Passive: Deal double damage to enemies under Fear Enemies under Fear cannot attack and will retreat. Ultimate: Put nearby enemies into a state of Fear. Garron Paduk excels at crowd control, using his Fear ability to push enemies back and create space for his team. All new Heroes are playable in Arcade however, they use existing abilities/loadouts. In Operation 4, Paduk is the only character to be playable in PvE with a new Ultimate ability.


The good news is in Operation 5, you will finally be able to play with whatever character and class combination you want. We know this has impacted our PVE players as they are able to play as characters without any Hero abilities. This enabled us to ramp up the production and get more characters in your hands sooner. For example, you can choose how to unlock Dom – do you earn him by playing through the Tour or do you by pick up his ‘base’ version in the Store?Īs we’ve recently announced, we’ve eliminated (mostly – see below) the requirement for characters to launch with unique Ultimate and Arcade abilities.

Beginning today, anytime you get a character skin they are immediately playable. New to Operation 4, we’ve changed how you unlock characters. Operation 4 brings six new characters – the most we’ve dropped at a single time in Gears 5.
