Reload animation, shooting sounds, kill badge, finisher, effects, the whole deal. Finally a skin like the Prime Vandal but for Phantom.

Too bad they don't have variants though :/

Edit: here's a showcase of the skins https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76QpcBJCl0E&ab_channel=Eevux

It has Variants.

Can't they?

No, they can't. All skin effects are in first person only for competitive integrity. So your allies and enemies just see the model. It would be cool to show it off, but it doesn't outweigh the gameplay impact of your allies/enemies hearing different sounds.

Can you tell which all colors will be there as the variants ?

I can't! But if you want to guess 3 colors, I'll say if you got 1 right. Deal?

I love the design of the guns and all but it’s disappointing that the knife has the default animation. Do you guys not realize how many more people would buy this if it had an M9 bayonet-type animation or SOMETHING different? Any knife premium+ should have a different equip animation than the default melee. I have never played a game that charges $35 or $50 for a recolored default knife.

So we realize that some people like the default animations and want to make sure those people have options for skins on the default knife animation set. That's why we want to give them a new model change with effects and audio. We've done lots of different melees, like with Oni, Elderflame, Glitchpop, etc. so we also want to give some love to those who love the base melee set too.

wow. I thought they looked like crap at first but those effects...

No variants is a bit of a shame, would have loved a red version or a rainbowy kind of version.

There are variants.

Ah you've got me so damn excited to try these skins out in-game. They look so amazing, and I'm such a huge fan of the dark-star aesthetic. Can't wait to send my opponents into a black hole. I remember the reaver OP have a different colored finisher based on whether it was purple or red. Any word on whether the finisher will change based on the variant for the singularity skins?

Also, I saw one of the variants in the video that you and Sean did on Hitscan. I won't reveal which one it is, but DAMN they look nice. Thanks for all of your hard work. The fact that you can make fantasy-driven skins tat don't obstruct the flow of a tactical shooter still blows my mind, and they keep looking better and better. My best regards to you and the team.

Oh my god that’s the nicest comment ever. I can’t tell you how hard our team works to push the skin fantasies while still staying fair to competitive integrity. It’s actually pretty damn hard!

Sadly, no alt colors on Finishers yet. It’s something we want to do but our team is really small and they’re all already working to max capacity. :(

Also, glad you like that little tease. That’s my favorite Singularity variant too. ;)
