* In Extraction, Players return to spawning seperately instead of grouped up. Additionally, extracting time has been reduced from 8 seconds to 5 seconds.
* In Party's Splat, players can now only go into squid mode in their own color.
* In SkyZone, players now spawn on the outskirt of the map instead of in the middle, and must work their way inward. Loot now get progressively better the further in the map.

* In regular Spleef, the last 3 layers now decay simultaneously. Players also can now get kill credits from spleefing.
