The v6.0 update is set to introduce the FOV slider. The much-requested feature will support FOV adjustment for a host of screen sizes, such as 21/9, 16/9, 32/9, and more. It will also allow players to set a resolution of their choice.

Apart from these changes, the update will introduce new finisher animations for Zoanthropes, Scarab Occult Terminators, and Rubric Marines. Players will also be able to upgrade their Master-Crafted and Artificer Armoury Data to Relic by trading them. Additionally, they will be able to sell their Armoury Data to get more Requisition Points.

Players will also be able to play a new difficulty mode with cosmetic rewards such as the bloodstained knife and a new pauldron. However, they will need to complete at least one operation in lethal difficulty to access this new level.

Additionally, the update introduces a new PvP Crossplay Toggle, as well as emotes to allow players to better express themselves.
