Version 2.0 of ARMS adds the first free DLC character, Max Brass, who used to be one of the final bosses in the Grand Prix gamemode. Now, he’s a playable fighter for fans to pick up, learn and master across ARMS’ modes. Max Brass comes with three new arms; Nade, Roaster and Kablammer. Additionally, Max Brass flies in with his prestige new stage, the Sky Arena.
ARMS 2.0 also includes a brand new mode called Hedlok Scramble, where players will fight over a capsule containing the Hedlok, once it is opened a player will receive the Hedlok for a limited time to deal an amazing amount of damage. Hedlok Scramble is available in Versus, Friend, Local and Party Match.
A new Stats feature has been added allowing players to view their best fighter, arms, stages, win-rate and more.
Events have been added to the main menu. Not must is known about the events right now, as players can only opt in or out of events as of now. Events, presumably, will be similar to Splatoon’s Splatfest, where players battle with an event theme surrounding them.
More progression has been added to ARMS as the highest rank has been raised to 20.
