Main New Content
Special Operation "Heist"
In the new special operation, you’ll have to pull off a full-blown bank robbery and destroy data that mustn’t fall into the hands of General Lee Warton. "Heist" is a mission for two partners, who with the help of new cable mechanics will move along the bank building, open three storage facilities with increasing levels of difficulty, while simultaneously fighting the police and special forces and, of course, immerse themselves in the atmosphere of a dynamic action-packed thriller.
We created a thematic set of achievements for the new special operation, which can be earned by completing "Heist".
M4 Marksman Custom
The model is a semi-automatic weapon that is capable of destroying the enemy with two impacts at any distance. It favourably compares to its closest competitors (the rifles H&K G28 and Cobalt Kinetics Twenty-Seven) thanks to an increased damage and better rate of fire offset by a less spacious magazine and more modest ammo. The arm comes equipped with 5 unique attachments: a flame suppressor, two handles, a collimator sight and a regular sight.
"The Big Score" Series
The looks of the models will remind you about the success of the mission - just look at the weapon frames and enjoy the detailed cutscene with the opening of the vault. In addition, the guns have gold inlays, which symbolize the bank's wealth and will appeal to those who like to shoot from eye-catching weapons.
"Heist" Map for Blitz
The battle on the new map for the "Blitz" mode will unfold in locations inspired by the namesake Special Operation "Heist". The main field of battle is an elite bank located in a skyscraper. The rules remain the same: you have to find and defuse a bomb. However, the task is not as easy as it might seem - the enemies will do their best to derail the mission and detonate the charge.
Themed Safe House
The guards of the bank, which you will have to rob during the new special operation, train in the Safe House. The Safe House is decorated with themed elements and looks pretty realistic. "Parkour" training is also updated. The location got new easter eggs, which reveal new details of the plot. Will you be able to find all of them?
Kalashnikov USA Komrad 12
The Kalashnikov USA Komrad 12 is an automatic shotgun boasting excellent specs. It favourably compares to its main competitors Uzkon UNG-12 and Typhoon F12 thanks to increased damage, great firing range and impressive hip fire accuracy, which are offset by an average rate of fire and modest ammo.
"Shapeshifter" Gear Set
"Shapeshifter" gear is equipment for hired robbers. It is essential for them to have good protection from bullets in shootouts with the police. The new gear has the best direct armour protection (more armour points for vests, and more damage absorption points for every shot); however, it is less appealing in all other respects since it features lower movement speed values, reduced number of secondary bonuses (for example, bonuses to recoil, spread and reload), and moderate health restoration, as well as a complete lack of armour replenishment.
In addition, due to the special distribution of armour points among the class vests of the set, it was possible to achieve an increase in the efficiency and value of the Rifleman on the battlefield - this class received the highest number of armour points. With the new armour, the Rifleman will be able to survive longer and gain precious seconds to complete the battle in his or her favor.

"Shapeshifter" Skins
The exclusive "Shapeshifter" skins offer a unique boost - they increase the overall sprint distance by 60%. The skins are the outfit of robbers who hide their identities with frightening masks. They instill fear in any opponent and are available in 4 class-specific versions: the mask of a wolf, a bull, a monkey or a raven.
Weapon and Camo Series
The Battle Pass "Heist" offers brand new marvellous series "Heat" and "Mechanical". The most active fighters will be able to get their hands on powerful arms inspired by the new Special Operation. Themed camos set in the same style will be a pleasant cosmetic bonus for fans of the series.

"Heist" Weapon Charms
You will be able to expand your collection of available weapon charms with brand new items set in the style of the Special Operation "Heist". They will remind you of taking part in a sensational robbery and fleeing the police and special forces.
Battle Pass Achievements
Participants of the Battle Pass will be able to gain unique achievements and decorate their profiles with them. Earn all the distinctions and showcase your vault hacking experience at the most secure bank!
АK-15 Custom
The assault rifle AK-15 is designed as an impressive modified version of the real prototype (hence the word Custom in the name) with a lot of attachments. The AK-15 Custom offers all the perks of its main competitors, but inflicts more damage due to its larger caliber. It also surpasses its counterparts in the rate of fire and hip fire accuracy.
The golden version of the gun sports an increased rate of fire, as well as a more spacious magazine and greater ammo. By eliminating enemies with it, you'll be able to get a unique distinction.
"Lucky Rabbit" Series
The seasonal Ranked Matches weapon and camouflage series line-up has been replenished with a brand new one - the spring collection "Lucky Rabbit". This special line-up is designed for the best fighters, who can boast regular impressive victories and enjoy the overall excitement of the battle while eliminating competitors in the struggle for the highest leagues.
By landing killing blows with the "Lucky Rabbit" series, you'll be able to pin a special distinction on your profile.
But that's not all! As part of the update, the following novelties has become available:
- Toy Hammer;
- improved situation with "freezes";
- crouch/stand up command improvements;
- improved "bloody" effect upon impact;
- gear presets;
- in-game chat interface improvements.
Read about all these and other changes in the full change log.
Good luck in combat!
