Austin, Texas – March 29, 2023 – KingsIsle Entertainment has a serious passion for fashion. The team is dropping some absolutely fabulous new content for North American Wizard101 players that will encourage Wizards around the Spiral to Make. It. Work.
Stitching is a gameplay feature that lets players combine the stats of one item with the looks of another, so they can show off their style and flair while remaining effective while slinging spells. Today’s update takes this feature to the next level by allowing players to strut their stuff in official competition and rankings in the Rate My Stitch events. The cream of the crop can earn some seriously stylin’ prizes and gain street cred as the top fashionista in the Hall of Fame.
If players are not quite ready to traverse the catwalk, they can rate others’ styles, try out new designs in the Fashion Studio, or browse the leaderboards for their next hot new look.
There will also be special Rate My Stitch events themed around different styles with lucrative rewards like new gear. Another reward players may earn in these events is a Stitch Token. With a Stitch Token you may stitch or unstitch a piece of gear for free.
“Rate My Stitch is an exciting new feature we’re proud of because it allows players to display their fashion creativity. Our players love sharing their outfits online and we’re certainly looking forward to seeing their new stitches.” – Gary Smith, Principal Engineer & Designer
In addition to Rate My Stitch, today’s update also includes new options for playing through select bosses to make repeat progression through those bosses more flexible. Future updates will include even more select encounters. There are also new competitive event options and rewards, a fresh PvP BattlePass season, a new Gauntlet to conquer with your friends, and more.
