Riot Games has revealed the update 1.01 patch notes for free-to-play tag-based fighting game 2XKO ahead of the early access launch. The release of 2XKO update 1.01 also marks the beginning of Season 0, featuring playable champions Teemo and Warwick, character balance adjustments, Combo Trials, the Bandlewood Crossing and Firelight Run stages, a Training Mode Frame Data Bar feature, Ranked updates, and much more.
What’s more, starting with Season 1, each season of 2XKO will launch with a new playable champion. During the season’s first three weeks, the character may be unlocked in the store for 1,000 KO Points, one Champion Token, or a purchasable Ultra Battle Pass bundle. Characters can also be unlocked by completing Recruitment Events, allowing you to redeem Battle Pass XP to get the new champion for free. Once the three weeks are up, the new champion may be unlocked with 10,000 Credits, 1,000 KO Points, or one Champion Token.

2XKO Update 1.01 Patch Notes
Quality of Life Updates
- Assist meter visuals have been updated for better readability.
- There is now an additional confirmation dialog that appears on selecting Exit Game from the Settings tab.
- Added News section to the home screen of the 2XKO client, which shows current promotions in the Store.
- Added narrator feature, which can read the name of any UI element aloud on mouseover.
- Enable the narrator in the Settings tab, under the Accessibility section.
- The Credits cap has been expanded from 10,000 to 12,000.
- We want wiggle room between our most expensive Credit purchases (10,000), and the cap. Credits are designed to be spent (and not hoarded), so we hope this will make overcapping less frequent.
Bug Fixes
- On Eject, incoming champions can no longer be thrown while entering the screen.
- Screen no longer repeatedly flashes when save states overlap with the pause menu.
Bots in Training mode will now perform actions after Break recovery, getup attack recovery, and inactive champion parry recovery. - Fixed issue where Training bots were not properly blocking Assist attacks because they were still considered a low or high attack.
- These attacks were all properly hitting as mids in actual player matches. Read the patch notes, bots!
2XKO enters early access on October 7 for PC. A full release of 2XKO is also planned for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. There will be cross-platform progression, which means players who start on PC can keep their progress when switching to console. What’s more, a 2XKO Ultra Starter Pack will be available with the early access launch featuring new skins for Vi, Ekko, and Jinx inspired by the popular Arcane animated series.
