Outside of the visual changes, there doesn’t seem to be anything added to the game in terms of balance or other additional content. This makes sense, however, considering that Deadlock has just addedsix new heroes to the game, alongsidea slew of other balance changes this month. This patch is now available to download and will affect the visual state of both ranked and casual matches.

Will Deadlock feature more seasonal content?

Deadlock devs have not said whether or not the game will mimic others like Overwatch 2 or League of Legends in implementing themed-seasonal updates. But, this Halloween update suggests that fans can expect at least a small visual tweak to celebrate the seasons and holidays. Once the game is fully released, it is likely that these will be more fleshed out.
