New World Interactive and Focus Entertainment have deployed Update 1.22 for Insurgency: Sandstorm, titled Operation: Echoes.
Available across PC, PlayStation and Xbox, the update marks the conclusion of the shooter’s Year 4 content roadmap. It introduces two returning submachine guns, visual updates for existing maps, more character customisation options and some paid DLC cosmetic packs.
New SMGs and Map Visual Overhauls
The update expands the player’s weapon roster with two submachine guns, available for all players:
- UM45 for Security
- MP40 for Insurgents
Operation: Echoes also introduces visual overhauls to two of the game’s existing maps, being Power Plant and Hideout. These have both received some love in the form of more detailed interiors and exteriors, as well as refined map geometry.
In addition to the above, there are a couple of new character customisation options, including one new facial hair option, one new moustache and three uniform camos.
Premium Cosmetics and Pricing
Alongside the above free additions, four new paid cosmetic DLC packs have been released:
- Seasoned Warrior Gear Set (Security)
- Remnant Gear Set (Insurgents)
- Woodwork Weapon Skin Set (Security)
- Reclaimed Weapon Skin Set (Insurgents)
These packs are all priced at £2.49 each but are also a part of the 4-Year Anniversary Edition and also the Year 4 Pass.
