- SEASON 3 BEGINS! There is a new Season 3 BATTLEPASS now available!
- New Character: The Day is Saved! The Powerpuff Girls fly into the Multiverse to smack down some baddies and save Townsville. They are available as part of the Premium Season 3 BATTLEPASS.



- Gems can now be leveled up to level 20 instead of level 10, but total maximum XP and maximum strength are unchanged. Current gems will scale to their new level based on their current XP, and level 10 gems will scale to level 20 gems with the start of Season 3.
- Rift difficulties are now unlocked based on total gem XP rather than the average level of the player's top 3 gems.
- Updated several level actors to support controller rumble feedback

- If you have a character in Diamond / Master, other characters will be adjusted to Silver V / Gold V on their first game respectively
- Fixed a bug causing RP calculation to read inaccurate skill ratings
- Defeating players of a higher tier than you now has a higher minimum RP gain before MMR is accounted for
- Losing to players of a higher tier than you now has a lower maximum RP loss
- Base progression in lower tiers has been toned down a bit as there are now multiple mechanisms to accelerate high skill and experienced players
- Matchmaking favors games with players within a single tier, but may still fallback to two tiers
- Pre-made groups are assigned their MMR by the strongest player for both placement and RP calculations
- Raised the target MMR for Master
- Master I players will decay RP for inactivity
- We now use OpenSkill to calculate MMR instead of a customized version of Glicko for matchmaking. This should result in new and returning players getting more appropriate games.
