New Takedown Map: Simulation Anomaly

Battle Royale

• Added a Last Man Standing announcement which plays when youre the only one alive on your team

• Added a new Point of Interest to Glacier

• Added invisible walls around the outer bounds of each biome to prevent flying out of bounds

Arena

• Added the ability to rejoin a match in progress after leaving or being disconnected

• Added and adjusted a number of portal walls on Bypass

Balance Changes

  • Now also grants immunity from debuffs, such as stuns or slows, while the ability is active

• (Meridian) Phasma SMG

  • Reduced the speed at which shots grow by 50%
