A character revamp: Revenant Reborn

Death itself is reborn with a complete overhaul of the Revenant character in Season 18. Alongside a visual update, Revenant is also getting a rework to all of his abilities.

  • Assassin’s Instinct passive skill helps him see low-health enemies. Revenant also has a faster crouch walk and improved wall climbing.
  • Tactical ability Shadow Pounce allows Revenant to close the gap on his prey from a distance.
  • Activating his ultimate Forged Shadows will build a shroud of hardened shadows that blocks damage and regenerates, allowing his shadows and tactical to refresh on knockdowns.

Furthermore, Revenant will be unlocked for all players for the duration of the season. Players who complete a set of challenges before the season ends will also unlock Revenant permanently.
