An update for Murder Mystery is deploying to all regions. This second balancing patch includes various bug fixes and balancing changes based on community feedback.

New Feature: Map XP Boost

We’re trialling a new feature in Murder Mystery that chooses one random map per lobby to have a 10% XP boost. Look for the “10% XP Boost” tag on the map when using the map selector.

We’re hoping this feature encourages players to play a more diverse set of maps. If this trial is successful, we shall deploy this to further games.

Balancing Changes

Bux

• Slightly decreased the Bux spawn rate

• Unused Bux store items now refund 50% of their purchase cost on game end

Flash Camera

• Increased the price (4 → 6 Bux)

• Added a 10-second cooldown between uses

• Added a player setting to decrease the brightness of the camera’s flash

Player Sonar

• Can now be used up to 3 times, with a 3-second cooldown between uses

Challenges

• Vaulted the ‘Floodgates’ and ‘Lights Out’ daily challenges

• Modified the ‘Sole Survivor’ challenge to not require you to win the game, and improved the challenge’s description

• Modified the ‘Frequent Flyer’ challenge to count the use of unique teleporters in each game (instead of just one)

• Modified the ‘Pandora’s Box’ daily challenge to only require 1 chest/rune box opening

Other Changes

• Decreased the price of the picnic consumables on Sunny Acres (10 → 5 coins)

• Changed the colour of the magnifying glass item when held to silver, to match the dropped item

• Added a chat notification when picking up the magnifying glass, explaining how it can be used

• Re-enabled the Wildflower Murder Mystery cosmetic pack

• Introduced a new custom server option to enable/disable specific Bux Store items

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug that prevented players from being eliminated after using a Knockback Nemo to eliminate another Innocent player from the game

• Fixed a bug that caused progress for the ‘Sole Survivor’ challenge to not be counted, despite the criteria being met

• Fixed a bug where players with a custom zapper equipped would be given a second zapper if they picked up the Sheriff’s magnifying glass

• Fixed a bug that caused the player’s prestige icon to not be visible on the level indicator in game lobbies

• Fixed a bug where spectators could be stunned by the Flash Camera

Starting June 21st, head to the beach, cast your line, and reel in a FREE gift every other day until July 4th. Who knows what you'll catch!

Treasure seekers beware! Each crate won't stick around for long! You've only got 24 hours to reel in each one before it floats away for good.

Some treasure is too heavy to reel in with that Flimsy Rod of yours. But don’t worry, the All Access Pass has you covered! The All Access Pass grants you the upgraded Gift Grabber 9000, allowing you to reel in every piece of treasure, no matter how heavy the haul!

Missed a crate? No problem! All Access Pass lets you go back and grab any treasure you missed from previous days.

Free and paid gifts are revealed at the start of each eligible day (UTC timezone). No purchase is necessary to claim free gifts on their launch day. After Summer Daily ends, All Access Pass holders will automatically be granted any unclaimed unlocks.
