It’s time to get down to brass tacks, because the Blaston Reloaded Update is finally here! Version 1.15 brings the long awaited first batch of weapon attachments to the game, a new seasonal mode “Street Brawl”, and our first collaboration weapon item “The Cyber Bow”.

And that’s not all, we’ve continued to work on quality of life features for the game as well, along with some new rewards and legendary skins for weapons and avatars! This is probably our biggest update to date, so gear up, get ready, and load into Blaston Reloaded!

New Weapon Feature
Weapon Attachments

We’ve now added weapon attachments to the game. We’re starting with 10 weapons to make sure that we maintain the balance of the overall weapons in the game. In the first batch we’re including 3 attachments to the following weapons: Raptor, Nova, Wildcat, Hammer, Viper, Lance, Hammer Nade, FrostByte, Hurricane and Luma.

Attachments are unlocked by the new mastery system, select a weapon in the loadout and press “track” to begin the mastery. Complete the missions to unlock the attachments one by one, then equip them to change the behavior of the weapon!

New Seasonal Game Mode
Street Brawl

It’s time to take things to the streets, the Scrappers’ Street to be more specific! In the new seasonal game mode, duelists play in long distance duels using The Cyber Bow and a modified Nova to take each other down. Who’s the best dodger and marksman? Settle the score with a Street Brawl!

New Weapon
Luma

Introducing the first two-handed weapon to the world of Blaston is the Luma! This is a sharpshooter bow and arrow where duelists will have to give up an extra hand for some extreme damage output!

The Blaston Spectator will be available for free on Steam on May 5th

Soon after this update, we’re releasing the Blaston Spectator on Steam for free! This is a separate version of Blaston where you can spectate matches on a PC. This is mainly built for content creators and tournament organizers, but anyone can try it out and watch their matches from new camera angles including third person and first person views!

New Weapon Skins
The Karnivore, The Mallet & The Cyber Bow

Take charge with the new legendary versions of the Hammer Ellipse and Raptor Ellipse. The Mallet replaces the Hammer Ellipse and represents a darker more feared version, as it dons the b0yk0t logo on the side. Joining it is the Karnivore, which like the Deadringer, represents a look reminding players of the past worlds of Blaston. Both of them are now available in the store for all players.

The collaboration item skin for the Luma, from Apex Construct, The Cyber Bow is now here in Blaston. It’s unknown how the item first appeared in the world of Blaston, it’s assumed a glitch in the system may have brought it forth from another virtual world. Try it out in the Street Brawl seasonal mode, and get it for free in the store within the release week of the Blaston Reloaded Update.

New Legendary Avatar Skin
Bunny Hax

The hologram face upgrade is no longer unique to Shoxx! The newest skin for Hax, Bunny Hax, gives the avatar this feature as well along with some very tall bunny ears.

New Cosmetics
Blaston VR Master League Platform & Banner

We have partnered up with VR Master League (VRML) to bring you the first official esports league of Blaston, built together with the community. Get the VRML banners in the store, or get them by signing up to Blaston VRML Season 1.

New Arena
Scrappers’ Street

Some fights are just not meant to be displayed in fancy arenas, some fights you settle in the streets. Now you’re able to challenge others in the Scrappers’ Street arena by purchasing it in the store!

Graphical Improvements

We’ve taken some time to look into the performance and visuals of the game, and it has paid off! You’ll notice that the locker room in the main menu has been cleaned up, but we’ve also made sure to optimize the textures of the game, along with making improvements to banners. We’ve also changed filtering settings for the game which will make it look a bit clearer. For players on Quest devices, we’ve also made some improvements in the passthrough mode by adding particles and fixing some color issues.

Community Request #1
Ping Indicator

We’ve heard the calls from the community, you want to get a better understanding of the quality of the matches. We’ve responded to this by introducing a ping indicator to the match interface to allow players to identify the quality and stability of their connection to the match. Our hope is that this will give players an idea if they need to improve things on their end, and also for tournament organizers to more properly host competitive events.

Community Request #2
Wait for an opponent

Many players have told us that they would like to still be able to access the main menu and loadout while waiting for a match. Now players are able to do so by going into the duel settings, and select “Wait for an opponent”. Enabling this option allows players to check their loadout and practice combos on the dummy bot before heading into a match.
