It's been 2 years and a ton of work for a very small team, but this first look at what we're building is very special. It's competitive, exciting, and ABSOLUTELY feels like a true sport. Don't worry if you're not good right away, you'll get there :) player.gg/explore/games/proj…
Project Grizzly Playtest This Friday! Our first playtest arrives this Friday, and invites will go out soon.  The team has been working incredibly hard to get everything ready, and we can't wait to showcase the game for the first time.  The build focuses on testing matchmaking and our core game loop.  Project Grizzly is a non-stop, physics-driven, third-person competitive sport. So we are looking for those who love games like Rocket League, Rematch, VALORANT, and Counter-Strike 2. Open Playtest (Custom Games and Practice Field) - Friday, November 6: 5pm PT - Sunday, November 8: 8pm PT Matchmaking Playtest (Pick-Up 3v3, Custom Games and Practice Field) - Friday, November 6: 5pm - 8pm PT - Saturday, November 7: 5pm - 8pm PT - Sunday, November 8: 5pm - 8pm PT player.gg/explore/games/proj…

So many great games and franchises in here. Crazy to see a full shutdown...

Hell of a job with the release of 1.0 on @playSUPERVIVE ! I don't think anyone could have done a better job in this genre. Everything is better -- team fighting, ability management, micro-theory, camera smoothing, shooting mechanics, game pacing. Armory UX is my only FB!

Having some time this week to explore new titles and tech coming up in the industry has been refreshing. I’m still looking for the next competitive thunderbolt to sink my teeth into though. I haven’t had that feeling of “this is special” yet this decade. Any recommendations?

I’m very passionate about these types of changes for competitive games particularly. They’re good for players and they’re good for the underlying systems. Really appreciate the level of care from the teams to do it right in this case.
📢 As part of ongoing efforts to improve Competitive matchmaking for everyone and prevent some forms of smurfing, we're improving how we calculate skill for the initial placement matches in Competitive for players active across multiple modes and playlists. More info: rl.gg/cr

Competitive games are weird. Sometimes you grind in your try hard car and lose 3 divisions of progress in a night... ...and sometimes you dress your car up like a clownfish, only chat in Finding Nemo quotes, and go on a 10 game win streak making 3 new friends along the way...
