MAPS
MAP UPDATES
» REBIRTH ISLAND «
- Hellspawn Variant
- The hellmouth has opened over Rebirth Island, transforming it into a gore-soaked nightmare. Devilish tentacles, a blood-red ocean, and crimson vegetation now dominate the landscape. Venture into the prison and lighthouse to encounter foul anomalies and ominous shadows. The Factory and Dockyards are filled with unnatural red waters and fleshy growths. Lightning crackles as grotesque sights and eerie threats await around every corner. Enter Hellspawn if you dare.
» VONDEL «
- Vondel Night Variant
- Night falls on Vondel, casting shadows over the city and its canals. Battle from the Castle to the Cruise Terminal, navigating the waterways under moonlight. While visibility is good under the city lights, beware of the undead terrors lurking throughout.
MODES
NEW LIMITED-TIME MODES
- Purgatory
- There’s lots of fun to be had in Purgatory, a new squad-based LTM taking place on the Rebirth Island Hellspawn map variant featuring a sandbox setting where squads can battle and complete objectives at their own pace.
- Custom Loadouts are always available, and all Operators receive infinite respawns.
- The mode supports a variety of interesting mechanics to enjoy during your long stay, including:
- Insane Powerups: Purgatory features excellent loot including powerful Weapon Blueprints and plentiful Killstreaks. Find and equip super weapons from the Arcade mode and gain enhanced abilities from Mutation.
- Portals: Peer into the image of a portal to see where it will take you. Step inside to transport there.
- Flying Shipment: In this strange environment, Shipment flies over the island on a drivable platform, accessible via parachute, helicopter, and by portal.
- Chill in the Safe Zone: Move into designated Safe Zones to take a break from combat and chill with other Operators. Safe Zones are easily identified by the translucent dome enclosing them. Inside the dome, Operators enter third-person perspective and are unable to deal or receive damage.
- Torment Level: Eliminating enemies increases your Torment Level. The higher your Torment Level, the more XP you earn per elimination. But the advantage comes at a cost: as your Torment Level increases, so does your presence on the enemy minimap, increasing your visibility to enemy players.
- Scare Packages: Dropped in various locations throughout the match, Scare Packages include powerful loot and some unexpected side effects. Seek them out and roll the dice...
- Terriball: You’ll need to be quick on your feet around Terriballs. They spawn around the map and are found in Scare Packages, too. Shoot, melee, or run into a Terriball to send it flying, instantly eliminating any Operator it hits.
- Squads can achieve a victory condition. Eliminate enemies and commend your peers to progress during your stay in the afterlife.
- Duration: 4 Weeks
- Map: Hellspawn
- Zombie Royale
- Fall and rise again as the undead in Zombie Royale. Eliminated Operators will become zombies, giving you the chance to seek revenge while taking out any other living Operators you encounter on the way. Zombies gain unique abilities like faster movement speed, stronger melee attacks, advanced vision, a charged jump and more.
- Duration: 4 Weeks
- Maps: Hellspawn (Weeks 1 & 2), Vondel Night (Weeks 3 & 4)
