As you may know, when you first boot up the game you’re sent to a tutorial area that introduces you to the core mechanics of the game, as well as its weapons. And you can revisit this area whenever you’d like, but it’s limited and restrictive. And so since launch players have been asking for something similar, but with less limitations. And that’s what Respawn is set to deliver. You can check out the new Firing Range, below (6:46):
Season 3 has been a big season for the game so far, adding a new character, and a replacing King’s Canyon with a new map. In other words, this simply seems like a continuation of that. It may not seem like a big addition, but this is the type of addition that will go a long way with hardcore fans.
