Brawlhalla Patch 10.08 Adds Aurus, Battle Pass Classic 8, and Weapon Balance
Brawlhalla Patch 10.08 introduces Aurus the gladiator alongside Battle Pass Classic Season 8, a limited 2v2 Kung Foot queue, and sweeping weapon and stance balance changes.
Brawlhalla's latest update brings a brand new Legend to the Grand Tournament, resurrects a fan-favorite seasonal event, and implements crucial balance passes across multiple weapons and stats. Patch 10.08 is live now, rolling out content ahead of upcoming competitive resets and summer events.
Meet Aurus the Gladiator
Aurus joins the roster wielding a Spear and Chakram, boasting 6 Strength, 6 Dexterity, 6 Defense, and 4 Speed. Alongside his debut, players can unlock three new skins: Centurion Aurus, God of Boar Aurus, and Freesmith Inquisitor Aurus, plus the Auroodle Avatar. The character arrives with dedicated Twitch drop streams offering Community Color v2 rewards for Aurus, Thea, Artemis, and Ezio through July 7.
Battle Pass Classic 8 and Summer Events
Battle Pass Classic Season 8 drops on June 17, taking players back to Terminus to fight through 85 tiers against THNX biotech experiments. A limited-time 2v2 Kung Foot queue runs from June 18 to June 30 ahead of the Eternal Sports Kung Foot Championship. Additionally, the Heatwave summer event starts July 8 with earnable rewards like the Scuba Raptor skin and returning event items.
Super Stance Overhauls
Developers overhauled several Super Stances to provide better alternatives for Legends whose previous options heavily penalized their lowest stats. Affected characters include Sentinel, Lin Fei, Fait, Thor, Mako, Reno, Ezio, and Priya. For instance, Sentinel Super Strength now draws 2 points from Defense instead of harsher options, while Lin Fei Super Defense trades Dexterity.
Weapon Nerfs and Buffs
Weapon changes focus on adjusting high-risk recovery windows and force values. Bow neutral and side lights have increased recovery time on miss. Hammer side light and side air see damage reductions, while Katars suffer reduced forward threat coverage on side lights and lower recovery force. Conversely, Chakram, Orb, and several Signature moves for Ezio, Loki, and Red Raptor receive damage or force buffs.
Why this patch matters
Patch 10.08 shakes up Brawlhalla's meta by directly penalizing overperforming recovery frames on weapons like the Bow and Hammer while expanding viable stat choices via Super Stance reworks.
