Patch Notes (06/02/2019) - Version 3.00.997

Hello, Metal Gladiators!

The Season 3 of the Metal Pass is here!

On this season, Metal Herald and the Sect of Metal will take over Heavy Metal Machines. Rampage and Little Monster have been converted and are working for the rulers, with brand new models. Killer J. is just mocking the Sect, after all, he is a clown!

New GPS

To improve everyone’s experience here’s a new feature. The GPS got revamped and bigger. It also changes color. Blue when your team has the bomb, orange when the opponent has it, white when the bomb is loosened around, and golden when you are carrying it. On the options menu, you can set opacity, size and turn on/off (which will automatically activate the older version of it). Take a look:
