CRSED: Cuisine Royale News

It would seem fitting to ask how the season update can excite the participants of our royal battle? Will it be able to add something to the game that even players with the most curious and enviable imagination could not foresee?

We say: “Weird West” was able to surprise everyone! Try to imagine how varied the battles will be in which everyone will be able to add mysticism: traps, magic signs and rituals. And it is even better that you join the new battle now and prove that you are the most fortunate soul catcher in the Weird West of Cuisine Royale!





As we already discussed, instead of old sprays new sprays have been added to the game - symbols that have mystical power. You will find 28 different seal sprays (sigils) in the workshop. Research them to use them in the battle. To use mystical seals you will need Sinner`s Souls. Kill the enemy and earn more souls - by killing the enemy you will also get the souls which he or she has accumulated!

• Jump pad (40 Sinner`s Souls) — Send anyone who steps in the trap flying upwards.
• Directional push right (40 Sinner`s Souls) — Send anyone who treads on the trap flying in the direction of the arrow.
• Swamp (50 Sinner`s Souls) — -35% movement speed of anyone who is caught in this trap.
• Quicksand (50 Sinner`s Souls) — Weird West Magic Trap: -80% movement speed of anyone who has been caught in this trap.
• Empty regular fridge (50 Sinner`s Souls) — Spawn one empty refrigerator.
• Trembling hands (50 Sinner`s Souls) — +180% recoil from firing any weapon in the active area of this trap.
• Shivering hands (50 Sinner`s Souls) — +300% recoil from firing any weapon in the active area of this trap.
• Raise zombie (100 Sinner`s Souls) — Spawn one zombie when someone gets close to this trap, works only once.
• Weakness (100 Sinner`s Souls) — -20% maximum health while in the active area of this trap.
• Grim weakness (100 Sinner`s Souls) — -50% maximum health while in the active area of this trap.
• Frag grenade (100 Sinner`s Souls) — Spawn a frag grenade with a 3 second timer when someone gets close to this trap, works only once.
• Smoke grenade (100 Sinner`s Souls) — Spawn a smoke grenade when someone gets close to this trap, works only once.

• Fountain of life (160 Sinner`s Souls) — Slowly regenerate health while in the active area of the Symbol. The Symbol will last only for 40 seconds.
• River of life (200 Sinner`s Souls) — Rapidly regenerate health while in the active area of the Symbol. The Symbol will last for only 40 seconds. Doesn`t work outside of the zone.

The ritual is a special mystical action that affects all players in the game session. In the research tree they will be represented with two variants: “Normal" and "Catalyzed". The last one needs half the number of souls.

• Fast run (200 or 100 Sinner`s Souls) — Sprint speed +200% for everyone in the battle for the next 60 seconds.
• Brown note (400 or 200 Sinner`s Souls) — Starts brown note that lasts for the next 30 seconds.
• Moon gravity (400 or 200 Sinner`s Souls) — Lowers gravity by 10 for 60 seconds.
• Elephant skin (400 or 200 Sinner`s Souls) — +300% health for everyone, but no one can jump or sprint for 60 seconds.
• Steady hands (400 or 200 Sinner`s Souls) — Everyone in battle gets -90% recoil from firing any weapon for the next 60 seconds.
• Trembling hands (400 or 200 Sinner`s Souls) — Everyone in battle gets +300% recoil from firing any weapon for the next 60 seconds.
• Fast reload (400 or 200 Sinner`s Souls) — Everyone in battle gains super fast reload speed for the next 60 seconds.

And remember, only one ritual can be activated at any time in a battle and it cannot be cancelled.

With a little bit of mysticism, Cuisine Royale’s “Wild West” will turn into "Weird West" very soon on the 31st of May. What will the update of the current season bring us?

New sprays will replace the old ones: all sprays will be replaced by unique seal sprays on the research tree in the Workshop.

The “Wild West story book” has turned into the “Weird West story book” it also hasn't disappeared from anything if you already have one and any Royal Bucks that you have earned throughout the season will stay with you and you can spend them to open the new sigils in the Workshop. Note also that when opening items in the research trees you need only the previous item, so that any new sprays will not block the opening of items at the end of the research.


Spray symbols with mystical powers. 28 different seals will help to heal your ally, slow down the enemy, push or even launch the enemy into the air and even summon a sinister zombie. Earn “Sinner's Souls” in battle and use them for these and other spells.  We will tell you about each of them in our Facebook group.

Check out the video here!

— Are you planning to rework the damage mechanics?

Some types of weapons have two indicators (stopping power and penetration), and others do not. For example, AR rifles, all PP and M1 models are currently ineffective.

Yes, we plan to rebalance all the damage mechanics as soon as we get to the new damage model for the player model. Then we can get normal indicators for stopping and damaging force of projectiles, as well as the indicators of armor penetration and other things.

— What inspired you when you created such a cool map like Mexico (especially the jungle part)?

We were inspired mainly by the local Mexican Lacandon Jungle. But still it is a collective image of several tropical zones (like The Amazon rainforest)

— Is it possible to add vehicles like motorcycles or armored vehicles?

Possibly armored vehicles and way less possible for motorcycles, as we don’t want to spend our time on development of theirs physics.

— A long time ago, Alexander talked about the system of replays, which can be used in CR. Will it be possible to add a similar system for ordinary players to create good videos and screenshots?

It is difficult to say, because in this case, we will not only have to significantly expand the interface in the replay system, but also to support it. In any case, this will not happen before the final release.

— When will the 3rd season begin?

Not yet, we’re working on fixing stuff, so season 3 will be closer/with the release of the game.

— Are there plans to improve the “movement” of the players?

We plan to improve player movement in terms of animations: adding jumping/falling animations, adding more natural movement animations. But we also going to work on more vaulting techniques, like vaulting through small windows (attic windows for instance) and some improvements for crawling too.

— Will there be a separate mode with a first person view?

It isn’t planned yet.

— Will there be a separate custom shooting range released in the game? For example before battle where you can test all the weapons movements etc.

We are considering such as an opportunity but there are no concrete plans to implement such feature at the moment.

— Will it be any possibility to send the bug reports from the in-game interface?

Not planned yet.

— Will the vehicles cause any damage to the players?

We have plans to implement this feature in one of the upcoming updates.

— Will it be possible to run private server?

At the moment we do not currently have plans for this.

— Will be new modules (like speed kneecaps, bouncing slippers, Cuban cigars, etc.) added to the game?

We will add new “perks” for sure to the game just in case to diversify the gameplay. Follow the news on our main page and on our social media sources.

— Which weapons do you plan to add to the game?

In one of the closest updates we plan to add a bazooka. Then we plan to add the Lee Enfield and will explore the possibility of implementing other types of weapons in the game: such as flamethrowers, mortars.

— Will jetpack return into the game? Used in the april fools event.

Probably, yes, but a little bit reworked.

— Will there be changes to the bags so that they do not override the view (for example in sniper view)?

First of all, we want to fix the bug when, for example, bags or spoons were unwound and interfered with the view whilst moving quickly.

— Will weapons ever be modified (not just sights, such as silencers)?

The weapons of WWII were never largely modified, but we want to give the possibility to do some changes in the future as soon as we are done with more pressing problems.

— Can you talk more about the new location “Mexico”?

Mexico is twice the size of Normandy in its playable area, it has a little more loot due to this and it is a different kind of terrain: desert, jungle, ruins, city, fortress, mountains. We are planning to release Mexico on the PC together with the game's release this year, so let's hope we can do it this summer. Please notice that the map "Mexico" was available to xbox players only for a limited time.

— Is it possible to introduce different weather conditions?

Yes, we want to add rain and fog to the game.

— Is the rebalance of the frying pan expected?

Yes, we are going to change the behavior a little bit so its doesn't have to be such an unambiguous factor in winning.

— Will there be an opportunity to resurrect the teammate?

So far, we plan to allow this only with the use of special items.

— Will the possibility to view the replays be implemented?

At the moment we didn't plan to release such feature, at least not before the game's release.

— Will the shooting (recoil, scatter, damage) be improved in the future?

Yes, it will be for sure. We are working on it.

Thank you for your questions!
