Just read the amazing Solaris announcement on twitter. (Link coming soon and more details to come.)
"Let the Games begin!"
The bay door swings up and away, revealing your opponent across a labyrinth of obstacles rising from the arena floor.
Barely aware that the signal has been given, you are off and running, weapons blazing to cover your desperate sprint to safety.
Diving through a maelstrom of explosions, you round a corner and charge your foe, ignoring the insistent flashing of your warning lights.
Brief overview...
1. Coming in a month or so.
2. Arenas include the classics.... Boreal Reach, The Factory, Ishiyama, The Jungle, Steiner Coliseum and Solaris Stables. Not all maps will be ready when it is released.
3. Yes there will be betting of cbills and possibly mechs later on.
4. Yes it will have leader boards both over all and per game mode.
5. Yes it will have Duncan Fisher.
6. Yes it will have several game modes. Modes will include free for all. 12 2 man team free for all. Also 1vs1 - 2vs2 - 4vs4 - 6vs6 and 12vs12.

Well, to be fair it wouldn't be the first time an April Fools joke turned into a legit addition to the game XD
