BERLIN -- Feb. 23, 2023 -- The Cycle: Frontier’s third season is coming soon, and YAGER is planning on making it a blast with the introduction of MK II weapons. Unlike the current arsenal of weapons that can be bought or crafted on Prospect Station, these exciting new arms can only be found on Fortuna III, rewarding players for good play and exploration. This new system will help the game expand its variety of weapons across the board, making rarer weapons more available to players while filling in gaps in the current line-up.
You can learn all about MK II weapons in today’s new developer update video.
