🚨 EMERGENCY MEETING GENERALS! 🚨

We’re excited to announce our collaboration with Innersloth to bring you a RISK x Among Us update!



Fight for domination in the world of Among Us with exclusive maps and cosmetics. Take the risk, betray your allies and sabotage your enemies.

Coming December 11th at 00:00 UTC.

We’re wrapping up our last update for the year and it includes a couple of goodies, starting with Secret Missions - a brand new way to play RISK that’s been requested for years. You’ll be able to try it out next month in solo/casual lobbies in 3.17 (ranked coming 2025). Let us know what you think!

Here's a sneak peek of our first pass - closed beta starts this week!



Team RISK@SMG.

Hello there! What’s that? You want to know the latest RISK goss 🧐?

Well, you’ve come to the right place!

Welcome to Community Bulletin #29, where we bring you all the updates and events going on in the world of RISK! Whether you’re a grandmaster or a novice just starting your journey for global domination, there’s something here for everyone.

This bulletin is filled with exciting announcements, community highlights and some sneak peeks at what’s coming soon! As always, we’re so grateful for your continued support, and we can’t wait to see what you think of the upcoming changes!

Let’s roll out! (Like a dice, not a transformer 😅)



Fancy a little update from the devs?
[h3]Update 3.16[/h3]
It’s time to rep the red, white, and blue,the battle for Global Domination is taking a patriotic turn with brand new USA themed content, out now!

[h3]Watch the full update here: [/h3]

[h3]Maps[/h3]
We’ve taken the key regions of the USA and created an “Advanced” pack for those who like ‘em large, featuring 4 new maps!



[h3]Dice[/h3]
I love the smell of dice in the new update!



[h3]Troops[/h3]
Soldiers roll out!



[h3]Frames[/h3]
Show your allegiance with 5 new Avatar Frames inspired by the USA.



[h3]Halloween Sale[/h3]
Last week we released 3 terrifying new Dice and 3 haunting new Troops for spooky seasons!
Can you spook your opponents into surrendering? Join the frightful fun—if you dare!



[h2]Sneak Peek[/h2]
Shhh… you didn’t hear this from us, but we’ve got some thrilling updates on the way! Here’s a little taste of what’s brewing in the world of RISK:

[h3]Game Modes[/h3]
A brand new game mode is in the works. While I can’t spill all the beans just yet, I can guarantee you’re going to love this one! But for now, it’s going to be top-secret! 🤫 Just keep those eyes peeled!

[h3]Dice Rolls[/h3]
The dev team are currently looking into dice rolls. We’re already happy with the way true random operates, however we are looking into blitz dice rolls, specifically at the higher dice rolls. You can expect to see some adjustments to the blitz dice rolls early 2025.

[h3]Map Screen Overhaul[/h3]
We hear you-scrolling through maps can feel endless! Because of this, we’re overhauling this screen to make it easier to find exactly what you’re looking for. You’ll soon be able to save favourites and navigate through the map search much faster.

[h3]New Content[/h3]
The art team has been hard at work, cooking up some new content. Here’s a sneak peek.

• New maps
  
• New troops
  
• New dice
  
• New frames
  
• And yes - those highly requested emotes and avatars are on the way! (We’re just as excited as you are 😀)
  

That’s all I can share for now 😉 but if I had to sum up the next few updates in three emoji’s, I’d go: 🔥🤫🚀.

Never found a better Steam review to sum up RISK.



Can anyone from Gen Alpha confirm if this is a good thing? (I am still trying to keep up with today’s slang 😅) I’m guessing it’s positive…?



Someone put a 60 second turn timer on the board game 🤣. We can imagine the intensity of a real-life blitz round, talk about fast decisions!
