Many people were suspicious when we announced that we were holding a Rivals Direct on April 1st. They thought surely we were setting them up. Surely it would be some elaborate prank, or maybe there wouldn’t even be a Direct. Well the joke’s on them, because there totally was a Direct. And even though it was 66% an elaborate prank, we did eventually reveal a brand new character – Elliana, The Aerial Arsenal – releasing tomorrow for PC alongside Sylvanos.
If you missed the Rivals Direct when it was live, you can still catch up on the fun with the VoD from our YouTube channel.
If you’d like to skip right to the character reveal, you can see that below. Sylvanos and Elliana will be available April 2nd, 2018 at 10AM PDT on Steam.
SANDBERT
We also teased Sandbert as our newest character today, and have delivered by making them playable on our special April Fools’ branch. To access this navigate to your library in Steam, right click on Rivals, and head to the ‘Betas’ tab. From the dropdown menu there simply choose ‘April Fools’ to unlock a build that has Sandbert.
