Winter holidays are not just about gifts, Christmas songs, lights, and vacations. They are also about reminiscing on the lessons learned and lessons life can still teach us depending on the route we choose to take. Of course, this part of the holidays is not essential to the spirit of the season, and we can do the reminiscing thing any time of the year at will. But there is something especially powerful and touching about realizing that, this time of year, we are all in this together. So let’s take a step back and take a minute to recall this passing year.

We implemented several improvements and released new Bosses in the Doom Tower (and we are proud of what we did in terms of this game mode). We released a lot of QoL features (Champion Tags, Presets, Fitting Room, Super Raids, and a lot more), the ideas for most of which we gathered from you, our players. Another big achievement is Clans development. We are well aware that the Clan system and related activities still require our attention, but we did manage to bring them to a whole new level this year and make a great start in developing the social aspect of the game. We released the long-awaited duplicate system, and it was a significant milestone in the game’s growth. And, of course, our magnificent beast. It took us a ton of effort to accomplish this feature. We are planning to do a lot more for the Hydra in the coming year because this tough baby deserves as much caring and attention as we can provide.

We wouldn’t forget about the two big and exciting collaborations we did this year. Ninja and S1mple have become a great addition to the game, and we are thrilled about what’s coming next. 

In 2021, we released 12 fully-fledged new versions of the game and several additional updates. That’s a pretty fast pace we have taken on, but we do like this drive and would like to keep it.

So what about the next page? 

In 2022, we want to make the PvP part of the game more interesting and engaging. Throughout the year, you will be receiving even more options to make your existing and new champions tougher, smarter, and even cuter. We also think that the events and tournaments part is something we should keep improving. While our focus will remain on releasing new content, we will also work hard on developing what’s already in the game so new QoL improvements and champions rebalances are surely on the horizon.

Last but definitely not least, a humongous amount of work has been done on our community platforms - dozens of contests, hundreds of posts, some great educational and entertaining videos we are very proud of. We are immensely thankful to our team of moderators who have been with us through thick and thin and still remain our most loyal helpers. We want to express our gratitude to all the content creators who do such a great job at supporting the Raid community and being mouthpieces for the game. We don’t cease to be amazed by the passion and unity of our players. To know that you care is to have confidence in the need to move forward and become better. Thank you for being our players. And we promise not to forget that with great love comes great responsibility. 

That’s all, folks. This is the last Raid Digest this year. We will return to you with more of “What Raid Team are working on and What we have in store.” on January 14, 2022. Thank you for sticking with us through thick and thin.  And special thanks to everyone who read this far
