in the main menu within the next few hours :).

Super Animal Royale now supports 5 additional languages (bringing the total up to 11):

• German
  
• Italian
  
• French
  
• Spanish (Spain)
  
• Spanish (Latin America)

And all of the existing languages are getting upgrades as well, with translations for every animal, item, and cosmetic in the game. Join us in extending a HUGE thanks to all of the volunteer translators from the community who make this possible!

• You can now play your last used emote by tapping the emote wheel hotkey.
  
• Tapping while in an emote will cancel the current emote.
  
• Reduced size of the 'Cancel' circle slightly, so reaching an emote is faster.
  
• Keyboard users can now bind emotes to individual hotkeys. By default, they are unbound.
  
• For controller users, the emote wheel will appear on the side you are facing.

Thanks for all the suggestions for improving accessibility (especially Lavender, from our Discord community)! We'll be doing even more over time, but for now we've upgraded readability in a bunch of places in the game interface:

• The gun skins tab in the Customize menu now uses icons for each gun, which both looks nicer and fixes some languages that were overflowing the panel.
  
• Items that had their milestone requirements in the name will now show it in the description instead.

• Made some texture settings changes which should lower memory usage and load times a bit.
  
• Silenced Pistol reload sound extended slightly, to match the actual time.
  
• Small optimizations to game code.
  
• Fix for the ammo label glitching when toggling UI.
  
• Fix for controller navigation on some items in the Customize menu.
  
• Fix for the Fennec's sleeves.

Super Parrots are here and they've brought the long awaited emote wheel with them! Express yourself with up to 6 emotes in-game, and unlock 6 new emotes (3 of which are available via new Milestones). We've packed this update full of new features including loading screen tips, new daily challenges and milestones, gameplay refinements (carry up to 10 bananas!) and more.

Equip up to 6 emotes to your wheel in the Customize screen, and flex all your dances and emotes in-game with the new wheel UI. It works on both keyboard and controller with the same key (default “v” on keyboard and d-pad left on controller) but now you hold the button/key down, select the emote you want, and release (or release in the middle to cancel.)

We’ve also added 6 new emotes. 3 available via Super Milestones and 3 available in the regular drop pool.

3 Milestone Emotes:

• Banan Pew Pew (100 banana slips on enemies)
  
• Gem Reveal (reach level 10 and then you can show off your gem with an emote!)
  
• Blow a Kiss (win 10 duos or squads games)

If you’ve already completed the milestone’s requirements, you’ll earn the emotes at the end of the first game you play after you update.

• Yawn (uncommon)
  
• Peanut Butter Jelly Time (rare)
  
• Tap Dance (epic)

• Magnum and Deagle now use big bullets (rather than little bullets).
  
• Items now drop more frequently when cutting grass.
  
• In-game emote sounds will now play for yourself and up to one other person. Previously you'd only hear one emote sound at a time.
  
• The (not a) rat in Superite Mountain now takes all types of damage from any gun (but you might want to think about which particular gun you use if you're hunting for secret milestones 😉).

• Reduced the edge of vision buffer space to more perfectly align the vision of non-1080p players to the standard 1080p view (taller or wider resolutions see more environment but the fog of war cuts off vision beyond 1080p).
  
• Fixed a bug where controller input was being picked up while SAR is in the background.
  
• Fixed a bug with re-rolling daily challenges and emoting.
  
• Fixed an issue where taping would cancel if another tape auto-looted under you.

• Sleeves fixed on police outfit.

Join Donk, Howl and the intrepid new field reporter, Joe Cluck, as they review your superest and blooperest clips of the month, in a flawless episode where absolutely nothing goes wrong.


The Poison Dart Gun is a new mid-range weapon that applies poison (a damage over time effect) to enemy animals. It does damage through armor, so while using it you don’t need to worry about that pesky level 3.

It really shines when fighting around obstacles and while using hit-and-run tactics, but it’s not going to be the right tool for every engagement. It’s quite powerful when paired with grenades, skunk bombs and when the Skunk Gas is closing in for the final Circle of Life, but if you’re the type to run in guns blazing, it’s not going to have the speed-to-kill of automatic weapons, or the effective range of a sniper. We can’t wait to see how you employ it in fights!

• New Super Animals become available sooner than before, and their levels have been adjusted to match the new system.
  
• Each time you reach level 100, you'll earn rarer and rarer gems mined from Superite Mountain, which represent your prestige level.
  
• DNA Magnets are now awarded every time you level up (after level 5), rather than randomly.
  
• 3 bonus Super Serum will also be granted with each level, in addition to any regular Super Serum drops.

And to all you crazy Super Animals in Discord who have been requesting the ability to Squid up since Monday, we’ve heard you loud and clear and have implemented the most important feature of all: squid hats. Just enter the code “SquidUp” into the coupon code field in the main menu to earn the ability to squid up with your super friends. You’re welcome.


The SAR community has been growing quickly in all 3 regions, but to help the transition from 2 to 3 modes as seamlessly as possible we’ve also upgraded the bots significantly for duos and squads mode. They’ll now roam in teams of two and four respectively and work together to hunt you down (it’s a bit horrifying, but never fear, their difficulty still scales up depending on your level, so they’ll be easier if you’re new to the game).

We’ve also added the highly requested “fill / no fill” option for duos and squads modes so you can choose if you want to be matched up with additional teammates or not when playing with less than a full team.

It’s the final week of the Super Summer Royale event (the event ends on August 9th)! Don’t forget that the fruit baskets you find are shared amongst your team, so hunting for them with your duos and squads teammates works especially well.

We’ll be opening up clip submissions next week for Super Animal Royale Tonight Episode 5, so start collecting your superest and blooperest clips, and look for the link on our Discord, Twitter and Subreddit (r/animalroyale) soon. And if you haven’t seen them, you can check out the series above! Each episode continues the story so they’re best watched in sequence, but the storytelling picks up the most in episode 3, so that’s also a good place to start.

We’ve added a bunch of additional quality of life improvements in addition to the main updates. Here’s your full patch notes for v0.88.7:
