We are pleased to present the major update “Black Sun” for Cuisine Royale. You already know about new rituals and weapons, tasks and rating model. And here is the top story - new Champion will join the fight in our brutal survival games.

[h3]So, meet Valentine ‘Viper’ Chase.[/h3]



Chase grew up in biker gangs and later founded her own one, becoming the biker queen of the Black Sun club. Even as a teenager she demonstrated impressive skills in fast gunfighting. Val has a unique ability, allowing her to rock in close quarters crossfire. After entering the ‘Flickering Step’ mode, she can jump through space, chasing an enemy, flanking them or escaping from the fight scene. 

Flickering Step mode lasts 24 seconds, allowing her to jump forward at any time for it’s duration. Each jump subtracts 6 seconds from the overall duration, thus allowing up to 4 jumps. Each jump covers about 20 meters if no obstacles are met. 

Viper has three different outfits: city coverall, racing biker suit and biker queen suit. 

As for other changes, you’ll find:

• New medicine mask. We do not want our champions to catch a virus. Doubtful it can survive our deathlands, but who wants to risk it mutating in the Dark Zone?.. Oh, and the mask will make special abilities easier to be used in battle.
• Summer returns to normandy. From now on both versions of that location will be equally available in rotation.
• Scope reworked - now they look much more realistic.
• Annie ‘Pinup’ Ashley got a new camo suit, resembling her mercenary past.

• New tasks and rewards system added.
• New mystic signs added:
  • Sun Eclipse ritual - turning day to night for the duration of the ritual.
  • Global Flood ritual - temporarily raises water levels in the location.

Cuisine Royale Champions!

It is the right time to make the system of daily tasks more useful and diverse! That’s why in the upcoming major update “Weird West: Black Sun” you will get brand new missions and prizes.



The principle of receiving rewards will be changed: you will receive prizes according to the prize chain for the season when performing tasks. The prize table sheet will be changed every two months, so the time to complete the entire task chain is limited.

Rewards will now include not only the usual royal bucks and experience points, but also items from the workshop and unique equipment items. Having the book will guarantee access to premium rewards that will replace the previous premium tasks.

If you are in a position where you can not manage to finish some tasks to achieve your goal in time, you will be able to purchase them for golden crowns

As for the research of new champions, the principle will remain the same - that is completing a required number of tasks. Also if you have the book you will be able to get extra points in research progress.

We will write in the nearest feature about the other novelties in the upcoming update, follow the news!
