<p>Illuvium Arena started 2025 on a high note as the game received three major updates in the first month of the year. Patches 1.4.0, 1.4.1, and 1.5.0 packed balance tweaks, UI upgrades, and quality-of-life improvements.</p><p>While balance changes are crucial to stabilize the in-game meta and allow players to discover new strategies, the three updates rolled out essential changes to make the gameplay experience smoother as well.</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/illuvium_arena_patch_1_5_0_notes_2_0da6deacd3.jpg" alt="illuvium-arena-patch-1-5-0-notes-2.jpg" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/thumbnail_illuvium_arena_patch_1_5_0_notes_2_0da6deacd3.jpg 245w,https://assets.funjible.games/small_illuvium_arena_patch_1_5_0_notes_2_0da6deacd3.jpg 500w,https://assets.funjible.games/medium_illuvium_arena_patch_1_5_0_notes_2_0da6deacd3.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p>One of the biggest highlights from Patch <a href="https://illuvium.io/news/illuvium-arena-gauntlet-patch-1-5-0">1.5.0</a> is the Team Planner MVP. This tool lets players strategize their lineups, like a practice mode. By using this feature, you can make the final decisions on the strategies that you'd like to try before queuing for a match or making a purchase in the shop.</p><p>The default camera angle also received a redesign, which now provides a better view of the battlefield. Illuvial and synergy tooltips were enhanced to deliver clearer descriptions. This lets players hover over synergies and augments to get more detailed information, reducing the guesswork during gameplay.</p><h2><strong>More Info and New Horizons</strong></h2><p><a href="https://funjible.games/games/Illuvium-arena">Illuvium Arena</a> players will also see more notifications in matches, as there are now alerts that pop up when opponents level up or enter a win/loss streak. All free emotes will also be automatically equipped for a more colorful gameplay experience.</p><div class="raw-html-embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Arena Gauntlet Patch 1.5.0 is Live! 🎯🔥<br><br>Rangers, the latest Gauntlet update is here!
