A new patch for Blood Bowl Legendary Edition is now available to update the Warhammer-style tackle football game to version 2.0.1.1. The patch is for all on-disc and digitally distributed editions of the game except for the Steam version, which will update itself automatically. The patch is offered on the Cyanide Studio Website and it is mirrored on The Patches Scrolls. The new version allows the creation of private leagues with open league settings while also addressing a number of bugs. The complete patch notes follow.

• Private Leagues with "Open League" settings:
  • It is now possible to create private leagues with settings similar to the current Open Leagues (Auld World, Naggaroth Open...).
  • These new leagues can be found in the League Finder tool (Type of league: Public League, Manager: Community).
  • It is possible to blacklist coaches when managing these leagues (Manage League, Teams, Blacklist).
  • Require Application (Yes/No): If set to No, teams can take part in the league without submitting an Application.
  • Only new teams (Yes/No): If set to Yes, only teams that haven't played a match can join the league.
  • Different settings for Matchmaking and Challenge are available (Ranked/Unranked).
