There is a Queen’s Codex event that is starting with this update. It has free and paid rewards. One of the big ones is a Symbiote skin for The Thing.
Gameplay is also getting changes. A new map called Throne of Knull is being added. They are making penalties tougher for players who quit ranked matches early. Chat moderation is improved too, so less spam and toxic stuff.
Another thing is Twitch Drops . If you watch certain streams, you can get a Mantis costume. Just watch, and it will drop into your account.
