Slap Battles Bounty Glove headlines the August 22, 2025 update, introducing a risk-reward bounty system, a limited-time Randomizer Gamemode, and several glove balance changes. This guide breaks down exactly how the bounty mechanic works, what Randomizer changes about your matches, and the full patch notes players need to know right now.
What is the Slap Battles Bounty Glove?
The Bounty Glove is built around a risk-reward loop that grows during a fight. Each slap you land increases your bounty, and eliminating opponents adds extra value on top. The result is a tug-of-war where successful plays raise your stakes while making you a more appealing target. The system emphasizes momentum without changing the core objective of lining up slaps and securing knockouts.
Because the glove’s power revolves around the bounty you build, every exchange matters. The higher your bounty climbs, the more impactful your takedowns become, reinforcing the idea that decisiveness and timing are central to how the glove feels in live matches.
How to Get the Bounty Glove in Slap Battles
The official unlock method has not been announced. However, it is stated that the glove can be obtained easily by maximizing the Hitman Glove. For now, players who want to prepare should focus on progressing Hitman to its maximum, then check in-game once the Bounty Glove path is available.
Slap Battles Randomizer Gamemode
Randomizer Gamemode is available for a limited time and deals you a random glove from your inventory every time you respawn. By constantly rotating your toolset, matches feel less predictable and more reactive. You will be challenged to adapt to whatever you draw after each elimination, making positioning and quick decision-making more prominent while the mode is active.
