Hello Pilots,
We are excited to bring you our latest update which brings you our Tournaments feature that will allow you to see how you stack up in bracket style competition against other pilots.
The Tournaments feature, which will be operated by DRL hosts, is the culmination of a lot of hard work and we hope that you find this style of competition fun and engaging. You will see this feature used across a number of our online broadcasts going forward.
This update also includes a number of performance improvements, a new camera noise feature in-game, and 16 new colors that you can apply to objects in the Map Editor. Lastly, the update includes a number of bug fixes that are detailed in the release notes below.
