Paladins – Champions of the Realm Patch Notes | Return to the Past!

Introduction

Get ready to travel back in time with the latest variant of Siege in an exciting twist that will leave you strategizing like never before! Introducing massive maps and a classic touch, this new mode brings a refreshing change to the game. While the rules of standard Siege remain intact, there's one crucial exception. At the start of each round, a random selection will determine one of three available capture points across the map, resulting in new payload paths. This means you'll need to work closely with your team to devise winning strategies for each capture point. And with the sheer size of these maps, attacking teams will enjoy a quick 5-second respawn timer and the ability to remount. But that's not all! We're thrilled to announce the return of three beloved maps from the game's closed beta: Enchanted Forest, Temple Ruins, and Glacier Keep. If you've been a loyal Paladins player from the beginning, these maps will bring back a wave of nostalgia, now presented in a fresh and exciting light. For those who remember these maps from years ago, there are a few important notes to keep in mind. The Engine and Vault/Door mechanics couldn't be implemented in this mode, but don't worry, each capture point follows the current Siege rules with our trusty cart. Additionally, the bright yellow light indicating the selected capture point couldn't be included at this time, but rest assured, it has no impact on gameplay whatsoever. Lastly, to ensure stability on consoles, we had to make some adjustments to the ground floor of each map, resulting in a single material applied to all three (grass for Enchanted Forest and Temple Ruins, and snow for Glacier Keep, similar to the changes we made to the Payload maps). Again, this has no effect on gameplay. So gear up, rally your team, and prepare for an epic journey through time in Siege Remixed!

SIEGE REMIXED

Return to the Past with a new variant of Siege with massive maps and a classic twist! Rules remain the same as standard Siege with an important exception: the beginning of each round will randomly select 1 of 3 available capture points across the map, with new payload paths generated as a resultYou will need to coordinate with your team to figure out strategies for each capture point. Alongside this, due to the sheer size of these maps, the respawn timer for attacking teams is set to 5 seconds, and remounting is enabled for all players. With this exciting mode, we’re bringing back 3 classic maps from the game’s closed beta:
  • Enchanted Forest (This map eventually became Fish Market and Timber Mill.)
  • Temple Ruins (This map eventually became Serpent Beach, Jaguar Falls, and Frog Isle.)
  • Glacier Keep (This map eventually became Ice Mines and Frozen Guard. The third capture point eventually became its own map of the same name but was removed later in the game’s beta.)
If you’ve been playing Paladins from the beginning, these maps will look incredibly familiar. We’re happy we could bring them back in a new light! Some important notes only for those who played Paladins when these maps existed years ago:
  • There are no Engine or Vault/Door mechanics in this mode. These could not be implemented for now, each capture point follows current Siege rules with our current cart.
  • The bright yellow light that indicates which capture point was selected could not be implemented for now. This does not affect gameplay whatsoever.
  • The ground floor of each map needed to be changed to prevent the game from crashing on consoles, and as a result you will notice a single material applied to the ground of all 3 maps (grass for Enchanted Forest and Temple Ruins, snow for Glacier Keep similar to how we adjusted the Payload maps). This does not affect gameplay whatsoever.
