The Factions Update is Here!
Welcome Bounty Hunters!
Are you hungry for more rewards? Keen to unlock more goodies? Well, if you do, we’ve got your back. Let us show you what’s coming in this Killsquad update.

The Faction and Reputation system is something that we’ve been working on internally for quite some time. We looked at your comments and feedback, and we decided to reduce the amount of exp required to go through the Reputation levels. We made it easier and faster for people to level up, making the whole experience feel less “grindy”. We also saw the things that you, the community, might want as rewards from this system, and we based our new rewards on your feedback.
In the last Ekaar update, we changed the Factions section, updating it visually and adding tons of lore of each faction for you to explore and get lost in our universe. With this update, we are adding the final touches: more and better rewards! Many of the rewards that were previously available have been updated, and new rewards added. There are 50 levels of Reputation to achieve, 3 badges, and 14 unique rewards per faction waiting for you to be unlocked, such as special perks, emotes, skins, and lots more.
Level up your Reputation level and collect unique rewards.
So, what are you waiting for Bounty Hunter? Let’s get that Legendary status!
Let us know in the comment section below all your thoughts about all the new changes to the Factions. We would love to know what you think.
If you are enjoying Killsquad and what we’re doing with it, leave a Steam review. They help us out a lot. And if you are looking for fellow Bounty Hunters for co-op shenanigans, visit the official Killsquad Discord.
Good luck Bounty Hunters and speak to you soon,
Your Novarama Team
