Trivia

Development

• Initially, there were three other weapon variants ("EMEA", "Pacific" and "Americas" - identical to VCT LOCK//IN Collection's variants) for the Vandal skin shown in concept art made by Denis Lakhanov, but it was ultimately scrapped before its final release.
• There were at least 9 iterations for the Melee skin before its final release.
