TGIF! What happened this past week in Dev and Community? Player Bans October 11 - October 17 As a reminder, the following numbers are permanently frozen accounts, and don't count temporary freezes. FB: 133 KPs2: 4 KN: 20 The majority of permanently frozen accounts are frozen for being a shared or alternate account. This is something we actively investigate, and we appreciate players reporting suspicious accounts to us. If you have any questions or comments about a frozen account, please direct them through Support as the Forums are not the place to discuss account freezes, because of the sensitive account information involved. New Limited Items! A new week means new Limited Items! Here’s what’s up for grabs: New Battle Drops! We released some new Battle Drops to the game this past week. These drops are for levels 10,000+. New Crates! Want a shot a three new Legendary Items? Three new crates were released to the game this week! Weekend Calendar! The Halloween Weekend Calendar is on now! It runs until October 28 at 10:00 am PDT. New Location Coming Soon! Keep your eyes peeled for a new location! Support Report with your favorite burrowing, nocturnal mammal and Answerpreneur, Aardvark!! Happy Friday Players! This week's super fun and interesting Support fact is about those mysterious and elusive creatures oft known as Kano employee accounts. As a person who loves to play games, I can attest to that working in for a company that makes them is pretty rad. However there is a downside: making a game your job means that you never really get to enjoy it the way your audience does. Many of the mechanics that make the game fun to play don't apply to you because you know how they work and are testing them all the time to make sure they ARE working. Some players feel like we don't play and can't understand what is going on from their perspective. The truth is that most of us are online regularly doing relatively boring things to evaluate performance or check for issues, and not focusing on leveling or competing against other players. Ultimately we can't experience the features and content we create the say we you do or explore them as deeply; this is is one of many reasons why feedback and engagement with you guys is so crucial. If you do happen to run across a Kano/Apps staff account, you are certainly welcome to beat the stuffing out of it as you see fit, these are fighting games after all. We are pretty busy most the time though and probably won't respond. Some of them are also a bit Frankenstein's Monsterish from being messed with over and over again (apparently my level 60 character if Facebook Zombie slayer was showing up on level 2000+ fight lists last week) if you notice anything odd like this, just let us know and we'll make sure we fix them up so they don't throw people for a loop. Cheers, Aardvark Terrible Joke of the Week I've got nothing witty to say about this week's joke. How did the artist paint the picture? Easel-y. ← Highlight for hilarity!

Hi mi7ch! Its been a while since this announcement, can you give us an ETA about the new location? November, December ? And the new characters for the higher lvls are still in the not gonna be released for a while state ?
Hi Gazember, The expected release date of the location is later this week. We're holding off on releasing the next round of characters for the higher levels for a little while to rework them after the feedback we received during the last release.
