Radical Heights Update 1 Patch Notes
Contestants,
Who’s ready for an update?! It’s only been a little over a week since Radical Heights launched into X-TREME Early Access, and it has been a busy but very exciting time. The Boss Key team has been working hard on reviewing and implementing your feedback along with some improvements and fun additions of our own. It’s been Dome tested and engineer approved to make its way into Radical Heights today, April 18 at 4PM/ET!
It includes things like…
BIKE TRICKS
You asked for bike improvements and the ability to pull off more tricks, well here you go!
You can now make a shattering entrance by diving through windows. Not even a scratch.
We’ve added cosmetic items to help you make your contestant the way you want! Be on the lookout for them during the match, grab ‘em to unlock them and add them to your Prize Room! Our rad artists have also added more items to customize your kill card like 9 new profile icons and more!
Say hello to a new weapon we’re adding to the Dome, the FAL.

BMX BIKES
There was a large amount of changes done to the BMX Bikes for Patch 1. They will spin out of control less when riding normally, and we added in additional features to allow players to perform backflip as well as additional air controls. This now means players will also get knocked off the bike if they land on their head! We’re still tuning and tweaking the BMX, and we will continue to do so until we are happy with it!
- BMX bikes should spin out of control less frequently.
- You now have air control on bikes and can do back flips and spins (or just go for that perfect landing).
- If you mess up on the BMX and land on your face, you’ll get knocked off of the bike now.
