MOVEMENT UPGRADES
The battle has changed, with new ways to bring the fight:
SPRINTING
Run at the new,fasterdefault movement speed. A faster default movement speed means a fastersprinttoo! This sprint is so fast that it’ll mean pocketing whatever you’re holding. Of course, sprinting super fast can’t be maintained forever, so a new sprint meter will tell you how much longer you can move at that pace.
MANTLING
Gaining the high ground has always been key to winning a battle. And fortunately, where your feet fail, your hands will now help you out. If a surface is just a little too high for your jump — or a platform just a little too far for your landing — your hands can come into play and pull you up!
SHOULDER BASHING
Speaking of sprinting, sprint at doors to bash them open with your shoulder. It’s probably not very polite, but at least you look cool doing it.
Doctor Strange
New Weapons: – Homing Rocket Launcher
– Repair Tool
New Quest Bundles: – Bootcamp Tutorial (Tutorial for Sliding, Sprinting, Mantling
No Permit (One Quest is related to Island Jammers) –
Milestone & Seasonal Bonus Goals (same system as last season)
BARS TO TURN THE TIDE
Bar funding returns! As the Season progresses, you’ll have new opportunities to help direct the Resistance. Chip in Bars towards pro-Resistance devices, as well as use Bars to vote for which items to unvault.
TURRET DETERMINATION
A different kind of vote is live right now. Instead of an item unvault vote, it’s a Turret device vote! Different pro-Resistance sites need help deciding whether to install aLight Turretor aHeavy Turret. With the former, get the classic Mounted Turret experience. With the slower but beefier latter, do heavy damage to vehicles. The first site that needs help is Sanctuary!
ARMORED BATTLE BUS
There’s another way you can contribute with Bars right away: funding the Armored Battle Bus. 🚍
The Armored Battle Bus is a Battle Bus that’s… ready for battle. This intimidating metallic machine has just about all the fixins: Chonkers tires, aCow Catcherfor extra ramming power, and a Light and Heavy Turret.
It’s not all business with this vehicle, though. If you turn the radio on, it immediately becomes a party bus! Once100% Funded, find an Armored Battle Bus in Resistance-occupied POIs.
RESISTANCE EQUIPMENT
You currently have a wide slate of weapons to work with. Here’s what’s at your disposal!
NEW WEAPONS
Combat SMG
Like the Combat Assault Rifle and Combat Pistol, the Combat SMG packs a heavy punch. Tame its recoil to get the most out of its exceptional power.

LAND AND SKY
POI POSSESSION
The Resistance and IO are locked in head-to-head disputes to claim the Island’s POIs. You can tell if a POI is occupied by the IO if you see an IO Blimp overhead, Titans, IO guards, and Siege Cannons, while a POI occupied by the Resistance may feature an Armored Battle Bus, Sentry guards, and Turrets.
IO BLIMPS
The IO having a bird’s-eye view of the Island may seem intimidating, but you can still access their blimps from the ground. IO Blimps are attached to the ground via Ziplines, so zip up to an IO Blimp and claim its loot for yourself! How do you get back down? Either use a Zipline, use the draft of a fan to begin gliding, or launch yourself with a Siege Cannon.
IO MACHINERY
Use the IO’s artillery against them:
IO TITAN TANKS
What’s one way to barrel through obstacles? An IO Titan Tank! But a Titan’s good for more than just strong-arming. Fire the Titan’s cannon while you drive, and if you wanna be even more formidable, have a teammate control its machine gun turret.
IO Titan Tanks have a massive amount of Health, but their treads can be destroyed if they take enough damage. If this happens, fix ‘em up by hand or with aRepair Torch! The Titan’s a tough battle-tested machine, so what to do if you’re up against one? Deal enough damage to the engine (located at the rear) to temporarily overheat its systems. This is a prime opportunity to take on the treads!
Need to get somewhere fast but the path’s too perilous on foot? Get in the seat of a Siege Cannon and launch yourself far forward. (Or launch your teammates first,thenyourself.) Mid-air, you’ll be given the option to deploy your Glider, but you won’t take fall damage if you don’t deploy it.
You can still have fun with a cannon even if you don’t have travel plans. In addition to using them as a transportation device, keep your opponents at bay by firing projectiles!
HAVE A COW CATCHER
Chonkers Off-Road Tires have been used to make cars offroad since Chapter 2 Season 6, but this fight against the IO calls formoremodification. Available now, throw a Cow Catcher on your Joyride vehicle to boost its ramming power! (Blockades and other vehicles beware.) Throw a Cow CatcherandChonkers on the same vehicle for the ultimate expedition.
THE REPAIR TORCH: A HEALING ITEM FOR YOUR VEHICLES!
Whether your Mudflap’s been subject to explosives, your Motorboat’s been running too long on land, or your Titan’s been targeted at the treads, fix it up with a Repair Torch! Repair Torches restore the Health of vehicles, and if they run out of fuel to ignite? Fill ‘em back up at a gas pump!
