Character Customization
Several new clothing items were added exclusively for the Drop Zone Adversary Mode for both Male and Female characters. Those include cargo pants, bulletproof helmet, woolen gloves, and parachute bags. They are all available in ten different colors; green, orange, purple, pink, red, blue, gray, beige, white, and black. However only four of those colors (green, orange, purple, and pink) are actually used.
Some clothing items remain unused such as two cap variants, fedora, bike helmet, glasses, tie, body armor, and leather jacket - each also available in ten different colors - as well as a SecuroServ hat.
No new items are available for purchase at the clothing stores.
