Water will play a bigger role in the game, as combatants can swim around and use it as an escape. Firefights can even happen underwater, but the ballistics are a bit different. There’s also a new ledge hanging mechanic that lets users peek above ledges instead of fully mantling over them. Players were shown hanging off a rooftop and firing on those standing on said rooftop, with those hanging being more concealed. Diving also has some lift to it this time around, meaning that it’s possible to dive out of windows in a pinch. However, it can only be used after a tactical sprint. There’s are a ton of new gadgets or old ones that have been improved or balanced, such as the heartbeat sensor which now has a battery so it can’t be used indefinitely.

Gunsmith has also been stepped up, as detailed in the incredibly long post on the game’s site. As shown in its recent trailer, players can now unlock attachment across multiple guns, which should lessen the grind.

Invasion is one of the new multiplayer modes. It takes place on a big map and the only objective is to eliminate other players and the A.I. that roams around like some sort of massive deathmatch. It’s 20-on-20, but each team also has 20 A.I. teammates.

Prisoner Rescue and Knockout are also two new modes. The former has players locating hostages, defending them, and exfiltrating with them. There are no respawns,
