Important Health Warning: Photosensitive Seizures A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people with no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games. Symptoms can include light-headedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, momentary loss of awareness, and loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents, watch for or ask children about these symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely to experience these seizures. The risk may be reduced by being farther from the screen; using a smaller screen; playing in a well-lit room, and not playing when drowsy or fatigued. If you or any relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.

GEAR BOXES

Gear Boxes are rewards that are earned for leveling up or completing Challenges in both Campaign and Escalation modes. Each Gear Box includes multiple unlocks which may include new Weapons, Weapon Upgrades, T.E.C.H., Abilities, Escalation Characters, and HACKS. Gear Boxes can be opened from the Character Setup menu or from the Pause Menu.

HACKS

HACKS are special items that increase difficulty such as exploding enemies or removing the HUD for an increased amount of XP. Each time you use a HACK, it is then consumed, but you can earn it again through another Gear Box.

TERMINALS

Look for shop terminals as you play. You can use these terminals to equip Weapons, T.E.C.H., Abilities, and HACKS that you’ve unlocked. You can also upgrade your Weapons from these terminals. In Escalation Mode, unlocked items can be obtained at no cost. Locked items can be purchased with Energon Shards.

• T.E.C.H. gives your character additional options during combat, including drones that heal, enemy-seeking mines, XP boosts, and many more. Up to three T.E.C.H. items may be equipped at once and each is consumed upon use. T.E.C.H. can be used in both game modes, but must be purchased in Escalation Mode with Energon Shards.

• Abilities are used to change the Ability that your character uses in Escalation Mode. Only one may be equipped at a time.
