Cyanide Studio and NACON are pleased to announce that Season 10 of Blood Bowl 3 is now available. It includes a host of new content, such as the Vampire faction, a new seasonal event and a new unlockable rewards path.

Presentation of the Vampire faction
On the field, vampires are quite formidable: strong, fast, agile, and capable of regenerating their wounds. Thanks to their Hypnotic Gaze skill, they can render an opponent powerless and break through the defence line. However, due to their Bloodlust trait, vampires sometimes give in to their urges by feeding off their team’s human servants… A good coach must find the right balance when building their team to prevent their powerful vampires from turning the rest of the team into mid-match snacks!

An exclusive new seasonal event: Sylvania’s Harvest
Throughout Season 10, players will be able to take part in Sylvania’s Harvest, a competition between three teams from Sylvania: the Vampires, the Undead, and the Necromantic Horrors. This solo seasonal mode allows players to try the new faction for free and get a chance to obtain rewards, including a legendary skin.

Season 10 also includes an unlockable rewards path, multiple adjustments and an additional Star Player. Further information on Season 10 is available here.
