We read through all the suggestions and we are happy to tell you that we implemented a bunch of them.

So let's not make it any longer and go straight to a full list of fixes and new features, since that's what you all are interested in!

Changelog

🌏 New! A brand new lobby
With this update we decided it was about time to spice up the lobby. Within this lobby you will find a new parkour waiting for you to be completed. This new lobby will have place for the newly implemented leaderboard as well.

🏛️ New! Maps for both modes
Due to negative feedback on the solo maps we decided to remove all the current exsiting solo maps and make them in-line with the current maps used at the doubles mode. On top of that we added a total of 5 new maps for you to play on.

The 5 new maps are:

Jungle
Lighthouse
Sealife
Mines
Rebirch

Current Map rotation:

Colors
Desert
Mesa
Tower
Dunes
Undersea
Winter
Mines
Jungle
Lighthouse
Sealife
Rebirch
✨ Updated! Abilities
We took the time to fix and update some abilities, as well as adding a brand new ability.


New! Paladin Ability:
A chance to receive regeneration after a kill. The higher the level the longer the regeneration.
New! Donator Discount
Everyone with an Elite rank will receive a 10% discount on the price of abilities, and everyone with a Titan rank will have a 20% discount.
⚔️ Updated! Kits
Along with abilities, kits got a small change as well. Some include a nerf, some include a buff. The following kits have been changed:


VIP KitNerfed
Elite KitNerfed
Titan KitNerfed
Flameshot KitBuffed
Bunny KitBuffed
Bonk KitNew

We decided it was time to reduce the impact of the current donator kits, which is why they have been adjusted slightly to give it a more fair gameplay. Even with these kit nerfs we still believe in you, you can get that victory!

📚 New! Kit Editor
With all of these changes to the kits it was about time for us to give you a frequently requested feature; The Kit Editor. You can now edit the slots of items in your kit inside the SkyWars lobby. Simply shift click on a kit you own in the Kits Menu to start the edit.
Note: The upper bar in the edit inventory is your hotbar


🧰 Updated! Item Changes
Some small adjustments have been made to the content of the SkyWars chest items. The following changes have been made:


Armor in DoublesWe doubled the amount of armor in chests in doubles mode
Knockback 1 Gold SwordWe fully removed this item from chests, and it has been moved to the Bonk kit.
Player TrackerCan now spawn in middle chests, and will be given with 2 players left.

📝 Updated! Statistics
Quite some issues have been fixed within this update. And we added a brand new statistic to flex on your friends even more; Highest Reached Winstreak.


New! Highest Reached Winstreak
This statistic will apply upon having a change in your winstreak. This statistic will keep track of your highest reached winstreak of each mode. A new leaderboard has been added in the lobbies as well. This leaderboard shows the highest reached winstreaks combined from solos & doubles mode.
Fix! Winstreak & Losses
Players used to type /leave in order to keep their winstreak and not have a loss added to their account, this however has now been fixed.
📋 Misc. Updates & Changes
Some smaller updates / fixes that should not be left unnoticed.

Fixed being kicked while falling out of starter box.​
Fixed being stuck in wheat blocks.​
Fixed dragon rider win effect​
Fixed guardian win effect​
Fixed signs dropping on maps​
Fixed nicknames having gray chat​
Added rank in ingame chats​
Fixed being able to buy kit upgrades multiple times​
Fixed being able to see spectators with /nick​
Fixed some typos​
... and much more!​

📬Questions & Anwsers

Will I lose anything?

No, this is an update, not a reset. Everything you previously owned will still be on your account.

I liked the nerf in the titan, elite and vip kits, but everything else was really bad, especially all the players voting and the new maps, they suck.

🗳️Updated! In game voting
We got the requests of allowing default players to have access to voting as well, and we decided we could do that. However with the recent nerfs of the donator kits we thought it would be in our best interest to make default players only having a vote every 2 hours. So choose wisely.
