Party Rumble serves up a variety of quick one-round games, including high-speed skateboard races, collecting the most Chao, striking a pose on a podium, and more.
Along with Party Rumble, we're also adjusting the difficulty of some stages and the game controls to provide an even more enjoyable experience overall.

Starter Missions
We're adding Starter Missions, geared towards new players!
As you complete missions, you can earn skins, buddies, rings, and other rewards, as well as unlock new features that give you more options for play, so be sure to work your way through them!
*Current users who have already progressed to certain play milestones will be provided separate rewards to make up for Starter Mission rewards.
Toy Capsules
We're adding Toy Capsules, a new way to obtain items and rewards!
Each round you play fills your meter more, and when it's full, you'll have a chance to open a Toy Capsule!
You'll also have a chance to upgrade the Toy Capsule's rarity when you open it.
If the upgrade succeeds, you'll have a chance to get especially fantastic prizes!
Prizes include Skin Fragments, Season Score Bonuses, and Puzzle Pieces that come with a 100 Red Star Ring reward once you collect all the pieces to complete the puzzle!
【Updated 3/19/2026】
There is a bug in which sometimes players can open a capsule more than the intended twice a day.
This will be fixed on the next data update.
Rumble Plus Benefits
Rumble Plus subscribers will now get their Toy Capsules automatically upgraded by one level of rarity.
Rarer capsules are a big help when hunting for those extra-special prizes!
UI Adjustment for Skin Fragments
We've adjusted the UI to make it easier to see how many Skin Fragments you have.
You can see Skin Fragments for the current season in the top right corner on the Home Screen. You can also convert Fragments to skins from the same spot.
We've also added a tab for fragments on the Customize screen. You can check on your current fragments, or convert them to skins from there as well.
Other Adjustments
- Increased Red Star Ring Rewards
We're adding Red Star Rings to free Season Passes. We're also swapping some Stage Challenge rewards to Red Star Rings instead of points.
Players who've already gotten the point rewards for these Stage Challenges will be provided with Red Star Rings separately.

We've added more options to the Settings menu on PC to allow for a wider range of optimization.
