Time for the Luck O’ The Zombie Festival, A New Character, and the return of 12v12

March Patch Notes

Starting March 2nd, you’ll be seeing green as Giddy Park is transformed by the start of the Luck O’ The Zombie Festival! A touch of magic is also coming to Battle for Neighborville with the introduction of our first new character, the Wizard Zombie! Unlock this magical addition to your roster on the Prize Map (Golden Path) and complete the Prize Map (100%) to unlock his Legendary Wishbreaker costume. If you didn’t unlock last month’s Legendary Upgrade for Kernel Korn, you can now find it at Rux’s Emporium along with new stock for you to peruse for Rainbow Stars.

Wizard Zombie

The Wizard Zombie is a recent addition to the horde, having been uncovered only recently during Zomboss HQ renovations. In digging out space for yet another room of buff-looking Dr. Zomboss statues, an ancient room of half-eaten picture books was discovered, along with the Wizard.

Unlock the Wizard Zombie on the Prize Map once the Festival starts on March 2nd!

12 v 12 Turf Takeover
We are happy to announce the return of 12v12. When we switched to 8v8 we received a lot of feedback both positive and negative regarding the change, but now we feel it’s time to return to our roots with 12v12 Turf Takeover. Those of you who enjoyed 8v8 can expect to see it return in the future as a rotating weekly event. 

Weekly Challenges
The rewards from each Weekly Challenges will now reward Rainbow Stars (as opposed to previous where only the final Weekly Challenge awarded Rainbow Stars).

Now, keep reading for the rest of March’s content update (Patch will be out on 2/25, Festival will start 3/2)!
