ARMS Ver 2.1.0 has been released, featuring a slew of Fighter and ARM changes. Plus, a new ARMS Fighter to arrive in the next update!

ARMS 2.1.0 Training Menu

The week long tease is over, and the new ARMS Ver 2.1.0 Update is finally here. There are general bug fixes, and minor changes to Master Mummy, Mechanica, Kid Cobra and Byte & Barq. On top of that, there are balances and changes to 16 different ARMS. You can check the full patch notes here, at the Nintendo US website.

Sneakily, the ARMS Twitter have announced that the next update will feature a new ARMS Fighter, and a new ARMS type. There’s no indication of who it may be or the number of ARMS to be added. However, if you’ve been paying attention to the recent data leaks, there should be quite the variety to look forward to.

Game balance changes and adjustments are the main focus of this update and are small in scale.
However, in the next large scale update, additions of a new Fighter and a new ARM are planned!
Look forward to more information!

The Training mode has been upgraded, and made much more visible to players – now appearing head on in the Main Menu. ARMS has received a bit of criticism for not teaching new players enough – so if you feel this way, make sure to check out the Training mode and all the new topics.

In Ver 2.1.0, Training has been moved to the Top Menu!
Training topics have been increased, and each respective Training topic now displays the degree of difficulty in this renewal.
Will clearing all these with ease mean you’re a muscular ARMS Fighter?
