Agent Updates

  • Added new Reyna Voiceover Lines and interaction lines with Gekko, Chamber, and KAY/O

  • Updated Harbor’s in-game portrait for better gameplay readability and quality consistency.

• The weapon that Yoru’s Fakeout (C) echo equips should now use a more accurate weapons skin.
• Killjoy spent some time in the workshop hammering out bugs that were causing her Turret (E) to aim at the ground. (Fixed in Patch 6.09)
• Fixed a rare issue where you can see ghost enemies when they’ve entered line of sight.
