The "Outlaws" Event
Can you hear the roar of engines? See the dust cloud looming down the road? That’s right, the “Outlaws” event is finally in the game, and along with it – a wealth of new content. Check out the dedicated publication to learn the details!
Battle Pass "Legends"
The "Legends" Battle Pass is now available in the game! Waiting for you are the SA Hellion, Benelli M2 SP, Vigilance Rifles A-M20, and Barrett M82A1 available in contracts, 10,000 parts, unique class achievements, and much more.
New Gear Set "Hardcore"
The new gear set "Hardcore" develops the concept of good protection against bullets, but slow regeneration of health and armour. The new armour is specifically designed for PvP and protects against nockdowns. Thus, it can be obtained in contracts completed in Ranked Matches.
Throwing Tomahawk
Effective, deadly, and easy to use at short distance. Yet, it requires some serious in-game skill to use it at mid and long range. The idea is simple: you throw it – you pick it up, regardless whether you managed to strike the opponent or not.
You can install up to two mods of your choice out of 4. With them, you can:
- increase the weapon switching and throwing speeds;
- increase the movement speed with the Tomahawk equipped;
- after an elimination, instantly restore 55 HP and increase movement speed for 2.5 seconds;
- have an extra Tomahawk at your disposal.
Legendary Characters' Suits
Seize the chance to obtain some content that you missed. For instance, the legendary characters “Ursula”, “Oberon” and "Wharton" and their contracts are available for all players again till July 12th.

Aim Assist Tweaks
Considering the meta guns' current stats, the aim assist was most beneficial for the Rifleman and the Engineer. The high-rate-of-fire and quick-ADS SMGs and ARs could quickly kill in the head at long distances. This situation didn't coincide with the class prototypes.
To solve the mentioned issues, we've changed snapping - the AA now draws the aim to the body, not the head.
Weapon Tweaks
- Barrett M82A1 bipod (expanded): reduced the fire rate bonus (from 100% to 66%).
- SIG MPX Copperhead, "Bullet Rain" mod: added distance penalty (2 m).
- SIG MPX Copperhead: the weapon’s recoil (singlet version) has been decreased by 15%.
- Cobalt Kinetics Stealth Pistol (and its skinned versions): the damage multipliers to the head and torso have been increased, and the damage reduction by distance has been reduced. The weapon's specs have been tweaked:
- Increased damage from 88 to 92,
- Increased rate of fire from 720 to 840,
- Increased range from 10 to 11.
Ranked Matches
- The time to reconnect to the match has been extended by 50% (from 3 to 4.5 minutes).
Bug Fixes
Important
- Fixed a bug, due to which mods could not be installed on weapons.
- Fixed a bug, due to which the player could get kicked out in the middle of a match. The issue was on the server side.

- Fixed a bug due to which it was impossible to select certain mines for the Rifleman and the Medic and to use the SED jumper in the Mars Special Operation.

- The game no longer crashes when a player breaks a Molotov when the match ends.
- Improved the display of shotgun damage on the modifications screen. Now you see a total damage scale divided into segments equal to the number of pellets per shot.
- Fixed a bug, due to which the turrets played no sound or showed shooting effects when firing.
PvE and SpecOps
