| Patch #7 - 1.202.000 | 2025-12-05 | Patch Information1.202.000Patch 7 Beta: December 5th, 2025Release Date: December 17th, 2025Hi everyone! This update brings major changes to player movement, and a new dribbling option in the form the Dribble Push Ball, with a short and a long variation.Additionally, we have tweaked the Battle Pass progression. XP needed per token has been reduced from 1750 to 800, and we have adjusted the tier costs accordingly. This should make unlocking rewards from the Battle Pass easier, and not as time-consuming. We are still working on more systems (such as "daily missions") to make BP progression more engaging. We hope to share more news on that front |
