Key Updates and Optimizations
1. New Map: Airport
The Guoyapos International Airport, located in southern Guoyapos, is a modern aviation hub. Initially, the airport mainly served tourists from abroad. As the war progressed, it was used by both sides as a provisional frontline command center and was militarized accordingly.
Map Introduction:
a) The Airport map includes areas such as the Freight Center, Exhibition, Fuel Storage, Parking Lot, Ticket Hall, and Control Tower. The varied terrain across these areas will require diverse tactical decisions and offer a more dynamic combat experience.
b) In the Lockdown Zone, the Airport map will contain 7 electronic safes, 7 encrypted safes, 1 regular safe, 2 Strong Boxes, and 13 small safes. In the Forbidden Zone, the number of encrypted safes and Strong Boxes will be even greater.
c) Many new map mechanics have been added to the Airport, including collecting model airplanes to activate a lucky slot machine (which guarantees a gold miscellaneous item), password decryption to access hidden areas, and using specific methods to access new routes. We hope this new content will enrich your experience in raids.
d) In addition to the conventional extraction points, the Airport will feature new Collaboration and Special Mission Extraction Points. You can choose the most optimal route to extract safely based on your objectives.
e) The variety of lootable containers has been expanded to include car trunks, trash cans, biscuit tins, and small safes. Additionally, lootable items can now be found on building walls, which we hope will make looting more enjoyable.
In addition to the new map, we've also added several encrypted safes and small safes to all other maps for you to discover.
2. New Mode: Encrypted File
We've added the Encrypted File mode to the main modes for increased fun and unpredictability in raids. Encrypted Files will have a chance to appear on all main mode maps, with a higher chance of appearing in Lockdown and Forbidden Zone modes.
Event Rules:
a) If the Encrypted File has spawned, you will receive a notification upon entering the raid, and the raid's unique Encrypted File can be found in the container indicated on the map.
b) Looting the Encrypted File will intermittently reveal your position to all players on the map.
c) If the Encrypted File has not been found within 10 minutes of the raid, its location will be revealed on the map.
d) Once an Encrypted File is brought out, the player and their teammates will all receive an Encrypted File in their mail, which can be used at the Intel Broker section of the Store to draw coins and Vinson Diamonds.
3. New Weather: Snowy Northridge
Kamona Weather Bureau Advisory: Northridge is about to experience its heaviest snowfall in years. It's expected to be the worst storm this winter, so stay warm out there! Not only will the snow cover Northridge in a unique wintery landscape, it brings new challenges for operations in the area. As the blanket of snow thickens on the ground, you'll start leaving more tracks behind. In addition, the low temperatures have frozen the lake's surface, making it possible to cross and explore new areas on its surface. However, the extraction points near the water will be affected. Perhaps this time, you'll have to make your escape across the ice.
4. New Mode: Northridge Hotel: Melee-Only Combat
We are introducing a new melee-only combat mode so you can freely experience the diverse melee weapons available in the Dark Zone and enjoy some pure melee combat. Now, victory is just a few steps away! Enjoy a new and exciting experience with melee-only combat!
Event Rules:
a) Loot and extract via extraction points in free-for-all raids, where only attacking with melee weapons is permitted.
b) No equipment is required to join this mode, and the usage of Cases and keys in your keychains is prohibited. All players will use identical equipment provided by the system and can loot items such as throwables and Universal Keys during raids.
c) The Melee Mode will disable the Case, but after defeating a player, permission can be unlocked to use the Supplies Retrieval Device on the map.
**Please keep an eye on future announcements for more details on the availability of the Melee-Only Combat mode.
5. New Mode: Gold Bounty Assault-TV Station
This is an arena for the strong. Valuable containers including secret air drops, encrypted safes, and small safes will appear throughout the map (secret air drops will at least contain one Gold Bounty collectible), which will greatly increase the availability of valuable loot. Eliminate all your enemies to become the final winner and take it all!
**Please keep an eye on future announcements for more details on the availability of the Gold Bounty Assault mode.
6. Trophy Room Update
The Trophy Room is getting another update! It now goes beyond helping with your progression, and it serves as a chronicle of your glory and memories in Kamona! Main Updates:
New Trophy Room Facilities
a) New Collection Room: Players who have unlocked the Trophy Room will automatically unlock the Collection Room for free after the Season 4 update. You can place Gold Bounty collectibles from your Storage in the Collection Room, which will serve as a display for the Gold Bounty collectibles you've extracted.

**Gold Bounty collectibles marked as operation supplies cannot be stored in the Collection Room. Gold Bounty collectibles will also be delisted from the Market and will no longer be available for purchase.
