This map was released on Realms for Minecraft: Java Edition on the 27th of January, 2023. KitPvP is a classic genre of PvP in which you select a set of items from a pre-determined set of loadouts ("kits") and use these items to battle your friends in the arena! With more than 30 kits to choose from, this map is a great way to have fun fighting your friends!

A Final Comment:
Thank you for reading through the description of the overhauled version of this map. Jakob's KitPvP is the first map I've ever published, and I'm over the moon about how many people have downloaded and played it. It's been a couple of years since the first installment, but I've always wanted to give it an overhaul - and here it is. I've changed some of the things that I and others weren't so fond of, and I've added a tonne of new features in addition to updating the map to Minecraft version 1.19.3.
Please let me know in the comments or on Reddit (see link above) if you have any feedback or if you've found an unexpected bug! It's greatly appreciated, and I'll do my very best to fix any issues!
Other than that, there's only one thing left to say: Whether you've just stumbled upon this map for the first time, or you've played the original version, I sincerely hope you'll enjoy it! Have fun, and best of luck in the arena!
