Hey everyone, please find the patch notes for today's update below.

New Features & Major Changes

New Region: Midtown Harbour (East)

Midtown Harbour has been added as a playable region on Teardrop, located south of Little Kyiv and west of Marshlands and Saltie.

New Cyberlimb: MaxiGun

This heavy cyberarm isn’t built for finesse, but high firepower comes at a cost. Overuse it, and it might just leave you stranded at the worst possible moment.

Battle for control of DJ booths across the island, dominate the zone, and earn loot and XP.
The leading team controls the tunes playing on the DJ booth. (Zeroes start with a default tune but can find more in HEXes and equip them via the Appearance tab.)

The Nuestros Diablos gang has set up shop in Midtown Harbour’s Admin Block.
If you’re looking for extra loot and rare HEXes, pay them a visit.
