La Reina in the Making
[p]Some keen eyed players caught this shot in our Mecha Event trailer earlier this month and asked, "Did they really model a random chair for the meme?" [/p][p][/p][p]While, "they would", was a completely accurate answer.... that wasn't the case this time. If you were someone who guessed this was actually a sneak peak of La Reina's chair - you nailed it! Development for La Reina has been going on behind the scenes for some time now. But who is La Reina? Let's Recap.[/p][p][/p][p]![]()
[/p][h2]A Rival with a Unique Background[/h2][p][/p][p]It's been over 2 years since we launched our Workshop Character Contest. Throughout the second half of 2023, tons of amazing creators submitted over 80 high quality characters to the Rivals 1 workshop - with the winning character chosen to eventually join Rivals 2. La Reina, a magnetic grappler by Onyx and Sa-V, was that winning entry. Check out footage of her and other entrants below for a taste of some of the competition:[/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]Since La Reina is in the unique position of being the ONLY character that's actually been revealed before her reveal trailer, we thought we'd do something a little different as we lead up to her future release.[/p][p][/p][h2]Enter: La Reina in the Making[/h2][p][/p][p]Since the cat (ant?) is out of the bag with La Reina, we plan to take players along on a behind-the-scenes look at what goes into creating a character, with her in the spotlight. Stay tuned for with us as we start a series covering:[/p]![]()
