BTD Battles 2 Patch Notes 1.8 – December 30, 2022

New Features
  • Banana Farmer

    • The Banana Farmer helps out in games by picking up collectibles for you.

    • He’ll pick up anything that you’d normally have to tap or mouse over to collect, such as bananas (obviously), bloon traps, supply crates, Obyn’s Wall of Trees, etc.

    • Each Banana Farmer is single-use. He only lasts until the end of the game or until you sell him.

    • You can purchase Banana Farmers in the shop for Monkey Money. Your first pack is free!

  • Bloon Bot

    • The Bloon Bot automatically sends Bloons at your opponent for income so you can focus on defense.

    • It will continually send whichever Bloon you choose until you manually send some or tap/click on it to stop.

    • It will stop sending if you run out of cash but will resume as soon as you can afford the chosen Bloon send again.

    • Each Bloon Bot is single use. It only lasts until the end of the game or until you sell it.

    • You can purchase Bloon Bots in the shop for Monkey Money. Your first pack is free!

  • New Map: Banana Depot

    • This new map is available in Ranked games from White Wasteland onwards and in Casual, Private and Event games.

    • Space is hard to come by in this busy depot. You’ll need to pay to send the trucks on their way if you want more space for your towers.

  • New Map: Bloon Bot Factory

    • This new map is available in Ranked games from Lead Dungeon onwards and in Casual, Private and Event games.

    • One of the large elevators descends into the depths of the factory every two rounds, temporarily removing all towers placed on it. You’ll need a backup defense to succeed on this map!

    • Keep an eye on the warning lights and sirens next to the elevators. They signal when one of the elevators is about to descend, giving you a few moments to react before your towers disappear.

  • Season 10

    • A brand new bling season has started!

    • Unlock awesome new cosmetics by earning Golden Bananas including the Voxel DDT and the Technical Tower Boost.

    • Collect new items for Striker Jones and Biker Bones in two new hero showcases: War Games and King of Flame.
