After an extensive review, vertical recoil on all weapons will match their expected power level. In an effort to bring balance to the game overall, Siege's recoil system has been overhauled. Look for the Impact EMP Grenade to be added to the arsenals of Blackbeard, Montagne, Dokkaebi, Nokk, Gridlock, Sledge, Lion, and Osa. This can prove devastating to those who have set up intricate defenses. The Impact EMP Grenade is a throwable object that will explode as soon as it lands, but rather than damage opponents, it will instead temporarily deactivate nearby devices. In terms of features, expect to find an all-new gadget that can be used across eight Operators. It'll also be possible to go outside the interior in order to explore the stadium's field and bleachers. Previously used for the esports crowd, the new Stadium Bravo map will combine elements of the Border and Coastline map, bringing together the best of both locations for a more invigorating experience. No, it isn't Grim's native Singapore, which was previously delayed. There's also Wamai, whose Mag-NET can catch any incoming canisters and redirect them before they can land in their intended spot.Īnother noteworthy addition to Operation Brutal Swarm is a new map. Aruni's Surya Gate can catch any canisters that are carelessly flying by and destroy them. Mute is the hardest counter, able to use his Signal Disruptors to completely jam Grim's canisters and prevent them from deploying. There are, of course, a few counters to Grim and, more specifically, his Kawan Hive Launcher. In fact, since Grim's kit includes a Breach Charge, it's possible to come in from above, blow a ceiling hatch, and drop in a Kawan Hive Launcher canister to expose any enemies who may be below. Of course, given Grim's more aggressive style, it's also possible ot just fire it directly into nearby room and expose anyone hiding inside. The Kawan Hive Launcher's canister is small enough that it can be placed on the ground and can trigger the moment an enemy steps into its proximity. The bees won't attack Defenders directly, but they will track their location and give their position away to any Attackers. It fires off a swarm of microbots that are essentially robotic bees.

Grim's new gadget is the Kawan Hive Launcher.

It can basically be summed up in the following gif. He has much lower health than his compatriots, but he makes up for that with speed, power, and his unique new gadget. His approach will prove every bit as aggressive as his physique, as he'll bring along his 552 Commando rifle and SG-CQB shotgun. Nighthaven Agent Charlie Tho Keng Boon will be better known to players as Grim.
