== Console ==
=== Gyro Controls ===
Switch and PS4 Players may now activate Gyro Control functionality in the Controls section of the Options Menu! Gyro is the next level of player-to-game interface and has strong advantages over the traditional console control scheme. The range of motion and responsiveness of a players wrists outclasses that of a players thumbs, a fact that Gyro controls makes apparent once a player is accustomed to the mechanics. Paladins is the first multiplayer game to support Gyro Controls on PlayStation 4!
*Gyro Control Functionality
**Allows the player to move their camera by physically moving the game controller
**The sensitivity of Gyro Controls allows players to easily fine-tune their aim
**Players trying Gyro Controls for the first time should be patient and play many matches to develop their reflexes and aiming capability
**Experienced users may adjust their X and Y axis Gyro sensitivity

== General ==
=== Dark Tides Event Ending ===
The Dark Tides event will come to a close with the release of 1.8. Players who have not spent their Vault Key will have it converted into Iron Madam Inara.

=== VFX/Music Skin Tech ===
The VFX and Music technology used for Raeve Maeve has undergone several improvements to VFX visual fidelity and consistency of audio feedback.

Equipping the EDM Weapons from Jenos, Strix, and Maeve will modulate the brightness of non-EDM skin effects to the beat of the Weapon music.

=== Gifting ===
