The 00 Difficulty Mode and New Game+ Additions

Players looking for tactical scenarios will find new TacSim challenges in the update. The additions include the Jungle Heist mission and high-speed racing chaos in Valhalla Protocol.
Virtual photographers can now use a dedicated photo mode. IO Interactive also included a broad list of general game adjustments and experience fixes in the patch notes.
