Walnut Creek, Calif. (Dec. 12, 2023) – Winter has come to Super Animal Royale and the Dragon’s Loot Update is upon us, announced Maximum Entertainment and Pixile Studios today. Six ferocious breeds of Super Dragon are ready to wreak havoc and claim their spot at the top of the food chain. Meanwhile, Super Animal World is ready to celebrate CRISPRmas beginning with the gift of a Super Icicle Deer. Come along, squire, as we continue to explore the contents of the season: https://youtu.be/eDXbtAQfl1s
Super Animal Royale’s more than 10 million players can LARP their way to victory with this new major update:
The Dragon’s Loot Pass is a treasure trove of fantasy-themed cosmetics to earn, including sets like the Wizard and Ranger outfits, Penguin Palace Photo Booth scene, Coconut Canter emote and, of course, the adorable Mini Horse pet. Just… don’t try to ride it into battle.
The Super Dragons arriveth to the fight and they hath brought guns. The long-awaited Super Dragon has been released to the Research Lab, with six distinct breeds including the Super Dragon, Super Orange Dragon, Super Forest Dragon, Super Superite Dragon, Super Ice Wyvern and Super Black Wyvern.
This season’s Starter Pack features the Super Fairy Skullcat, Fairy Armor, Fairy Sword melee weapon and 600 SAW Tickets.
To celebrate Super Animal Royale’s Early Access release half a decade ago, the coupon code “BIRTHDAY” gifts players the Pixile Anniversary Firework melee, Pixile Umbrella, Party Beads and Fifth Anniversary Cake Gravestone cosmetics. The new Piñata Donkey breed has also been added to the Research Lab to celebrate.
The jolliest, most genetically modified time of year is here: CRISPRmas. This year, the event will take place over the course of three weeks, with each week unlocking new challenges and rewards to complete, just like Howloween. The event features a total of three festive new Super Animal breeds, nine new cosmetic items to earn and 20 Legacy items to unlock with the Super Edition DLC. Snowmen have been built around Thomas’ Tundra that you can smash, too.
Several improvements to the game’s UI and player experience have been made, such as backend dynamic loading for item menus to speed up load times. Players can now find hamster balls and Giant Emus to ride around the pregame lobby, and bugs have been squashed.
Super Animal Royale is a free-to-play top-down multiplayer battle royale for up to 64 players. Players select their favorite Super Animal from a menu of foxes, pandas, kitty cats and other bloodthirsty beasts before the match begins. Then, players parachute into the ruins of an ill-fated safari park and battle to the death, in a lethal barrage of bullets, explosives and hamster balls.
Cut tall grass and loot abandoned structures in search of the guns, Super Powerups and health juice you’ll need to survive, and watch out for the poisonous Skunk Gas, slowly seeping in from the edges of the map. Super Animal Royale features carefully balanced run-and-gun gameplay combined with an intuitive fog of war system that restricts a player’s view to line of sight, allowing for sneaky, strategic play. Whether predator or prey, only one animal can reach the top of the food chain, and with guns in their paws, it's anyone's guess which one it'll be.
