- A new Limited Time Mode “World Run” is active
- The Infinity Blade returns
- Changes to the B.I.E.S.T.

Retail Row is back – Map changes and zombies
Where is the location? Where Mega Mall used to stand, you will now find Retail Row.
What’s new there? In Retail Row, you will encounter many monsters that will attack you. You can shoot them around the shopping center.
The monsters drop weapons or ammunition when you eliminate them. There will be no monsters outside of Retail Row.
New LTM “World Run” – What is that?
How many players? This game mode is designed for 16 players.
How is it played? In World Run, the goal is to become the world’s best runner. The first team to collect 30 gold coins wins.
There are a total of 4 teams.
Weapons and items – Mech changes
The Infinity Blade returns: Epic brings the Infinity Blade out of the vault. However, it will only be available in the Team and Duos LTM Sword Fight. The environmental damage has been adjusted from 10,000 to 600 damage.
Changes to the mechs: A target laser now appears when players charge and fire rockets. Shooters and other players can see the laser.
This aims to make it easier to see where the rockets are heading before they fire. This makes dodging easier.
- The acoustic and visual feedback of the self-destruction sequence has been improved
- You can now enter a mech directly from the glider
- In large team modes, mechs now spawn during the storm phase, not just afterward
- A mech will only survive in the storm for 30 seconds
- If there is no player in the mech for 15 seconds, the mech will become visible on the minimap

- You can now collect the Battle Stars from week 1 and 2
- A timer on the bush item has been revised
- The smoke from supply drops should now be displayed correctly
- Trees maintain their desired appearance when taken down and no longer transform into other trees
- Chests should no longer be broken or opened at the start of a match
- The message “Welcome to Tilted Town” should disappear as intended after a while and not remain permanently
