His face is partially concealed by oversized sunglasses, and he is equipped with a camera around his neck, adding an intriguing layer to his character.
The upcoming 1.5 update promises to deliver more than just new costumes. Players with extra Chrono Tokens can exchange them for Units, incentivizing engagement and allowing for the acquisition of free cosmetics. Additionally, a long-requested feature will ensure that players who exit Quick Matches at the end will not be substituted, improving overall user experience. With a wealth of content set to roll out, anticipation is building for the February 21 mid-season update.
