Just to temper expectations, I feel it’s worth reminding people that the blazing pass isn’t coming out until May
I’ve seen a lot of people getting excited about the contents of the pass, but haven’t seen anyone address how the actual release has been confirmed for sometime in May. I’d just rather that people be aware of this now rather than getting surprised and disappointed when it isn’t out on Thursday.
They’ve almost certainly done it this way as a player retention tool. New characters always drive up the player count for weeks before they trickle back down to the regular numbers, so there’s not really a point to releasing the pass at the same time as Jam. Dropping it a month after Jam means that there’ll be a 2nd boost to the player count right around the point that the 1st is coming to an end, then I assume Robo-Ky will be coming out around the point when the 2nd boost is ending, then the 2nd pass will probably start a month or two after Robo-Ky comes out, and so on and so forth.
