[New Features]

1. [New Ranked Mode] Officially Launched

The Underground City has revamped the assessment of Firefly prowess, introducing the fresh Ranked Mode! Gather your friends for a thrilling competitive face-off! And fret not if your pals are offline, as dependable teammates await in your ranked operations.

 

[Thrilling Team Battles]

In the new Ranked Mode, Fireflies will be divided into two factions for 5v5 team battles.

During the battle, no equipment will drop after you're knocked out. With unlimited Returns, you can challenge the enemies without any pressure!

 

[New Evacuation Mode]

In the new Ranked Mode, team cooperation has become the key to victory. Trust your teammates and fight alongside them.

The team can call for a rescue helicopter after collecting enough Battle Cards. Once the helicopter arrives, retrieve the Team Backpack and protect it for a specified duration to successfully evacuate.

If the battle goes into Overtime, the wide with more Battle Cards will claim the victory.

 

[Protect the Team Backpack]

In the new Ranked Mode, all Fireflies cannot bring their Backpacks into the Operation from the Shelter. The Underground City has prepared Team Backpacks for each team in the Exclusion Zone. Battle Cards can only be stored in the Team Backpack and cannot be placed in the Tactical Saddlebag. Only when a team member carries the Team backpack can all the team members pick up the Battle Cards. All the Cards picked up will be automatically stored in the Team Backpack. If the enemy eliminates the Team Backpack carrier, your team will lose all the Battle Cards, so please proceed with caution.

 

[Try Your Luck at Battle Card Roll]

After the successful evacuation, there is an exciting session: Battle Card Roll.

During this session, the Battle Cards picked up by the team will be distributed through the Roll. The Battle Cards will be randomly divided based on the number of team members, and each player will have 1 chance to draw. Try your luck and keep ranking up!

The drawing chance can be gifted to other teammates. Players cannot gift again after gifting or receiving a gifted chance.

 

[New Return Mechanics]

In the new Ranked Mode, there are new Return mechanics. Now, upon loading into the battlefield, Fireflies will become invincible for 1.5s. During this period, Fireflies can still use Weapons. Also, your HP and the Durability of your Armor and Helmet will not be deducted.

2. [New Ranked Mode] Season Reward Reworked!

*Explore new Ranked Mode Rewards and Bounty Store Rewards*

Reaching the Dragon Rank will not only bring you endless glory, but also precious rewards such as Limited Outfit, Limited Spray Cans, and advanced battle supplies!

Come reach Dragon and get all the rewards!

3. [Operator Preview]

*Fatini the Desert Fox and Anthony the Wild Bear will meet everyone soon!*

These two heroes, who have made great contributions to the post-apocalypse exploration of Kaido, will accept the invitation of the Fireflies, giving you a chance to experience the world from their perspectives.

Operators have various Outfit Packs, each containing multiple Accessories. Fireflies will be able to customize the appearance and even modify the color of the Operators according to their preferences.

4. [Merchant Relationship Preview]

*Level up the Relationships with Merchants and receive special assistance in battles*

Fireflies will be able to level up Relationships with the Merchants by completing specific Main Missions. Once the Relationship reaches a certain level, Fireflies can request special characters to come and assist them in specific situations during the Operation.

Merchants' trust is hard-earned, so please avoid actions that may upset them, such as eliminating their friends who come to help you.

 

[Combat Adjustments]

New feature: Weapon Disarm. Now Fireflies can disarm opponents at close range. When disarming, the action will be considered a success if the opponent fails to pass the QTE check. You can customize the QTE button order to give your opponent a hard time.

 

[Marauder Adjustments]
[New Boss Preview]

*A new Boss, Lyons, is ready to meet you in Mt. Akiyama!*

*As a lone wolf, Lyons is cautious by nature, never letting anyone cover for him. He lurks around Villa in Mt. Akiyama alone, watching every invader through the scope of his sniper rifle. Sometimes, Lyons will add a Thermal Imaging Scope to his sniper rifle.
