The first major content patch for Project Powder is now live. The competitive online snowboard racing game is currently in open beta; anyone can register and play for free at playprojectpowder.com .

Players can now take on a challenging new course, a mirrored version of Smallpox Part 1, or spend their PRO (Project Powder's in-game currency) on 27 new in-game items, including new snowboards and character-specific gear for Ross, Beth, and Max. The new patch also introduces the anticipated "CBT Hoodie," a special permanent item reserved for all players that reached level 5 during Project Powder's closed beta test.
