I know things have been kinda quiet around here, but I wanted to drop in and preview some of the new content coming up in the next update. 00.02.12 will be the biggest update ever in Brimstone Brawlers and will contain a bunch of new content and systems.

Thanks for hanging around and for all the support so far, things are only going to get better from here.

[h2]Gamemodes[/h2]

[h3]Skirmish (New)[/h3]

Skirmish is a new work-in-progress, timed gamemode which allows players to swap brawlers in live games. This is being developed as a more casual player experience focused towards new players.

Any user will be able to host a Skirmish server and the host does not need to actively play the game. This is a step towards dedicated servers and better flowing gamemodes.
