Quick Draw Update - 1.13
You can now play in the seasonal mode queue! The first seasonal mode we’re introducing is Quick Draw! Face off in the Greatstone Valley, far away from the city you know and love, and duel each other in old school fashion! Both players play using the Deadringer, a legendary skin for the Raptor which in this mode is sped up to replicate a more realistic cowboy duel! When the bell rings, the quickest one to draw and shoot your opponent will be deemed the victor!

- New Game Mode
- Quick Draw
- New Rewards
- Taylock & Deadringer
Finish the missions and collect the premium rewards that you get to try out in the Quick Draw mode! Play as the newest character Taylock, who represents the TrueTech faction along with the Legendary Raptor skin, the Deadringer.
- New Weapon
- Swarm
The Blaston arsenal keeps growing with the newly added Swarm weapon! This is the first weapon with multiple firing modes utilized by charging up the weapon when holding down the trigger. Set up for some flashy combos using this charged up blue hand cannon!
- Balance Update
We’ve made a complete overhaul of the weapons to promote more varied play at both high and low levels. Amongst the changes we’ve focused on the usage of “Drop Blocking”, where players drop weapons to block projectiles. This is a skillful mechanic which we intentionally designed. However, we’ve now seen the full strength of it, and in this update we’ve altered the HP of most weapons in regards to their cooldown and size to balance the use of this technique and for other uses.
