The Japanese drone pilot receives a new parcel of corrective gear with the Steel Moving ridge update, according to a leaked video posted to Reddit by /u/TE-Ghoul. The Tenkamusou skin, roughly translating to "warrior," features a full anime-style ninja makeover, swapping out his tactical gear for period armor embellished with gold detailing.
