Free Rewards: New Skin, Emotes, and Pickaxe

Who doesn’t love free stuff? This update introduces a brand-new free skin, back bling, emote, and pickaxe as part of the Spring Raid Quests. While the exact launch timing is uncertain, you’ll be able to check in-game once downtime ends.

The free skin comes from the Invincible universe. However, reactions from the community have been mixed:

Despite the lukewarm reception, the free back bling featuring a likable character might be its saving grace. Additionally, players can earn the Hope Pickaxe through upcoming quests.

Gameplay Changes: Siphon Returns and New Exotics

One of the biggest changes in this update is the return of Siphon in Ranked Mode. Players will now receive 75 health over 5 seconds upon eliminating an opponent. This feature has been highly requested and will help increase the pace of ranked matches.

Alongside this, several new weapons are being introduced, including:

Rocket Drills
Pump Dumps
Dual SMG Shotgun
Outlaw Shotgun

New Exotic Weapons have also been leaked, though not all of them are available immediately. Some of the most anticipated ones include:

Lais Shockwave Rocket Launcher: Launches a projectile that causes an impulse explosion.
Slap Cannon: Provides instant energy recovery.
Mammoth Pistol: A powerful new sidearm.

Epic Games has also hinted at revamping the mode, so expect some minor tweaks and improvements.

Additional Changes: Buyable Reboot Cards and Resurrection Buffs
