Year 6: Shades of Red
Keener has given himself up and is now in custody at the White House.
A bargain is struck: before we can learn what he knows, we must work with him to locate and secure the other members of his team. Starting with Theo Parnell.
But the Master of ANNA does not trust us. To find him, we will need to play his games to learn who he really is. With each challenge revealing a new facet of his personality and motivations.
His tech mastery over ANNA and ISAC will prove a great challenge, but also a chance to learn more about his humanity, and the special place he has helped build in Brooklyn.
Introducing Seasonal Modifiers
New to the game moving forward, Seasonal Modifiers introduce a fresh twist on traditional rules and mechanics, becoming central to the unique gameplay of each season. There are four distinct types of modifiers — Global, Active, Passive, and Hostile — each playing a crucial role in shaping player experience.
Global Season Modifier: Point Blank
Each season introduces a unique Global Modifier that defines the season’s theme. This season, the focus is on range. The Global Modifier, "Point Blank", gives you bonus damage based on how close you are to your enemies. The greater the distance, the higher the bonus.
Seasonal Journey
A new, revamped progression system is now available this season. The Seasonal Journey is accessible to everyone for the entire duration of the season and consists of a series of missions, each containing a challenge-style objective for players to complete.
Complete the entire journey to earn various rewards, including a unique cosmetic item, XP, Season Pass XP, progression-boosting items, resources, and active modifiers.
Manhunt Scouts & Master Climax Missions
This exciting new system will drive the game’s narrative by requiring players to complete weekly activities that yield rewards such as equipment, XP, materials, and new collectibles. Each week, Agents can tackle a Scout, which consists of three different activities. To unlock each activity you’ll need to solve a riddle.
Finally, near the end of the season, players who have completed all the Scouts and defeated the Prime Target of the Season can access the brand-new Master difficulty. This new difficulty offers a higher level of challenge, and players will earn special rewards, including a unique Exotic item.
