SnapMap’s free updates will include map modules, props & objects, additional features and functionality, AI enhancements, editing tool enhancements and more. Players can also expect new multiplayer game modes in the future.

As well as this, Bethesda also stated that they will release three premium multiplayer DLC packs, with each one costing $14.99/£11.99 per, or alternatively $39.99/£29.99 for all three, if you chose to purchase them via the Season Pass.

The first paid DLC pack has been detailed to include:

  • Three new maps
  • One new weapon
  • One new playable demon
  • One new armour set
  • One new piece of equipment
  • New hack modules and taunts
