- Some Agent bug fixes.
- A fix for some door/ability interactions on Summit.
GLHF and see you all on the server!
ALL PLATFORMS
AGENTS UPDATES
Phoenix
- Overall we are happy with the state of Phoenix's balance. This is a small touch to address the frequency with which he is able to cast his ultimate to be more in line with other characters.
- Ultimate points increased from 6 to 7.
MODES UPDATES
RETAKE
- Split, Corrode, and Lotus are being added to the map pool for RETAKE.
AROS: Replication
- All Random One Site: Replication will no longer be released in this update. We don’t take these decisions lightly as we know a lot of you were looking forward to this mode. We are still targeting a future release date and will let you know when we have more to share.
