Slapshot: Rebound, a free-to-play, physics-based 3v3 ice hockey game developed and published by Oddshot Games, received today, April 11, its 1.0 update, leaving Steam Early Access. The new update also brings a new virtual hangout spot, a new ranked season, and a season pass.
The Pond, the before-mentioned new hangout area, was previously only available to be joined in custom lobbies. Now it is accessible to all players, directly, or while in queue for a match. With the new patch, Season 1 started. Along with it, there was a soft ranked reset, and the Season 1 season pass is now available with new items on the free and premium tracks.
Oddshot Games also stated some additional features, such as Quick Play, where the player gets matched against other players of their region to improve their ranking, a Practice Mode, and Custom character customization. The player will also be able to continue their progression along the Pre-Season Pass.
