Changes
What's changed in Grid Royale with each update.
Added
2 changes-
Battle emotes: throw one of 6 animated emojis at your opponent during ranked 1v1 matches (5-second cooldown)
-
Win-streak bonus: win 3 ranked matches in a row to earn a one-time Freeze bonus that stops your own clock for 5 seconds — collect it as an emblem above the board, then use it in any later match
Improved
2 changes-
The bot no longer plays the same pattern every game — it picks randomly among equally good moves instead of always the same one
-
The bot now speeds up to match your pace if you start playing faster, instead of always thinking at a fixed speed
Fixed
2 changes-
Matchmaking no longer pairs you with an opponent whose trophy count is wildly different — search range is now capped, so matches won't break right after they start
-
The match arena is now chosen based on whichever player has fewer trophies, so you won't get dropped into an arena you haven't unlocked yet
Known Issues
1 change-
Emote bubbles and the win-streak bonus emblem/freeze icon haven't been verified in a live two-player session yet — minor visual polish may follow
