We are planning another major update before the end of the year, the game will keep improving to V1.0.

See you in town cowboys ;)

The West is expanding, and our new Mexico City map is bustling with activity! It won't be long before some Outlaws start making trouble.

Sheriffs and Outlaws can now taunt or distract each other with different sounds. Outlaws can also leave spray paint sigils around town to distract the Sheriff and keep them off their trail.

Get your running boots on, because Outlaws will now have the ability to run for up to 10s after successfully completing a task. Careful when you use it!

We're also excited to add more custom game parameters for our community as well! You'll soon be able to invite more friends to join in on the fun with 3v3 and 3v2 options in Custom Games!

Exclusive skins will soon be available for content creators of different platforms! Stay tuned for more details on how to get them!

In addition to all these exciting new features will come some balancing updates as well!

And don’t forget you can come up with your own custom alias in your profile for only a few coins. You have enough from robbing the bank right?

All in all it’s looking mighty lively in the Old West, and Mexico City has plenty to offer if you’re ready to shoot your shot.
