DimensionsVS Patch Notes — December 14, 2018
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
As well as multiple bug fixes and changes this update brings a whole new game mode for online and local play.
Introducing: Tag Team
A new game mode where players pick two characters to take into battle. Although this mode plays much like the current mode you will all be used to, players now have the option to switch out their current character with a pre-selected replacement. It may sound simple in concept but it opens up a whole new range of play options, such as; momentum cancelling out of knockback, double recovery and extended combo opportunities. To switch character players must first build up their Swap Meter by dealing damage, taking damage and dying. The meter also builds slowly over time.
