<p>If you&#8217;ve been following <em>Fruit Ninja</em> [<a href="http://ift.tt/1eFMo27">$1.99</a>] at all, you&#8217;ll kind of see that the paid version of the game has not been updated since July 19th, where the free version of the game, <em>Fruit Ninja Free</em> [<a href="http://ift.tt/1r1tBZI">Free</a>] continues to get updates. <a href="https://twitter.com/BigBadDireWolf/status/788345343658385409">People have been asking on Twitter</a> and elsewhere about updates for the paid version, and Halfbrick has responded that they&#8217;re working on an update:</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Hi <a href="https://twitter.com/digitalruse">@digitalruse</a>, the team is hard at work planning updates for Fruit Ninja Paid, which we hope to be able to release soon!</p>

<p>Well, they&#8217;re definitely working on something new, and they&#8217;re calling it <em>Fruit Ninja Tournament Edition</em>. While they have limited info at the moment, they&#8217;re saying it&#8217;s their &quot;first step into the casual PVP / e-sport scene and promises to deliver the fastest, juiciest PVP experience on mobile.&quot; The game will be revealed at <a href="http://ift.tt/2fVnJys">Amazon&#8217;s Champions of Fire Invitational</a> – which was a curious addition to the news release – and the curious can help Halfbrick test the game out by <a href="http://ift.tt/2gfMdDf">signing up for the game&#8217;s beta</a>.</p>

<p>What this means for <em>Fruit Ninja</em>&#8216;s paid version, we&#8217;ll hopefully find out soon. We&#8217;ve reached out to Halfbrick for further comment and will update with a response.</p>
