The Official Blood Bowl 3 Ladder is in full swing, and we are thrilled to reveal more details about the competition planned on PC for the end of the season. As we announced with the launch of the Underworld Denizens, top PC players will have the chance to compete in a tournament after the end of Season 2.

There are different ways to qualify, all leading towards the Season Finals and the title of “1st Blood Bowl 3 champion”, along with 5,000$ cash prize and numerous other rewards.

The Season Finals, scheduled for early 2024, will be a 16-player double knock-out tournament. Only 2 players are guaranteed a spot in these finals: the rank 1 and the rank 2 of the Season 2 Official Ladder when it concludes.

To fill the 14 remaining seats, players will need to participate in a Play-In event starting right after the end of the season in December. This Play-In will host 56 players:

• The players ranked 3rd to 28th of the Season 2 Official Ladder.
  
• The top 2 coaches of each faction in the Season 2 Official Ladder, not within the top 28 of the general ranking.
  
• The 2 finalists of the NAF satellite tournament organized by the community.
  

The 14 victorious players from the Play-In will join the Season Finals alongside the 2 players who had already qualified.

This detailed overview provides you with a glimpse of what it takes to reach the Season Finals. Stay tuned for more information about the rules, dates, Play-In format, as well as specifics about the teams qualified players can use in the Play-In and the Season Finals.

Season 2 is all about competition and is a condensed version of the circuit that will unfold over the next few years, involving community competitions as well as finals where the best players will compete for ultimate titles and rewards. While this first edition is only for PC players, we will integrate other platforms to the circuit once cross-play is made available. Get ready for an exhilarating journey in the world of Blood Bowl 3!

Hi Coaches,

A new season brings a fresh Blood Pass! This is also the first season where the Blood Pass is available in the shop, as the Season 1 Blood Pass was given for free as compensation. Now feels like a good time to remind you about the different Blood Pass options: Regular and Premium.

Before going into details, we want to remind you that you can unlock the Faction of the Season for free by completing all 50 tiers, while getting the rewards from the Free tiers in the process. Once you unlcok the Faction, it's permanent. You have it for this seasons and the next to come.


[h3]Regular Blood Pass - 1000 Warpstone: [/h3]

Gain access to the complete Blood Pass content with 50 tiers to unlock as you play.

Blood Pass content includes:

1 New Faction: Underworld Denizens
6 Epic Customizations
23 Rare Customizations
6 Common Customizations
1 Pitch
1 Coach
1 Cheerleader
3 Dugouts
1 Ball
2 Dice Sets
250 Warpstone

[h3]Premium Blood Pass - 2000 Warpstone: [/h3]

Unlock the next 20 tiers of the Blood Pass immediately. You receive all the rewards from the 20 unlocked tiers right away and continue your progression from there.

Note that the Blood Pass is retroactive, so if you purchase it when you are already at Tier 30, you will receive all the rewards from the first 30 tiers as well. This ensures that you won't miss out on any rewards regardless of when you acquire your Blood Pass.

The Regular Blood Pass is a good option for players who plan to spend some time enjoying BB3 and want all the cosmetics content in the process.

The Premium Blood Pass is an option for players with limited playtime who want to ensure they don't miss out on any rewards or for those who want to enjoy certain cosmetic rewards immediately.

In both cases, players have access to the same rewards, and in both cases, you unlock the Underworld Denizen faction right away, permanently.

Ladies and gentlemen, Blood Bowl fans and thrill-seekers, brace yourselves for Season 2 kick off!
