Microtransactions

Type Notes
Cosmetic Skins for characters and other items can be purchased using Show-Bucks and Kudos.
Currency Show-Bucks currency is a real money purchase, and is used to unlock cosmetics. Kudos is also another type of in-game currency that you cannot purchase with real money, instead you gain the currency by just playing the game. This currency can also be used to buy cosmetics. Lastly, Crowns was another form of currency you could obtain by winning games. Unfortunately it was removed in favor of Show-Bucks and any previous Crowns you had before will now be converted into Kudos.
