This is the technical changelog for this update. Be sure to check out our blog post for more information!

Speed Builders LTM

Introducing Speed Builders, a brand new limited-time mode!

In this fast-paced building showdown, you’ll race against other players to recreate builds as quickly and accurately as possible.

You'll earn points for every correctly placed block, but be careful… the player with the fewest correctly placed blocks will be eliminated at the end of each round. The last player standing wins!
