Notable quotesEdit
- "You're going up against Gruber. He's one of the only slaves to win in the Hole. There's only ever been... what? Three? I guess he got a taste for blood. But unfortunately for you, he's got a pretty decent gun. So, odds are, this is the last time you and I will be talking." – Faydra, describing Gruber
- "And now, this slave has proven willing to kill and die for her freedom! But how will she fare against the man who made it all the way: Gruber! Undefeated in the Hole, Gruber has yet to meet his match. Only one will walk out with their freedom! Only one will walk out alive! Release the barrels! GO!" – Arena announcer

Behind the scenesEdit
When translated in German, Grube means, "pit." A Gruber is, in rather old German, someone "working in a pit" or more literally someone working in a mine.
