Alongside the new content, players can enjoy major quality-of-life additions like Rig and Knife Customization, Loadout Presets, Mastery Tasks , and extensive reworks to both Escalation and Invasion .

Reagents will bring “cruel and unusual” back to the living conditions of the prison population until riot makes way for revenge, while avoiding the latest member of our experimental population: The Biter.
You are freedom. The indefinable promise that keeps prisoners at the grindstone that turns authority to profit and back again. Don’t let false authority stand in the way of real capital. Kill the Warden, and we will let you out.
This update introduces Reagents to our newest member of the experimental population, The Biter. These psycho-sadists, former forced labor inmates incapacitated through acts of self-mutilation as protest, have been physically repaired and mentally destroyed by Murkoff’s doctors and scientists.
This new Ex-Pop will be featured in Prison Farm, and the 2 new MK-Challenges released during Project Boneyard.
You are the master, whose property is the purpose of the law. Salary reminds enforcement that their monopoly of violence only exists for your monopoly of capital. Collect the bribes, pay the judges, and we will let you out.
Invasion is getting a major rework, more details about this will be provided in the full Patch Notes on July 14th.
