Aftermarket Collection Event

  • Limited game mode, called Flashpoint. It is played in the Canyon of the Kings. All healing items are removed in favor of areas across the map that regenerate both health and armor energy.

  • 24 cosmetic items from the collection inspired by the event.

Meta of Legends

  • Rampart | Increased the rate at which Sheila machine gun dispersion decreases.

  • Bloodhound | Tactical skill refresh rate updated from 6 to 8 seconds when ultimate is activated.

  • Pathfinder | Hook’s refresh rate is now based on the distance Pathfinder has traveled. The minimum hook will have 10 seconds of refreshment, while the maximum has 35. To achieve the greatest distance you will have to swing a lot.

  • Wraith | Updated sprint animation.

  • Crypto | Crypto’s drone can now open equipment chambers if the player has a key in their inventory. Consume a key as usual.

Weapons goal

  • Devotion | Increased the dispersion of the shot from the hip in basic format and while shooting.

  • Spitfire | Scatter increased in the same way as Devotion. Vertical recoil is reduced.

  • Triple Take | Play rate reduced from 1.4 to 1.3.

Quality of life

  • Hover over gear messages now indicate how much damage an armor has accumulated.

  • Now you can change an armor of the same level that has lower health, if it is close to evolving.

  • Equipment messages now include a small indicator that lets you know if a teammate needs that item so you can mark it.

  • Performance Information is a new option that activates a panel at the top right of the screen during games. You will be able to see in real time the rate of frames per second, latency, packet loss on the network, the congestion of the packets on the network and the amount of information sent to and from the server.

  • Anonymous mode has been added to the options. This will hide your name in the champion presentation, posters and other locations of the opponents in real time.

  • Level 0 armor now appears as empty in inventory. This way you can mark it to request one.

  • There are now more posters around the End of the World map to support Crypto’s ability, which sees squads with his drone.

  • Out of bounds | The timer when exiting the map boundaries will not be refreshed when entering again. You will now have a specific time: 30 seconds. If entering a new area, the timer will be consumed. However, if you only have 5 seconds left, the time will regenerate to that mark.

  • Random Favorite Selection has now been added to Music Categories and Loading Screens.

  • Holographic sprays will now remember players who have added a like, and will count them for the owner. This prevents other players from repeating I like you on the graffiti.
