Changes since the trial include:

- Diffuse button for the Predator Self Destruct sequence easier to interact with
- Increased difficulty with the Self Destruct puzzle
- Predator target isolation will no longer start at 100% at the match start
- Ability to switch weapons while transitioning in Predkour and made changes to various elements of the weapons, like damage
- Updated the walking/running footstep attenuation to make the Predator stealthier
- Crossplay is now enabled by default
- Voice mic mute is no longer enabled by default
- Performance issues and tuning on-going
