Six new ~~heroes~~ have been spotted on the streets of the Cursed Apple: {{HeroIcon|Mina}} the vampire, {{HeroIcon|Billy}} the demonic goat, {{HeroIcon|Paige}} who can bring books to life, ~~The~~ {{HeroIcon|Doorman}} who's always at your service, {{HeroIcon|Victor}} the monster who can't be stopped, and {{HeroIcon|Drifter}} who terrorizes the city.

Six new [[hero]]es have been spotted on the streets of the Cursed Apple: {{HeroIcon|Mina}} the vampire, {{HeroIcon|Billy}} the demonic goat, {{HeroIcon|Paige}} who can bring books to life, {{HeroIcon|The Doorman}} who's always at your service, {{HeroIcon|Victor}} the monster who can't be stopped, and {{HeroIcon|Drifter}} who terrorizes the city.

Rather than enabling all these new heroes at once, we're trying a new approach where we'll be staggering their release, unlocking one every other day with the first starting today. From there, you’ll help decide which hero unlocks next by casting votes in the new pre-game lobby called 'The Hideout'.

=== The Hideout ===

Welcome to the Hideout! The Hideout replaces the existing Dashboard UI and is your personal area to play around in while waiting for a match. You can invite friends to your hideout, or join them in theirs. We hope it will be a fun place to spend time as well as provide future opportunities for personalization, achievements, and events.

Welcome to the [[Hideout]]! The Hideout replaces the existing Dashboard UI and is your personal area to play around in while waiting for a match. You can invite friends to your hideout, or join them in theirs. We hope it will be a fun place to spend time as well as provide future opportunities for personalization, achievements, and events.

Interact with the terminals located throughout the Hideout to access various functions like Play, Watch, and Learn. The Hideout features a practice range where you can quickly test movement and abilities without needing to load into the Sandbox. Don't worry, the legacy sandbox is still available via a teleporter in the practice range, or through the Play Menu.
