The Final Countdown
We are less than 24 hours away from the launch of the Wild Hoard update, which not only kicks off the seventh year of Paladins but also brings with it major changes to the Item Shop, overhauled features like Trials of the Realm 2.0, but also a return to a familiar and cozy fantasy theme. Catch up on the patch notes here, now with all the changes we've made since PTS added.
We're so excited for players to get their hands on this update. We haven't kicked off a year without a new Champion in a long time (arguably ever), but we felt strongly that the changes we focused on in this release make the day-to-day Paladins experience more enjoyable for every player. We'll be intently listening to feedback once it's live & reacting to any issues, a huge thanks to everyone who played on PTS!
This Week's Community Creations
This fanart feature marks the last before a new Title is added to the game: Featured Fanartist. Moving forward, I'll be reaching out to the artists featured & offering them an in-game title for their efforts! In order to keep things fair, anyone already featured in the 2024 will receive this in the coming weeks, and no worries if you happened before or missed out; I'll be focusing on new entrants as much as I can!
Without further ado, let's dig in!

Weekend LTM: Beyond
After 2 years on ice & a polarizing legacy, Beyond returns in a new light, with an updated Item Shop selection that is faster to read & progress through. The Schism 2 Cart also joins to offer players a chaotic and unique experience compared to the Siege this mode breaks off from. Enjoy some unexpected strategies and diverse gameplay opportunities as the mode returns this weekend!
Enjoy the Wild Hoard & provide feedback when the form goes live later this week!
