Three new roles will be coming soon to GGD including:

• Preacher Duck - You can target Non-Ducks to increase their voting power.
  
• Seamstress Goose - You can compare corruption once per round.
  
• Sin Eater Duck - Collect corruption to gain the ability to kill in an area at the cost of your life. If you kill enough players you will survive.
  

Corruption will soon become its own game mode. Players that enjoy the corruption mechanic and roles will still be able to play with corruption while allowing players that prefer to play classic or draft will soon have the option to do so! By separating corruption into a new game mode, this will also allow corruption to be implemented into other maps without removing the classic/draft experience.


Pelican will be travelling to new maps including:

• Mallard Manor
  
• Jungle Temple
  

What will happen when the boulder runs over the Pelican? what will happen when the Pelican gets hit with the chandelier? You'll have to wait to find out!


Tastes Like Chicken is going to be a team-based mini-battle royale for 8-16 players where the objective is to eliminate other teams.
Players will have three states:

• Living - Able to fight against other teams and utilize abilities
  
• Downed - In a vulnerable state to be eliminated by Chickens or timer. Can only be revived by Chicken.
  
• Dead - Cannot be revived, has been eliminated
  

The new Chicken role will be responsible for reviving downed teammates as well as finishing downed enemies.

We are releasing the Saint Goose, as well as updating the help screen. We understand that the game has a lot of nuance and different mechanics in the different maps. The information screen will now have other tabs where you can learn about the sabotages and the map mechanics.


The balance on the new map is currently in favor of the ducks. We’ve decided to release the Saint goose to help counteract that. The Saint Goose is immune to the effects of corruption, and thus they can walk over as much corruption as they want. They need to be careful to not be too obvious, or the high priest will shoot them.
