Lunar colony is getting a major update in PTR! In case you did not get the chance to go and take a look for yourself yet, don’t worry! We got your back, so here’s the video for you. You may notice that there is a brand new room dedicated to Specimen 8. There are already theories going about him being the next hero.
As you will also see, the map changed quite a lot. Many physical defenses were added with the new lore items. Also, the last spawn point from the defense was completely reworked as well!
