We have a big weekend planned for all you Super Animals working on your Beach Party Passes!

All weekend long you’ll earn Double XP from your games played, dailies, and weeklies to make extra speedy progress through Season 0.5, and we’re also bringing back the limited-time S.A.W. vs Rebellion 32v32 mode. Both begin today (July 29th) at 6pm PDT and will be live until this Sunday (August 1st) at 11:59pm PDT.

We’re also super excited to announce that our new Archive System for Animal Passes will be launching alongside our Season 1 update! The new system allows you to continue making progress on past seasons that you own alongside your progress through the current season.

During the design process for the Animal Pass system last year we had great conversations with many of you about the fear of missing out that tends to come with expiring battle passes. We want Animal Passes to be respectful of your time and not create stress about rushing to complete them, so we devised this system to let you play through them at your own pace!



Just visit “The Archive” once the new update arrives and you’ll be able to activate any previous season passes you own to complete them alongside the current season’s Animal Pass. You can always purchase the current Animal Pass season for 550 S.A.W. Tickets, and previous seasons will also be available for 750 S.A.W. Tickets once they move into the archive.




This weekend, stage a rebellion as a member of the Super Animal Super Resistance (S.A.S.R.) or fight to stop it as part of the Super Animal World (S.A.W.) security forces.

For those who haven’t tried it yet, the mode lets you load into matches with a squad of up to 4, and you’ll be placed on one of the two teams of 32. Then, you’ll take off on one of two Giant Eagles that will drop your team and the enemy team on opposite sides of the island.



Each team wins when they either defeat the entire opposing team of 32 animals or capture and hold 3 or more strategic flags on the island. Flags also provide loot when captured and a health buff when you’re nearby them, so they’re important objectives to prioritize.

The game has two limited-time modes so far (32v32 and Mystery Mode) that we rotate in for special events like this, and we’re working on more, so let us know what you want to see next here or in our official Discord server!




The deadline for clips for the next episode of SAR Tonight is approaching, so get your superest and blooperest moments submitted before this Monday, August 2nd at 11:59pm PDT!

You can get all the details in our previous Steam post about submitting clips right here.


We’re sure many developers would claim the same thing, but we really think we have one of the best communities around, so we’re always looking for opportunities to turn the spotlight on each of you.

The SAR animated series, Super Animal Royale Tonight, aims to do exactly that! In addition to telling SAR stories that sync up with changes in-game on the island, the series showcases the superest (highest skill) and blooperest (funniest and most creative) clips from the community.

You can check out previous episodes from SAR Tonight Season 2 on YouTube.


In addition to clips, this episode will also be highlighting the top selections from the latest Super Fanart Contest. You can view the art from previous art contests here or in-game on the walls of the Super Museum of Modern Art, and if you’d like to submit a piece you can find more information and submit a piece by August 8th here.



As always, your feedback helps us keep making the game better and better, so be sure to share what you want to see next in SAR on Discord, Twitter, Facebook and our Subreddit. See you on the island, Super Animals!

With this preview, we're continuing our look at the various inhabitants you'll encounter in Arakion.

Today let's take a look at The Trogs. This group of flesh-hungry inhabitants of Arakion, will do anything to satiate their hunger and curiosity. Although the majority of them can be found in the aptly named Trogwoods, an unlucky traveler may come across them in deep tunnels throughout all of Arakion. There are countless tales of wayward travelers lost to them.

[Click on images for a larger preview]


The little ones
Racing back and forth through the caverns, Troglings run errands and serve the other Trogs. Don't let this fact fool you, if you encounter them they're still as flesh-hungry as the rest.


The hidden one
The rogue can pop up anywhere and vanish in an instant. These Trogs carry various quick blades and daggers to slice and dice up their next victim for supper.


The bright one
The gifted of the group. The mage both supports his brothers and brings havoc on his enemies.


The thick one
The Warrior siblings rush headfirst into battle, oftentimes with helmets nailed to their heads. These Trogs love fighting, eating, and bashing anything they can find.


Big Brother
The big brother of the bunch. Trogres are as unpredictable as they are massive, laughing and playing in one instant and pulverizing in the next.


Soon I'll do a more in-depth preview of each of these characters, until then that's it for today's update. Check back soon for the next preview!
Have a wonderful day!
