Valve continues to deliver updates for Deadlock, even without a fixed release schedule. The latest patch isn't a huge overhaul, but it's far from insignificant. A complete changelog can be found on the official forums.

Following the January 18th introduction of four new heroes, balance adjustments swiftly followed. Holliday's Crackshot ability now affects units, halving its cooldown when doing so. Calico's Ava ability has been enhanced to destroy objects she passes through.

These changes also impacted existing heroes: Kelvin received a health boost (from 600 to 650), while Vendicta experienced nerfs to both bullet speed (reduced from 810 to 740) and movement speed (from nine to eight). In total, eleven heroes, including the newcomers, received targeted adjustments.

The game remains in closed beta, boasting a consistent online player count between 7,000 and 20,000.
