Limited-Time Modes
We're waiting to see if the event will introduce a new limited-time mode, but Shrugtal has leaked a new "Prize Tracker".
- 5 Battle Pass Levels
- 2 Charms (Never Surrender and Thermite Grenade)
- Epic Rampart Skin: Cytokinetic
- Epic 30-30 Repeater Skin: Incan Prophecy
- Rare crypto Skin: Broken Syntax
- Caustic Trackers
Check out the game's new modes below:
Killing Time:
Every time a player is eliminated, the rounds speed up.
Auto Banners:
Automatically receive teammates' respawn banners when they go down, more mobile respawn beacons.
Armor Regen:
Armor will automatically regenerate after not receiving damage for a period, but this means no shield cells in the loot pool.
Flare Up:
Ring flares are back, but come and go much faster.
Armoured Drop:
This mode will let players drop in with level 1 armour and helmet, a few supplies, and a RE-45 with full attachments.
Second Chance:
The first time you're eliminated, you'll come right back in a dropship. You'll also keep your gear.
Ultrazones:
The map is covered in hot zones and flashpoints, meaning better loot. Armour also regenerates.
