Subjects,

Update 4.2 is here, a brief update ahead of launch of our mid-Season DLC: The Alien Pack.

Arcane Store

Two new Arcane skins have just arrived in the Arcane Store: Handcuffs & Alex.

Playstation Plus: Fitness Bundle

A brand-new PlayStation Plus bundle is arriving on Tuesday 7th October. Available exclusively to PS Plus subscribers for free, this bundle includes four Legendary-tier items:

‘Jacked’ Jak (Legendary) - bulked-up with muscle to spare

Kettle Bell Ball & Chain (Legendary) – swing heavy, hit harder
Hand Strengthener Knuckle Duster (Legendary) – knock out the competition with precision power
Active-Cam Light Trap (Legendary) – conceal your move, then strike from the shadows

With this addition for PS Plus players, the previous PS Bundle: The Hero Bundle, is now available to all players in the in-game Store.

Not much longer to wait now, our latest DLC is coming in the next update. We hope you have managed to master the Helios Program thus far, because there will soon be an Imposter among us.
