New Legend & Weapon: Tezca Enters the Ring With His Battle Boots! – Patch 7.02

¡El Jaguar Pone Las Reglaaaasss! Introducing Tezca, the Luchador, a master showman who revels in the Tournament. From wrestling in packed arenas all over the world by day, to vigilante hero by night. Tezca uses the supernatural powers from his connection to The Jaguar Mask to fight evil forces who would oppress his people, and his enemies in the ring. He is the 57th new Legend to permanently join the roster.

Tezca enters the Grand Tournament with his Clawhold Gauntlets and introduces a new Weapon: Battle Boots! A high mobility Weapon for stringing together multiple attacks, Battle Boots also utilize Active Inputs to control your Legend’s position after striking your opponent. 

The holly jolliest time of the year is upon us! Brawlhallidays 2022 begins next Wednesday, December 21st. Also, get ready to begin a new quest for Glory when Ranked Season 27 starts on January 11th.

And that’s just the beginning. Patch 7.02 also introduces an early preview of the new Challenges feature, end of match fanfare, new achievements, bug fixes, game improvements & more!

This patch introduces a first look at our new Challenges system, which players of all levels can use to improve their understanding of Brawlhalla’s mechanics and polish their skills. 

This is just a small preview of what it might look like, with a sampling of challenges across a wide range of skill levels.

Our goal with showing the very early state of this feature is to hear from you about what you’d like to see in the completed version when it arrives sometime next year. What kinds of challenges are most important to include? What would help practice be more rewarding and fun? We look forward to your feedback.

The Challenges preview can be found in the Offline Play menu underneath the Tutorials button.
