Valve continues to provide regular updates to Deadlock, despite abandoning a fixed update schedule. The latest patch isn't a huge overhaul, but it's significantly more than a minor adjustment. A complete changelog is posted on the game's forum.

Four new heroes were added on January 18th, followed swiftly by balance tweaks. Holliday's Crackshot ability now affects units, halving its cooldown when doing so. Calico's Ava ability can now destroy objects she passes through.
Existing heroes also received adjustments: Kelvin's health increased (600 to 650), Vendicta's bullet speed decreased (810 to 740), and her movement speed reduced (9 to 8). In total, eleven heroes received targeted changes, including the recently introduced characters.
The game remains in closed beta, maintaining a player base consistently between 7,000 and 20,000 players.
