- Fixed a bug where logging in from another device might accidentally turn on the microphone that was previously turned off.
Maps and Modes

- Enhanced the AFK detection in Doom Match Practice. Now you can chat and enjoy group emotes to your heart’s content without any worries!
Heroes
- Jeff the Land Shark’s Stall Shutdown: We’ve optimized Jeff’s Ultimate Ability to ensure he interacts smoothly with the terrain. If he gets temporarily stuck in a fall and uses his ultimate, he’ll seamlessly transition into the dive phase after some time, complete with an extra audio cue for his ultimate when landing. Now everyone will be aware when Jeff is about to make a big splash!
- Doctor Strange’s Cloak Conundrum: Resolved a bug where Cloak of Levitation would sometimes lead to erratic movement patterns in poor network conditions. Now, with the mystic arts fully aligned, Strange glides through the chaos like a true master of the multiverse!
