Whether you’re returning to the competitive VR shooter or looking to get into it for the first time, it’s worth taking a look at the VAIL VR 1.1 patch notes. So, let’s go ahead and find out what new bits of content AEXLAB has cooked up for the game.
VAIL VR Update 1.1 Patch Notes
Here’s a look at what’s included in the VAIL VR patch 1.1 update:
Prestige System
Players at the max level can now continue to earn in-game rewards like legendary skins and animated emblems through prestige. Aside from reaching max level, players must also be in a matchmaking server in the shuttle between games to access this new feature.
The first tier of prestige is called Cyberwarfare with more planned for future updates.
Gun Game
A new game mode where scoring kills will swap out your current weapon. Every player will start with an AK12 and wield a knife as their final challenge.
Gun Game can be played on all free-for-all maps.
One in the Chamber
Another new mode where you start the game with one bullet in the chamber, a knife, and three lives. Eliminating enemies will reward you with extra ammo. The last person standing wins the match.
This mode can also be played on all free-for-all maps.
New Hardpoint Maps
Hardpoint makes its way to two of VAIL VR’s larger maps, Khidi and Maar. The objectives on these maps will focus on areas that don’t see much action in other modes like the museum in Khidi.
Kanto Progression
A new challenge has been issued to be the first to unlock all of the new knife skins for the Kanto knife progression. The knife now has 20 unlockable skins, and some of them won’t be easy to obtain.
