The second stage of Fight Realm’s first-ever multi-event competition wrapped up last week!

I meant to get this update out sooner, but we’ve been bogged down with fixes, improvements and new features as we prepare for our first-ever multi-month competition starting in October. More on that very soon.

Noche delivered another fun card with plenty of movement across the leaderboard some exposure to some new up and comers and, more importantly, set us up nicely for the final stage of Rite of Return.

One important thing to remember going into the finale: everyone is still in the game.

We have some current leaders who have built themselves a solid advantage, but the Main Event is worth 5X a Fight Night, so there are still a huge number of points on the table.

Make sure you’ve made all of your picks before the event starts.

We’ve also rolled out a bunch of updates across Fight Realm since the last event:

• The new homepage now features the Feed, making Fight Realm and user-generated content much easier to discover and engage with.
• Settings and Profiles have been cleaned up, including making it easier to add your social handles.
• The Competition Centre has had a number of improvements, making it easier to access competitions and events, see where you rank and quickly identify which picks you still need to make.
• Realm Intelligence has been opened up to all users on the first bout of the event, giving everyone a taste of one of our FR+ features.
• Prizes have been optimised on the competition page to make them much easier to understand at a glance.
• Polls have been improved across the Feed.
• Group Chat is now available to every group rather than being gated behind FR+.
• You can now tag other users in posts and replies — with direct messages coming soon!

There’s plenty more happening behind the scenes, but those are the major updates worth checking out.

Otherwise, I’m super excited for this final event.

We get to find out whether Pantoja has fully recovered and whether Van deserves to keep the title, while Arman is finally back against a formidable opponent, plus there are plenty of other bangers across the card.

Can’t wait.

I’ll keep this update short and quick, but make sure your picks are locked in.

The next update will announce the winners of FR23: Rite of Return, along with some exciting news for the entire Realm.

See you on the Realm!
