Roblox's Rivals FPS experience receives Update 9, introducing the Gunblade and Bridge map. Developer Nosniy Games' patch notes highlight these additions, along with minor skin adjustments and weapon renamings. This update is smaller than recent ones, focusing primarily on new content rather than bug fixes or balance changes.
The Gunblade is a dual-purpose weapon combining a rifle and a blade, offering strategic advantages in close-quarters combat. The new Bridge map, created by @GreatGuyBoom and set in Seoul, is a compact arena designed for intense, close-range battles.
Nosniy Games explains the omission of bug fixes and balance adjustments, stating these will be addressed in the next major update, which will include the highly anticipated Ranked mode. The developers assure players that community feedback is being considered for these improvements. For more Rivals content, check out the list of active codes [here](placeholder for link).
