Returning weaponry includes the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret. Speculation abounds regarding the potential return of other weapons from previous heist-themed seasons, such as the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and even the Grappler. However, these remain unconfirmed at this time.
A key new addition is the Smart Building mechanic, anticipating player building needs based on aiming direction. Gameplay will also see keycards replaced by vault breaches, requiring Meltanite (a thermite-like substance) to access the loot within.
