This past update welcomed new bot difficulties: Extreme and Chosen! These new and challenging bots function as a hybrid Test Feature and Live Feature that are intended to help a player improve their gameplay. Players can increase the bot’s difficulty in custom game lobbies to fight against the new bot logic, Extreme and Chosen. If Test Features is enabled, though, bots on the Easy, Medium, or Hard difficulties will utilize the new bot logic as well.

• With Test Features on, pre-existing bot difficulty settings such as “Easy”, “Medium”, and “Hard” use a new system that adds behaviors and makes them more aware of how their attacks and recovery options work.
• The new difficulty settings “Extreme” and “Chosen” use this logic regardless of whether Test Features are enabled.
• Pre-existing bot difficulties still use the old logic for the time being, but can be tried with the new logic by turning on Test Features.
• In addition to being more challenging, the new Extreme difficulty setting adds Dashes and Throws to gameplay, and the Chosen difficulty setting mixes in Gravity Cancels and Chase Dodges on top of that.
• Let us know your experience with the new bot logic and difficulties! More information can be found at brawlhalla.com/test-features.
