Your pirates now level up!
Upgrades are no longer bought with Belly: each character earns experience in their runs, levels up to level 100, and each level gives a point to upgrade whatever you choose.
No more emptying your bag of Belly at the shop! We've completely changed how your pirates get stronger: from now on, each character levels up as you play with them.
“The more you fight, the stronger you get!”
Experience and levels
Every time you play a run, your character earns experience:
- Every enemy beaten gives experience: tougher ones give more.
- Every boss beaten gives a nice extra chunk.
- Winning a stage gives even more.
With that experience the character levels up, up to level 100. Each character has their own level: playing with Zoro only levels up Zoro.
Skill points
Every time your character levels up, they get 1 skill point. Spend it in Upgrades to raise whichever one you want: Vitality, Strength, Speed, Critical hit, Veto, Repertoire…
When you reach level 100 you'll have exactly the points to max out every upgrade. What will you raise first? You decide!
New upgrade: Level experience
There's a new upgrade, Level experience: each level gives you +5% experience to level up the character. Perfect for picking up the pace from the start.
What about Belly?
Belly is as valuable as ever: now you use it to unlock new pirates in Crew. The Treasure upgrade still gives you more Belly in every run.
What happens to the upgrades I already bought?
You don't lose anything. Every upgrade you bought with Belly stays as it is, and your character starts directly at the level that matches, with those points already spent. From there, keep levelling up!
Where to see it
- Open Upgrades: at the top you'll see each character's level, their experience bar and the points you have to spend.
- When a run ends you'll see the experience you earned and, if you level up, we'll let you know!
See you on the high seas, pirates! Every enemy counts.
