[h1]Slapshot Rebound 1.0 is here![/h1]
We're very excited to bring you the full release of Slapshot Rebound! We've been working on the game for the last 4+ years, making countless of improvements, adding new features and working with all of you to make the game the best it can be. As mentioned in the initial announcement, 1.0 does not mean the game is done - we will continue working on it and bringing you more awesome things.

[h2]The Pond[/h2]
We've been teasing The Pond for a very long time and it is finally here in all its glory. You can join The Pond from the main menu while you're in the queue for a match or just because you want to hang out with others. It's a place to practice, play minigames and have fun together without any pressure.
[h2]Season 1[/h2]
The pre-seasons have concluded! Everyone that has played their placement matches in pre-season 2 will get a title and gloves for the peak rank they have achieved. Season 1 starts off with a soft reset of the ranks, meaning you'll need to redo your placements but start off at your previous rating. The rating calculations, matchmaking algorithm and rank requirements have been adjusted to reflect everything we've learned from the pre-seasons!
[h2]Season 1 Pass [/h2]
The new season brings with it an all-new season pass with 50+ new cosmetics. If you've completed the previous pass, you'll have received enough pux to get this one for free (if you didn't spend them :wink:). This pass also contains pux rewards to pay back your initial investment. There's some cool new free cosmetics on the free track as well! You'll still have unrestricted access to the previous pass, you can select which pass is active in the new dropdown menu on the Season tab.
[h2]Patch Notes[/h2]
