Welcome to our first global update! This release features awesome new heroes, and super-powered events celebrating the theatrical release of Disney•Pixar’s Incredibles 2. Also included are a number of smaller additions, improvements, and fixes listed in detail below.
Going forward, we plan to update the app roughly every 6 weeks. We are working on some bigger features and we hope to have the first of those ready for the 1.2 update. We also plan to have some smaller event and content updates in between app releases.
But enough about the future, we hope you enjoy update 1.1. Check out the full details below!

- New Friendships and Memory Disks
- New attack log for the Creep Surge
- Lots of visual polish, bug fixes, and UI improvements!
Kevin Flynn
“The thing about perfection is that it’s unknowable. It’s impossible, but it’s also right in front of us all the time.”
Kevin Flynn is a back-line support hero! Kevin Flynn’s hero chips can be found in the VIP Crate.
Skills
Power Cleanse (Fantastic Damage)
Flynn merges with the game code, cleansing negative status effects from his allies while dealing damage to all enemies.
Weakest Link (Fantastic Damage)
Flynn’s algorithm searches for the weakest character currently in combat. That character is restored health if it is an ally, or dealt damage if it is an enemy.
Data Shield
Flynn augments an ally, granting them a shield for up to 7 seconds.
Admin Privileges
Flynn attains admin access, granting him immunity from disables, and granting his allies reality.
Quorra
“Flynn is teaching me about the art of the selfless. About removing oneself from the equation.”
Quorra is a front-line damage hero! Quorra’s hero chips can be found only in the Diamond Crate.
Skills
Disc Spin (Fantastic Damage)
Quorra attacks nearby enemies with her light disc and sword, dealing damage with each attack. Quorra attacks 7 times.
Light Cycle (Fantastic Damage)
At the start of combat, Quorra rides her lightbike past enemies dealing damage to each enemy. Quorra is untargetable while riding her lightbike.
Disc Ricochet (Fantastic Damage)
Quorra throws her light disc at the furthest enemy dealing damage. It then bounces, hitting up to two other enemies.
Grid Power
Each hit of “Disc Spin” does bonus damage equal to 10% of her target’s max HP.
Hero Balance and Combat Changes
- Sulley & Boo green skill “Healing Laughter”
- Now heals at the end of City Watch levels
- Reduced by 10%
- This skill is now more potent in City Watch, but re-balanced it overall
- Jessie
- Green skill “Sonic Yodel”
- Now does fantastic damage
- Blue skill “Cowgirl Boogie”
- Now heals for 45% of damage done (down from 50%)
- We’ve made Jessie’s damage types more diverse but also a little easier to KO
- Green skill “Sonic Yodel”
- Violet blue skill “Shield Roll”
- Damage has been increased by approx. 25%
- Violet’s shielding powers are unmatched, but her damage needed an increase
- Elastigirl purple skill “Stretch Goals”
- Bonus Skill Power increased by 20%
- Elastigirl’s damage needed a little buff here
- Frozone purple skill “Frostbite”
- Damage increased by approx. 30%
- Frozone’s unique damage-while-frozen needed an increase for more impact in battle
- Slows and Speed-ups
- With more slows and speed-ups in the game, we’ve cleaned up how they stack:
- Attack and movement speed increases are now all additive
- Reductions are all multiplicative
- Speed increases are calculated first, then reductions are applied
- Example:
- Assume a hero has a base attack speed of 100
- Increasing that attack speed by 100% and then another 50% will result in a total attack speed 250
- A slow of 50% would reduce it to 125
- Another slow of 50% would further reduce it to 62.5
- With more slows and speed-ups in the game, we’ve cleaned up how they stack:
