The newest Legend is ready to rock out in the Grand Tournament! Munin, the Raven, storms the arena with her Six String Scythe and Lethal Lute Bow. Munin’s release also comes with three new Skins, including Hugin, her sister and bandmate, all purchasable in Mallhalla.

We’ve also added two new features in this update – Emojis and an Invite to Lobby system. Players can use Emojis to help communicate between one another on all platforms after or between matches, on the Scoreboard screen, and Lobby, while for the Invite to Lobby system, players can invite their opponents from their matchmade game to a separate lobby!

For those looking forward to a little fright, our Brawlhalloween event will start October 27th. And for those who want to prepare for the biggest gala, the Brawlhalla Anniversary event will begin November 10th.

Additionally, we made some game improvements, bug fixes,updated the Legend Rotation, and much more. Tune in this weekend for the final showdown as our Australia, South America, and North America regions battle it out in the Autumn Championship 2021!

• Munin – “The Raven”
• Weapons: Scythe, Bow
• Stats: 5 Strength, 6 Dexterity, 4 Defense, 7 Speed
• “She had merged her music into her fighting style to create a fearsome, versatile martial art.”

Munin enters with 3 new Skins:

• Magpie Munin – “Anyone seen Thor’s favorite pinky ring?”
• Hugin – “Munin brings the rock and Hugin brings the roll.”
  • Hugin has custom lock-in animations and announcer VO!
• DJ Hugin – “The master duck jockey throws the best raves in town.”

In this update we’ve introduced a new Emojis system so players can communicate on all platforms! Players can use Emojis to communicate after or between matches on the Scoreboard screen and in the Lobby. There are 15 Emojis featuring different Legends with unique expressions and emotions.

• Players now can express themselves on all platforms!
• The default bindings to use an Emoji are: “]”on keyboard and “RB” on controller. There is a small cooldown timer after consistently using an Emoji.
• Saying “GG” after a match will automatically activate the “GG” Emoji for an easy shortcut.
• If a player is muted, their Emojis are hidden from the player that muted them.
• Since post-game chat was a feature only available on the Steam client and did not exist between platforms, it has been replaced by the Emoji system. It is still available in character select, mid-match for spectators, custom lobbies, matchmaking lobbies, and the main menu for clans on PC and Mac.
• There are now options for PC and Mac players to customize their chat visibility between all, friends+clanmates, or no chat.

Looking for your next Ranked 2v2 partner or want to spar against the last opponent you played? Players can now invite other players they just brawled with or against from matchmade games to a lobby! 

• This can be done from the Scoreboard screen either from the Inspect menu or the Lobby menu in the top-right hub.
• Players select what type of lobby to invite other brawlers to, but the type of lobby will not change until the invited player joins.
• A notification will appear if the invited player accepts the invitation. Players can accept the invitation from their notifications in the Lobby menu or Main Menu.
• Players can also invite their opponent even if they are not on their friends list.

We are continuing to add additional security measures to online play. During the month of October we will be testing Easy Anti-Cheat integration. Once enabled, ranked queues and tournament lobbies will use this system.

On Windows, this requires a 64-bit operating system. Nearly all PC players are already running compatible versions of Windows. Very old versions of Windows (such as Vista and XP) may not support EAC. If you are one of the few whose computer does not meet the requirements, or you disable EAC, all other game modes are still available.

Walk the line between myths and truth like Lara Croft! Pick a teammate and survive the treacherous climb through this 3 minute, 2v2 match. Beware! The temple is filled with traps, so make your own luck by activating the pressure plates to turn them on the opposing team. The team with the highest score wins!

• Climb Game Mode
• 2v2 Teams
• Climb the map as you battle your opponents!
• Beware: pressure plates activate traps.
• Score the most points for your team to win!
