Greetings witches and wizards!
It's time for our Arena 2025 Season 2 Releases!
Arena Maps: We are continuing to make edits to all of our existing maps: Flying, Dueling and Seasonal as well as making QoL improvements to them.
We have a new Dueling Arena we're excited to release:
NEW - Salem Arena
We will also have a new Dueling Halls Arena ready soon, so keep your eyes peeled!
Additionally, we have worked on reimplementing some of our Rafting and Flying maps to reduce lag, as they were originally implemented at high coordinates.
These maps include:
- Phoenix Nest Rafting
- Candyland Rafting
- Under the Sea Rafting
- Winter Flying Course
We appreciate your patience with us as we continue to work on making our maps more up-to-date. Additionally, new maps we have in the works currently will be released in the future!
NEW Progression System
- Please note this will not be accessible until 3pm PST on April 1st. Additionally, the next world reset.
Welcome to our newest addition: The Progression System!
Players must first complete a mini-quest to introduce themselves to the Progression System, which can be found within the Dueling Halls. Once the quest is complete, you have unlocked the Progression System! You'll be able to earn tons of rewards throughout each season.
The way this will work is:
Players will need to attend X amount of Arena activities throughout the season to unlock each reward. The more you attend Arena activities, the more rewards you will unlock.
These include:
- Arena Tokens
- House Points
- Experience Packages
- Seasonal Collectables
- Seasonal Fireworks
- A special Prefix
This system also includes Arena Missions, which can be completed during Challenges and Tournaments to earn additional rewards.
The Progression System will reset at the beginning of every new season, so make sure to claim your rewards before the season ends!
We hope you all enjoy this new content addition!
NEW Notification Ping
We have recently added a new notification ping on the main discord to notify when Challenges, Tournaments and Training Sessions are being held. This new role is called Arena Events! Make sure to add the role so you do not miss any Arena related events.
Arena Token Shop Update: We have rotated the shop once again with items we haven't seen since last season 2 and 3.
Alongside this, we have also added some new items to the shop:
NEW - Choco Hop Card collection
NEW - Spring-themed house banners
We're continuing to work on new items for the shop, which will be sure to hit the shop in a future release!
QoL Updates: The team has been working hard behind the scenes to provide new and fun updates!
These new QoL updates include;
- Added missing barriers to our Land Before Time course hoops that were missing them
- Fixed a regions issue on our Dojo Arena that was showing incorrect players in training sessions
- Fixed warps for both Dwelling and RoH Arenas in training sessions
- Filled in the Dragons wing on Dragon's Enclosure course so there is no longer a hole
- Added a QoL update for us to edit messages sent from the discord bot
- Fixed our Dueling Warmup Node down so that it is no longer floating in mid-air
- Lowered the swap timer on the training mobs from 10 seconds to 5 seconds in the Training Rooms
- We have continued to work on fixing any missing or overused barriers on our maps to ensure a smoother run through
- Fixed some of our Dueling Hall warps and NPCs so that they are centred
The team is currently working on a new, revamped version of the Arena Halls. However, this will drop in a future release. We cannot wait for you to see it!
The team are always looking at new ways to improve the QoL experience for everyone and will continue to do so!
Arena Discord: We're continuing to explore ideas and suggestions that we could bring to the Arena Discord. Additionally, we post a community-update post each month to share what we have been working on.

What can I look forward to in the future?:
We are continuing to work on our current projects and QoL improvements we have in the works. Currently, projects have slowed down due to the teams IRL schedules, members of the team going on hiatus, and members leaving. We hope to be able to announce new additions to our game modes and content in a future release.
Additionally, the team is a lot smaller than what it used to be, which means less manpower to work on completing our projects at a faster pace. If you want to be a part of brainstorming and creating these projects, we recommend that you apply for Arena Squire to help!

And finally, we'd like to credit you guys! This update wouldn't have been possible without all your feedback. We hope you enjoy this release, and we're looking forward to seeing you at our future Challenges and Tournaments!
