The developers of Battle of Guardians, a multichain fighting game, have announced the launch of various new updates this month, now officially live for the free-to-play blockchain title.

The team is closing this month off with the release of new characters to use in battle alongside various improvements in order to provide an enjoyable and accessible experience. With the latest updates, a new reconnection scheme has been added, introducing two types of reconnection that aim to minimize the amount of times players have to re-login to reconnect back to the game. One type of reconnection activates during a non-gameplay screen, while the other is when you’re in the heat of action-packed gameplay. Basically, the game will now auto-retry reconnecting 5 times, and if it fails to successfully reconnect, then you’ll have to re-login yourself. By having the game automatically retry a couple of times, players no longer have to re-login themselves right from the get go, but can now let the game do the work and hope that most of the time it does manage to actually reconnect.

With this latest version, you’ll no longer have to redownload the entire game for every update anymore, thanks to the new launcher update that allows you to easily get the newest version without needing to download the whole game again.

Controller players can now use the new virtual keyboard to type whenever needed should they wish to, making the game more accessible with this new alternative option for those who don’t want to have to always reach over to their actual keyboard when playing on their controller.

When it comes to characters, 5 Common characters have been upgraded with their own Rare and Ultra Rare skins, giving players new options to choose from. The splash screen has also been updated with the addition of the game’s 2 main characters, KingA and Nix.

Battle of Guardians was officially listed on Steam back in February this year.
