Key Updates and Optimizations
1. New Mode: Distorted Valley
The Valley by the Floranpino Beach is a great tourist attraction with excellent scenery. People used to come to the beach during vacations. Villas, yachts, and cruise ships are scattered along the coastline. After several wars, it is prosperous no more. Strange rumors have recently been circulating in Kamona that two completely different natural landscapes have appeared in the Valley.
Event Rules:
a) As an unknown substance spreads through the Valley, numerous anomalies unexplainable by current science are emerging in the area. The Valley map will now feature the Distorted Valley mode.
b) After entering the raid, you will be given a choice between one of four special abilities. If no choice is made, the system will randomly assign an ability to you.
Special Abilities:
Blindsight
Cast out a mass of blinding matter that impairs the vision of enemy operators who look directly at it from within its range. Eliminating an enemy operator resets its cooldown.
Transcend
Briefly detach from reality and enter the Transcend state. In this state, movement speed is increased, and you cannot attack or be attacked.
Reconstruct
Deploy a wall that stops bullets and throwables but allows players to pass through.
Sprawling
Deploy an Erosion Trap. When triggered, it briefly disorients enemy operators. Or link up with a teammate. When linked and within range, both of you gain continuous regeneration and stimulated effects.
c) Eerie bells ring at specific moments in the Valley during raids, and players will gain a mysterious buff while it rings. Meanwhile, some extraction points will gradually begin closing, and anomalies in the Valley will appear more frequently. Some large anomalies may yield surprising rewards. As your time in the Valley increases, you must decide whether to extract early or explore the anomalies further. We hope this special investigation allows you to enjoy a brand-new raid experience.

2. Raid Experience Improvements
New: Proximity Voice Chat
Players can communicate with players from other squads within a certain range during raids. This feature can be enabled or disabled in the in-game settings.
Improved Sprint and Jump Animations
Your weapon muzzle will aim forward while sprinting and jumping.
New Interactive Miscellaneous Items
When you come across a Lyre or Lute, you can interact with them to play music in-game. We plan to add more interactive content like this in the future and hope you enjoy it.

3. New Mode: Boss Rally
In the Tactical Ops, Forbidden Zone raids in Northridge and Farm have a chance to trigger the Boss Rally event. When triggered, multiple bosses will spawn on the map. Some bosses will have an enhanced guard detail, better equipment, and employ more seasoned tactical coordination. Whether you seize opportunities amid the clashes between bosses or team up to counter their coordinated attacks, we hope this update brings more tactical choices and fun to every raid.

4. New Event Mode: Warlord Tournament (Its schedule will be publicized in a future announcement)
Event Rules:
a) You can team up with friends or use matchmaking to participate in the Warlord Tournament and start raids on designated maps.
b) The tournament features a brand-new Warlord Tournament ranking, which is upgraded based on points earned.
c) During the matchmaking preparation phase, teams can view the information and loadouts of all other teams in the raid.
d) Once in the raid, points are awarded based on the total loot value of each team. The points and rankings of the top four teams are displayed in real-time.
e) When the raid ends or all players have extracted, teams are ranked based on the total loot value brought out (including Retrieval Devices), and the corresponding Warlord Tournament rank points are awarded.

5. New Event Mode: No Man's Land
How to Play:
a. During the event, players can claim 3*7 No Man's Land Passes from the event screen.
b. Use a No Man's Land Pass to enter No Man's Land. Inside No Man's Land, players can only use the weapons and equipment provided by the system.
c. Players can enter the raid solo or within a squad. No other players or teams will appear in the match.
d. Enemy difficulty is slightly increased, and Bosses will not spawn.
e. Complete the raid and reach the extraction point to extract.

Apr. 2, 05:00 – Apr. 23, 04:59 (UTC+0)
