To update everyone, we have a hotfix that will go out soon regarding the recent sound bug in-game. As stated last week, we will update you on our social media as soon as it is ready to go live. In addition to that, we are still investigating an issue with our Salt Io skin where she is not available for Direct Purchase.

Here’s what is going on this week:

2022 Paladins® Valentine's Day Avatar Submission Program

Champions of the Realm!

We love to see all of the incredible fan art tons of our community members create (especially with all of this extra free time this year), and we wanted to give you another chance at getting your art into the game! As we gear up for Hi-Rez Showcase, we wanted to open up submissions for you to enter your own fan art in hopes of your art pieces being turned into Avatars for everyone to earn for free during our first update of 2022.

Starting now, you can submit your fan art for our Evil Mojo team to review and select to be a part of our Paladins update that falls in line with Valentine’s Day! Submissions close on November 30th, 2021, so make sure to get your art in before the submission form closes! Bring out the big guns and show us what you’ve got! We simply can’t wait to see what you come up with!

The chosen submissions will receive our newly unveiled “Community Creator” spray and title as well as 10 codes for their in-game Avatar!

Make your submissions here, and become familiar with all the rules listed below.

Best of luck to all our community artists!
