Brawlhalla gets Steven Universe collaboration
Collaborations have been a regular occurrence in Brawlhalla, Ubisoft and Blue Mammoth Games’ free-to-play fighter. The latest one features Steven Universe – Cartoon Network’s animated television series.
Here are the patch notes for version 3.53, along with a trailer for the new collaboration:
Steven Universe Joins Brawlhalla!
The Crystal Gems will always find a way to save the day! Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, and Stevonnie are new Epic Crossovers. Epic Crossovers feature custom Signature effects, custom lock-in animations, dedicated Roster spots, and two new Weapon Skins.
In Brawlhalla, Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, and Stevonnie mirror the abilities of Petra, Xull, Kaya, and Val, respectively, and will be staying in Mallhalla after the event ends.
Featuring:

Game Improvements
User Experience
- The match duration for the Free-for-All queue has been lowered from 4 minutes to 3 minutes. In conjunction with this change, we have made the following additional changes:

- Fangwild and The Enigma have had their timings changed for when those maps shift their geometry to better fit the new default match duration.
- Removed the lock on changing teams that wouldn’t allow you to put all players on the same team at any time.
Animation
- Smoothed out Hellboy’s idle animation in character select.
Bug Fixes
User Interface
- Fixed a bug where the time shown for replay files would show “00” for the hour instead of “12” for games that occurred during the noon or midnight hours.
- Fixed a bug where some Skin displays in the store would be frozen on a single frame.
Gameplay
- Jiro Neutral Scythe: Fixed a bug that caused the first shadow clone to play at an incorrect time during the wall version.
Animation
- For Nintendo Switch, fixed the character asymmetry when using the Guitar Solo Taunt.
