AGENT UPDATES

We've conducted a pass on our ability descriptions in-game and on our website for grammar and consistency.

This new feature recognizes your engagement in the game with daily rewards. Every day that you play matches, you'll earn progress on a Checkpoint Track. Each checkpoint on the track yields quantities of XP and our new in-game currency, Kingdom Credits.
Kingdom Credits can be spent on accessories, Agents, and Agent Gear.

Use your Kingdom Credits to purchase cosmetic accessories from previous Battle Passes, including:
- Player Cards
- Sprays
- Titles
- Gun Buddies

The Agent Store streamlines the Agent acquisition process. As always, you can use VP or Recruitment Tokens to unlock an Agent, and now you have a third option: unlocking them with Kingdom Credits.

Each new Agent will have their own Agent Recruitment Event when they are launched. During these events, you'll earn XP towards the new Agent automatically. As well, you won’t be able to unlock the new Agent with Kingdom Credits or Recruitment Tokens, but you can still use VP if you like.

All of your favorite Agent-themed gear is available for Kingdom Credits. For every Agent, there are now 10 Levels of Agent Gear instead of 10 Levels of Agent Contract.
Level 5 used to unlock Agents. However, since we moved Agents into the Agent Store, Level 5 will now grant you a flat amount of Kingdom Credits.

Fixed Chamber’s Rendezvous (E) to interrupt the teleport if you are Suppressed mid animation.
Fixed Yoru’s Gatecrash (E) to interrupt the teleport if you are Suppressed mid animation.
Fixed Omen’s From the Shadows (X) to cancel the teleport if you Suppressed while forming.
Fixed Cypher’s Spycam (E) from being placeable on Lotus’ rotating doors.
Fixed issue where Sage’s Barrier Orb (C) would sometimes rotate multiple times from a single button press when placing it.
Fixed issues where on some map geo Cypher could not pick up his Cyber Cage (C) during the Buy Phase.

Fixed issue where frame rate would decrease when Reyna is healing from Devour (Q).

Fixed an issue where the Chinese Baidu Pinyin input method could only type English in chat.
Fixed a bug where the Push-to-Talk key sometimes allowed for voice to be transmitted even when letting go of the key.

An Agent’s HP number is visible while in Spike Cam perspective.
The red background that displays behind the HP number when an Agent is at critical health may be visible even if the Agent is not in critical health.
