New Takedown Map: Simulation Anomaly
Battle Royale
Added a “Last Man Standing” announcement which plays when you’re 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

Balance Changes
(Aeros) Rush Ability
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%
Reduced the maximum size of shots by 20%
Dev Note: Because the Phasma is not a hitscan weapon, its projectiles grow as they travel. These changes make it slightly harder to hit shots at longer ranges without impacting the weapon’s performance at close-range or overall damage
