While Olympia is absolutely the stand-out here, the 1.2.0 update also brought about a ton of other features and changes. For starters, Ranked Mode has gotten an overhaul. Now there’s a Ranked Shop and rewards. Additionally, there’ll be regular seasonal updates, and of course, season one has just started! Secondly, there’s a bunch of updates to the user interface. These include a revamped stage select screen and the return of the old playtest screen from the first Rivals of Aether’s lobbies. Next, there’s a new skin for the Rock Wall stage, which turns it into Crystal Oasis. Finally, there’s plenty of balance changes for the cast and bug fixes. We recommend checking out the full list of changes on the official patch notes here.
Author’s Note: Can't wait to play Olympia later today, really been looking forward to that. Also, I loved the old playtest feature in Rivals 1 that let you buttoncheck before each match, so seeing that return here is awesome. What do you think though? Please let us know in the comments below!
