There are also a few exciting changes in the Save the World mode.
New strange weapon
A new weapon will be available with this update. It is a parachute. According to data miners, the new weapon comes in blue, purple, and gold rarities.
Reddit user ultranum1 shows a little gameplay with the new weapon:
This weapon resembles the powerful, laborious lightsabers that were introduced during the Star Wars event.
Locker feature gets a new option
A small change that can make a big difference is the randomizer in the presets. You can now rotate your assembled and saved style combinations.
This means you can use all your favorite skins and swap them out every round without much effort!

With the update 12.20, the locker feature was introduced, where you can save your combinations in the locker.
New fall damage item
With the update 12.30, a new item was introduced that prevents you from being eliminated by fall damage.
It is a launch pad that you can throw on the ground. Once you land on it, you will be propelled back into the air.
