Heute wollen die Boss Key Productions und Nexon den Patch 1.3 für den Mehrspieler-Shooter LawBreakers anbieten. Und das Update wird nach Informationen von Gamespot einige größere Veränderungen mit sich bringen: So wird z.B. die Rollenverteilung in jedem Team limitiert und nur noch zwei Spieler können innerhalb eines Teams die gleiche Rolle annehmen. Hier beschreitet man also einen ähnlichen Weg, den Blizzard bereits bei Overwatch eingeschlagen hat.

"Wir gehen davon aus, dass unsere Entscheidung, das Rollen-Limit auf zwei zu beschränken, uns bei der Weiterentwicklung der gewerteten Versus-Partien helfen wird. Gleichzeitig testen wir es hinter den Kulissen für die kommende Veröffentlichung. Wie immer hören wir auf das Feedback der Fans. Also lasst uns wissen, wie ihr es findet", heißt es seitens der Entwickler.

An der Balance werden im Update 1.3 keine Veränderungen vorgenommen, allerdings könnte nach weiteren internen Tests auch in diesem Bereich noch geschraubt werden. Allerdings darf man die Karte "Promenade" jetzt auch bei Nacht erleben und mit einem XP Bonus Tracker seine Erfolge besser im Blick behalten. Zudem gibt es die üblichen Bugfixes und kleinere Änderungen. Hier die komplette Übersicht der Patch Notes.
