Arena of Kings Update v1.1.0.0 Bug Fixes and Balancing Changes

Arena of Kings
Arena of Kings Steam

Arena of Kings recently received a new update that fixed several issues and made some balancing changes.

The developers improved the game's networking to prevent connection errors and random disconnects. There was a common issue that kept players stuck in the login queue. To fix this issue, the developers implemented a method where the account will be set offline after 30 seconds or when the game ends.

The developers have added a fourth stage of Sudden Death, which increases all the damage taken by 55% and deals 7.5% of maximum health every second to all players. This change will make it slightly harder but makes gameplay more interesting for those looking for a good challenge.
