Hey everyone! Here with an exciting release packed with QOL and tweaks. This brings an almost entire overhaul to level. Why did level 3 get an overhaul? To be frank we weren't proud of what the level was gameplay wise. We want every new level to be our best yet and Level 3 didn't meet those standards.
For those of you who have already played level 3, I highly recommend you play again! It feels like a new experience. For easy access, use the new "Return to the Hub" feature in the menu to travel to Level 3 through the hub.
As a side note for transparency, with this update comes a price raise to $9.99. Our last price raise was over 1 year ago and I think the game has come a long way to warrant the $2 uplift. Since release, we have generally done a $2 price raise every year. That being said, at $9.99, we will probably be staying here for a while! Thanks for supporting BET for so long :)
