Up Next: Spring Training!

The season presses on just as much as it comes to an end, and the ring keeps shifting. Patch 8.3 steps in with a focused set of balance updates, refinements, and quality-of-life improvements to keep the fight feeling sharp as momentum builds.

This update also introduces two new variants inspired by the same, but different...supernatural chaos. Together, these variants channel a strange, otherworldly energy where speed never stops and fortune favors the bold. If things feel a little unhinged, a little paranormal, or even a little alien, that’s part of the fun. Strap in and let Lucky Lure Umbrella and Grand Mother Double run wild.

And finally, as any legend knows, the biggest moments don’t start under the lights. They start with having a little bit of ego, and also having a lot of bit of ego. So pull up your most badass chair, and check out the video below!

Quality of Life Changes

Viewing Parlor Beta: One of the improvements we’re targeting for improvements is the Viewing Parlor. We respect our F2P players and want to provide ways to also earn rewards that aid in our ability to support continued development. Skullgirls Mobile has been and will always be Opt-in Ads only. And we are aiming to provide better value for those that choose to watch Ads for rewards. In this patch, the Viewing Parlor has been serviced with a new external ad network which will update the experience over time. The rewards have also been adjusted to better reward players.

New Viewing Parlor Rewards:
The Viewing Parlor rewards will alternate between a 1-Hour XP Boost and a roll on the following loot table:

Backstage Pass+:
The Backstage Pass+ has been updated to remove the ending x3 monthly relics and replaced with a second copy of the new gold variant. We believe this change adds further value to players looking to quickly build prestige.

Character Prize Fights:

Starting this month, each time a character’s Prize Fight comes along, it will feature a different Gold Variant as a reward for reaching the end of the Gold and Diamond prize fights. This change is meant to bring a bit more variety in the prizes each time they return.

Bug Fixes:

Undying Event

Resolved an exploit where temporarily disconnecting from the internet before the end of an Undying Boss fight allowed Bleed and other Damage-over-Time effects to continue contributing to damage beyond the fight timer.

Updated Terms and Conditions Pop-Up

There is a known issue where non-English translation values were not updated for the initial update. This will be corrected shortly. The new conditions are a requirement update for players in the LATAM region that we now require for all players. Due to new regulatory rules and to respect data privacy, this is a necessary change that you will see across many games including Skullgirls Mobile. Here is a translation for those who do not have an English build.

We’re thrilled to share this new story with you and look forward to seeing how the community experiences what’s been in the works for some time now.

With spring on the horizon, a season of renewal for many, we’re also taking the opportunity to do some spring cleaning of our own. That means some of our most extensive infrastructure upgrades to date. This will be a continuation of modernizing key systems to better support future improvements, additions, and the continued growth of Skullgirls Mobile. Thank you again for your support and love for the universe as these legends continue to grow!
