New Map - Lagoon of Doom

 

Lagoon of Doom, home to bottomless waterfalls, is forever swathed in fog. They say that sea serpents ply its depths, ready to snag anyone foolhardy enough to cross the Lagoon. Surely, it’s nonsense -- but just in case, let’s stick to the beach, and avoid the water!

New Map - Grand Harbor

 

Grand Harbor is home to several noteworthy sights. Among them is a pair of wrecked pirate ships, settled in the shallow waters, where they held their final naval battle. There could be treasure stored below their decks, but there are definitely piles of unstable rockets down there. So stay clear!

@EA_Leeloo 

I've only been able to play matches in Bots in Paradise but the new maps are pretty neat. Harbour is nice and simple while the Lagoon has great verticality and looks extra nice.

Edit: Got my first multi-KO (4+) so things are looking up!

★★★ Newbie
@EA_Leeloo Are purchasable skins and cosmetics from this event limited? Or will it be possible to buy them even after the event is ended?

Hey, sorry for the late response. I was AFK for a few days.

 

@TTZ_Dipsy Glad to hear you're enjoying the new maps! And congrats on the achievement, that's great!!! Party hat

 

@TemporalSine5050 I'm afraid the purchasable Blast in Paradise skins/cosmetics will only available during the event (until August 26th).
