Then, head on down to Mallhalla, where you’ll find the New West Cassidy Skin bursting through the saloon doors ready for a standoff duel. If fighting those gargoyles tires you out, try the new Faint Emote. We've also added 9 new Avatars, including country flags and Doodles, so stand ready with your Avatar Cape and Flag Emote!

We’ve also added new challenges to the Challenges Preview available in Offline Play, made game improvements, bug fixes, and so much more. Log in and get ready to BRAWL!

Patch 7.04 introduces a different kind of challenge to Brawlhalla. When selecting Horde mode in both Custom Lobbies and Offline Play, you’ll have the option to select between classic Horde and the new Nightmare Horde mode.

Nightmare Horde is our first ever extreme difficulty variation of an existing Game Mode. Featuring all new gargoyle creature designs and an exclusive Horde variation of Demon Island. The rules are the same, earn the most points by stopping the approaching gargoyles from entering the portals. 

This is intended to be extremely difficult for even the most accomplished portal defenders. Team up with your most trusted allies and see if you can withstand the onslaught!









New West Cassidy

• “She's got a quick-draw that rivals a four-armed gunslinger's!”
  
• There’s a new sheriff in town, and she moonlights as a saloon owner! Cassidy’s ready to face any outlaw or confront any unruly patrons with her gilded “Bovine Skull Mallet” and “Rose Gold Revolvers.”

Faint Emote

In Patch 7.02 we introduced a preview of the new Challenges system. As we continue to expand this preview, this update includes 2 more challenges for players to test their skills.

Battle Boots Offstage Carry

• This Battle Boots string demonstrates the Battle Boots ability to carry your opponent offstage.

Katar Half Pipe Variation 1

• This destructive Katar string is great when you catch your opponents without a dodge! It has many variations. Try this variation that ends with a powerful finisher!

We’ve added tags in “Meet the Legends” to clarify which Legends qualify for certain Battle Pass Missions. Note that different Skins may have unique tags, so make sure to check them all out!





There are some new updates to the player indicator preferences.

• Names and icons can now be set individually to appear over just yourself, all players, team, or no one.
  
• New "mixed" icon mode that displays different icons per team.
  
• New Name/Icon size preference option allows players to make icons and/or names larger or smaller.
  
• Added an outline to icons to make them more visible.

This update should help everyone, especially colorblind players, know which player is on which team during gameplay. These changes reflect our ongoing efforts to make Brawlhalla more accessible to all.





We’re excited to add a new test feature that shows an effect that indicates when a Legend has been disarmed. This can be played in the Experimental queue and any Custom Game with Test Features enabled. Also, the Dodge Cooldown changes have been removed from Test Features and did not graduate.



There is a new visual effect that shows when a Legend has been disarmed by an opponent. The effect appears as bright colored sparks that fly off the Legend.





The Dodge Cooldown changes have been removed from Test Features. The longer cooldown proved to be too punishing and resulted in fewer moments of interaction for most players, with less incentive to maintain ground control or return to the ground.

Please share all of your feedback with us on our socials like Twitter and Discord! For more information, visit brawlhalla.com/test-features.

Patch 7.03 launches our newest Battle Pass Season 7: VallhallaQuest! We also released a balance pass in this update, so check out the details below.

To view the complete patch notes, visit this post.

To catch the latest Brawlhalla news and content, be sure to follow us on Twitter, Twitch, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and Discord!



This round of balance updates sets the initial stage for the 2023 tournament season. Every Weapon has received various adjustments based on your feedback and tournament results. A variety of Signatures have also received quality of life improvements, as well as reining in some Signatures that were too strong or carried too little risk for their overall utility. This patch also contains the first round of balance updates for the newest Legend and Weapon, Tezca and the Battle Boots, which means Tezca is now legal for use in official Brawlhalla tournaments.



The Axe Neutral Air now has slightly greater Stun to allow for more reliable follow-up attacks from this low Force aerial. The Axe Side Air has slightly less Recover time on miss as its risk was proving to be too great in high level matches.

• Axe Side Air: Decreased Recover time on miss from 2 Fixed/26 Variable to 1 Fixed/26 Variable.
  
• Axe Neutral Air: Increased Stun from 25 to 26.

The Battle Boots Neutral Light now has slightly greater Time to Hit, given its slightly greater range and carry distance than other attacks of identical Time to Hit. The Side Light's Maximum DI Angle has been greatly increased to prevent repetitive team combos. The Down Light now has greater risk with an increased Recover time on miss that is similar to most other combo starter attacks. The Active Input version of the Side Air has been greatly re-tuned, with a much shorter Hit Window for greatly decreased travel and carry distance, a decrease in Force that takes significantly longer to scale to knockout range and prevents the Stun time from scaling at specific early health ranges, as well as a decrease in Stun time for greater escape windows from follow-up attacks. We have also decreased the Force of the normal Side Air and the Recovery attack for less power from its combo enders and main knockout threats in the neutral game. The Battle Boots Ground Pound now has less threat coverage at the rear and bottom of the charge to allow for more reliable escapes when maneuvering behind this attack.

• Battle Boots Neutral Light: Increased Time to Hit from 5 to 6.

The Hammer Neutral Air now has greater allowed acceleration and maximum speed equivalent to its previous values from the start of the 2022 Season. Similarly, the Hammer Side Air now has greater Stun, Force, threat coverage near the user, and a lower angle of knockback that returns this attack to its state from the start of the 2022 Season.

• Hammer Side Light: Increased Stun from a range of 25~19 to a range of 26~20.
  
• Hammer Side Air: Increased Stun from 22 to 25; Angle of knockback is now slightly more vertical; Force increased from 58~52 Fixed/45~44 Variable to 60~55 Fixed/45~44 Variable; Slightly increased threat coverage near the user.
  
• Hammer Neutral Air: Slightly increased allowed acceleration and maximum speed during the Time to Hit and Hit Window.

The Katars Neutral Light and Neutral Air now have slightly greater Recover time on miss to create wider gaps between this weapon's main poking tools in the neutral game. This power has been shifted into the Side Light as less Recover time on miss for its grounded approach tool.

• Katars Neutral Light: Increased Recover time on miss from 3 Fixed/12 Variable to 4 Fixed/12 Variable.
  
• Katars Side Light: Decreased Recover time on miss from 4 Fixed/16 Variable to 2 Fixed/16 Variable.

• Cross Neutral Gauntlets: Decreased Force from 75 Fixed/50 Variable to 70 Fixed/48 Variable.

Dusk's Neutral Spear was previously too narrow to be used as a reliable anti-air in most cases, so it now has a larger flame with wider threat coverage.

• Dusk Neutral Spear: Greatly increased horizontal threat coverage.

Ember's Neutral Bow now has a shorter Hit Window, slightly less grounded threat coverage at the front, less threat coverage at the rear, and decreased force. This notably decreases its knockout potential, given its diagonal knockback angle, and slightly decreases its utility and dodge coverage. This power has been shifted into Ember's Neutral Katars for less Recover time and greater Force on this lesser-used anti-air attack.

• Ember Neutral Bow: Decreased the Hit Window from 11 to 9; Decreased threat coverage at the lower-front and at the rear; Decreased Force from 65 Fixed/54 Variable to 65 Fixed/51 Variable.
  
• Ember Neutral Katars: Decreased Recover time from 23 to 20; Increased Force from 75 Fixed/50 Variable to 75 Fixed/53 Variable.

Fait's Down Scythe telegraphs its movement a great deal, so we have decreased its Minimum Charge time for greater surprise and utility on this unique attack.

• Fait Down Scythe: Decreased Minimum Charge time from 12 to 10.

Kaya's Neutral Spear now has less Force to better match its utility and dodge coverage after certain attacks such as a Down Light. Kaya's Down Spear and Neutral Bow now both have greater Minimum Charge time, and respective Time to Hit and time before movement adjustments, to slow down the initial threat of these high utility Signatures and widen Dodge Windows when these attacks are used from most strings.

• Kaya Neutral Spear: Decreased Force from 70 Fixed/53 Variable to 70 Fixed/51 Variable.
  
• Kaya Down Spear: Increased Time to Hit from 13 to 15; Increased Minimum Charge time from 36 to 38.

The total duration of Line Fei's Neutral Cannon is one of the fastest in the game and can be difficult to answer as the attack ends in the air, so we have increased the Recover time for more reliable punish attempts.

• Lin Fei Neutral Cannon: Increased total Recover time from 16 to 19.

Magyar's Side Hammer had significantly less total threat coverage than other similar attacks, so we have increased the size of the ground strike for much greater threat coverage near the user. Magyar's Down Hammer now has a quicker response with less Minimum Charge time and earlier movement for more reliable use. We have greatly increased the Force of Magyar's Neutral Greatsword to better match its total duration and relatively narrow threat coverage.

• Magyar Down Hammer: Decreased Time before movement from 7 to 4; Decreased Minimum Charge time from 23 to 20.
  
• Magyar Side Hammer: Increased threat coverage at the rear and top of the attack.

Orion's Down Spear has the potential to do more damage if the opponent is caught in the center of the attack. This maximum Damage has been decreased, which results in the average Damage being slightly decreased in most cases. We have also reduced the Force of this Signature for slightly later knockouts that better match its threat coverage and overall utility.

• Orion Down Spear: Decreased maximum Damage from 35 to 30; Decreased Force from 48 Fixed/53 Variable to 48 Fixed/51 Variable.

Tezca's Neutral Gauntlets and Down Boots have both received decreases in the Force of their aerial spikes, making a clearer difference to favor the grounded versions for high Force knockouts. The secondary ground explosions of Tezca's Neutral Gauntlets, Down Gauntlets, and Down Boots, as well as the secondary knockback during the Side Gauntlets spin, have all been significantly decreased. These secondary hits will still scatter other players that are too close, but will not score any knockouts at most health ranges. The aerial version of Tezca's Neutral Gauntlets has also received a significant decrease in Stun for greater escape windows after being thrown by this Signature. The Neutral Gauntlets also has greater Recover time on miss for more reliable punish attempts, as it can often be difficult to track down Signatures that end in the air. Similarly, we have increased the Recover time of Tezca's Side Boots to allow for a wider punish window after the bright Hit Window has ended and the darker non-threatening dissipation effects begin and then clear up.

• Tezca Neutral Gauntlets: Decreased Force of the aerial version from 50 Fixed/33 Variable to 50 Fixed/20 Variable; Decreased Stun of the aerial version from 22 to 18; Increased total Recover time on miss from 24 to 26; Changed Force of the ground explosion that can strike nearby players from 50 Fixed/40 Variable to 80 Fixed/10 Variable.

• Tezca Neutral Battle Boots: Fixed a case where the target could be dropped before the final hit when performed near soft platforms.
  
• Tezca Side Boots: Increased total Recover time from 20 to 23.
  
• Tezca Down Boots: Decreased Force of the aerial version from 48 Fixed/33 Variable to 50 Fixed/20 Variable; Changed Force of the ground explosion that can strike nearby players from 50 Fixed/40 Variable to 80 Fixed/10 Variable.

Thatch's Neutral Blasters now has a shorter Minimum Charge time for a quicker response on this attack's smaller first shot. This also allows it to be used as a combo from a Blasters Down Light in more Stances, as it was previously limited in choice.

• Thatch Neutral Blasters: Decreased Minimum Charge time from 12 to 11.

The movement of Vector's Side Bow has been adjusted to decrease the gap between its starting location and first hitbox, while maintaining its total travel distance. Similarly, Vector's Side Rocket Lance now lifts off more vertically during the charge to decrease the gap between its starting location and first hitbox, as it was previously too likely to overshoot these attacks.

• Vector Side Bow: Movement adjusted for increased threat coverage during the initial step.
  
• Vector Side Rocket Lance: Adjusted initial rise to be more vertical to slightly decrease the horizontal dead zone on the beginning of the attack.

Wu Shang's Side Spear now has greatly decreased Force to better match this Signature's priority and overall speed.

• Wu Shang Side Spear: Decreased Force from 68 Fixed/52 Variable to 63 Fixed/50 Variable.
