Mode

Clash Squad: FPP

First-person perspective Clash Squad, let's go!

“Looking for fresh challenges and more intense battle experience? Introducing Clash Squad: first-person perspective (FPP) Mode! We've also improved the first-person experience by fine-tuning the camera, shooting mechanics, and movement to make combat more immersive.”

• We have optimized and adjusted many details in the first-person perspective to improve the gameplay experience. This includes but not limited to: movement actions, speed, shooting performance, skill displays, and visual alerts for nearby enemies. Players will now enjoy a smoother and more seamless experience during matches.
• The sensitivity for the first-person perspective can be adjusted in the Settings.

Cosmic Racer Optimization

The all-new Skyblaster has just been added to Cosmic Racer!

• In Cosmic Racer, after picking up exp. tokens, you can choose to upgrade your vehicle to the flying Skyblaster.
• New vehicle: Skyblaster
  • The driver can fire area blasts and lock on missiles toward enemies.
  • The passengers can use the built-in cannons to attack enemies.

Social Island Optimization

Limited space, infinite joy.

“We've made some changes to Social Island by grouping most of the buildings together to create a livelier atmosphere. To keep cars from the race track from driving into the central square, we've added a teleportation entrance to the track. This way, we can avoid any traffic accidents and keep Social Island fun and safe for everyone.”

• Modified the terrain to reduce the memory usage of the mode.
• Added a new teleport entrance for the race track. Players can now enter the race track directly through this teleportation entrance.
• You can now receive team-up invitations from outside the island while on Social Island.

Characters

New Character

Kassie

Neuroscientist

“Kassie considers pain and fear the basis of human emotions, and she believes her electroshock research is the key to stimulating them. Her ultimate goal is to awaken the emotions of her childhood friend, Sonia, but she keeps getting further off track. Because her treatment methods are too radical, she's been blacklisted by all the medical research institutions in La Luna. Kassie doesn't mind and sets up her own lab in Griza. Both Horizon and The Mambas have tried to recruit her, but she turned them down, convinced that her way is the right way.”

Healing expert

“Within this world, players have different strategies to win matches. For Kassie, she believes that healing is her ultimate path. Kassie can consistently heal her team, assisting them in achieving Booyah.”

Electro Therapy:

Basic Therapy (no cooldown): Tap the skill once to form a healing bond with the target teammate to restore 3 HP/s for self and the target (non-stackable). Max. bonding range: 20m. The bond will automatically break once exceeding the range limit and can also be canceled manually.

Focused Therapy: Use the skill again to instantly restore 100 HP for the target. (The skill will be auto-released while the target's HP is below 50. The healing amount will be 50% of that when manually used.) Cooldown: 60s.

Character Rework

Kapella

A brand-new way to heal!

“Kapella gets a unique healing ability starting with this patch! With her new skill, you can use any weapon to heal teammates directly. Plus, healing weapons provide extra healing!”

Remedy Rounds:

Heal teammates with ammo by 20% of the damage dealt. When using a Heal Pistol, increase healing effects by 20%.

Olivia

Increased healing effect

“Olivia remains the team's guardian angel in this patch. Besides her area healing, she now also boosts the healing amount for players.”

Healing Touch:

Increase healing effects by 30% and spread 80% of the user's single-target healing amount to teammates within 15m.

Skyler

The Wall Break-King

“Nairi and the Gloo Makers have ruled Bermuda for too long. Now, Skyler is back and ready to reclaim his throne. In this patch, Skyler can now stack his skills like Tatsuya, making enemies' Gloo Walls crumble!”

Riptide Rhythm:

Unleashes a sonic wave forward for up to 100m. When hitting an obstacle, the wave will explode and deal 500 DMG/s to Gloo Walls within 4m. Lasts 6s. Cooldown: 45s. Up to 2 skill charges can be stored.

Nairi

Invincible Gloo Walls with restrictions

“In recent patches, Nairi's Gloo Wall has been really powerful. A “thick” Gloo Wall can do a lot, like protecting teammates and helping users navigate dangerous areas. But we don't want players to rely solely on the Gloo Walls without paying attention to what's happening in the match. So, we're adding some restrictions to Nairi’s skill.”

Ice Iron:

Within 3s after deploying Gloo Walls, restores 150 → 160 durability/s for them and restores 20 → 10 HP/s for teammates within 5m. The healing effect cannot be stacked by deploying multiple Gloo Walls.

Character Balance Adjustments

Alok & Awakened Alok

Stronger sonic wave

“With the powerful active skills from Tatsuya, Orion, and others, Alok needs more than just increased movement speed to stand out and compete effectively.”

Drop the Beat:

Creates a 5m aura that increases movement speed by 15% and restores  3 → 5 HP/s for 10s. Effects do not stack. Cooldown: 45s.

Party Remix:

Awakening: While the aura is active, music notes that last for 5s will be dropped 2m behind the skill user every 2s. Teammates who pick up the music note will increase movement speed by 15% and restore  3 → 5 HP/s for 10s.

Chrono

Time Tunerrrrrr!

“We want players to feel safe protecting their teammates inside Chrono's shield and have more time to plan their tactics. Now, Chrono's shield lasts longer, giving players extra time to make decisions.”

Time Turner:

Creates an impenetrable force field that blocks 800 DMG. Unable to attack outside enemies from within the field. All effects last for 6s → 8s. Cooldown: 75s.

Wukong

A more flexible bush

“We've adjusted Wukong's skill cooldown to match other skills.”

Camouflage:

Transforms into a bush that lasts for 15s. Cooldown: 200s →75s. Transformation ends when Wukong attacks. CD resets when Wukong takes down an enemy.

Clu

Track distant enemies and devise better strategies

“Clu is great for countering ambushes in CS, but on larger maps like BR, Clu's skill effectiveness drops. By increasing the scanning range, Clu can be more useful in Battle Royale, which requires more tactical play, and provides tactical players with more skill options.”

Tracing Steps:

Locate positions of enemies within 65m → 80m who are not in prone or squat position. Lasts for 10s. Enemy positions are shared with teammates. Cooldown: 45s.

Ford

Safe escape and reposition for counterattack!

“The duration of Ford’s skill is increased to better prepare you for enemies’ ambush attacks and quickly reposition to fight back.”  

Iron Will:

Gain 10 HP/s for 3s → 4s when taking damage. After releasing an active skill, this passive skill will reset immediately. Cooldown: 20s.

Shirou

Recon ability as powerful as Moco's

“Moco has always been one of the most popular characters. On the other hand, Shirou hasn't performed as well. Shirou's ability is more passive compared to Moco's, so we've improved Shirou's skill effects to help him better mark enemies who ambush him.”

Damage Delivered:

When hit by an enemy from within 100m, said attacker is marked for 6s → 10s (intel is shared with teammates). Max. 4 markings.

Defensive Skill Adjustments

No absolute defense

“There are many defensive skills in the game, like Andrew's protection, which helps players survive longer in battles. However, using multiple defensive skills together can lead to stacking stats excessively, making the game unbalanced in later stages. Imagine attacking an enemy with a submachine gun and only dealing single-digit damage. This goes against our goal of having a diverse skill ecosystem. In this patch, we will be adjusting a number of defensive skills.”

Andrew & Andrew “The Fierce”

Armor Specialist:

Armor durability loss decreases by 25% → 40%.

Wolf Pack:

Awakening: Armor damage reduction boosted by 15% → 5%. Additional 5% damage reduction from every teammate carrying this skill.

J. Biebs

Silent Sentinel:

The skill user and allies within 12m → 15m can block 12% → 8% DMG using EP. In this case, the amount of EP deducted from allies will be added to the skill user's EP.

Shani

Gear Recycle:

When using an active skill, gives 50 → 40 Shield Points to self and teammates within 10m. The Shield Points decay after 5s, after which players can obtain the effects again. Cooldown: 10s.
 

Wolfrahh

Limelight:

Every elimination will add one spectator, and the number of spectators will not reduce. With each additional spectator, damage taken from headshots reduces by 10% → 7% (max. 30% → 21%) and headshot damage to enemies increases by 10% (max. 30%).

Hayato “Firebrand”

Art of Blades:

Awakening: Reduces frontal damage by 3% → 2% for every 10% of max. HP loss.

Other Adjustments

• Optimized skill sound effects for Orion.
• After using the skill, Santino will have 0.3s of cooldown to prevent players from accidentally triggering the second teleportation during intense battles.
• When players inflict damage on shields, a new damage indicator will be displayed.
• Optimized the experience of deploying Gloo Walls inside Chrono’s shield.

Map

Balance Adjustments for CS Maps

• To minimize the disruption caused by long-range enemies on either side of Rim Nam Village, we’ve narrowed the Safe Zone for Rim Nam Village in CS mode, modified the structure and placement of houses on the left edge of both spawn points, and resized the railings on the second-floor edges in the middle area.
• Addressed several hidden high grounds for a more balanced CS combat experience:
  • Nurek Dam: Adjusted the structure of the rooftop edges along the long corridor.
  • Sentosa: Removed two wooden crates near the fence at one of the spawn points.
  • Observatory: Added railings to the edges of the rooftop on one side of the building.
     

Weapon and Balance

New Secondary Weapon: the FGL-24

Use the power of flames to eliminate your enemies!

"Introducing the brand-new secondary weapon, FGL-24! This special grenade launcher can strike enemies behind regular walls and Gloo Walls, forcing them to move. Enemies and vehicles hit by its grenades will get a fearful taste of the flames.
 

• The FGL-24 can fire grenades that penetrate walls, causing explosions on the other side of the walls and emitting flames after a short period.
• When fired at thick walls, the grenades will get stuck in them and will not explode. Instead, they will emit flames behind the wall after a short period.
• Enemies caught in the flames will take burn damage over time.
• The FGL-24 can be found as ground loot.
   

New Secondary Weapon: the Heal Pistol-Y

Healing is the must, help-up is the plus!

"Now we have an upgraded version of the Heal Pistol — the Heal Pistol-Y. This advanced healing weapon, while providing greater healing power, can be used to help up downed teammates. Don't forget to use it to get your teammates back on their feet during battles!"

• Each use of the Heal Pistol-Y restores 25 HP.
• The Heal Pistol-Y has a special firing button that can be used to help up downed teammates from a distance.
• Each Heal Pistol-Y can only be used to help up a downed teammate once. 
• The Heal Pistol-Y can be obtained via Vending Machines and Airdrops.

New Upgradable Weapon: the MAC10

Another upgradable submachine gun!

"Just like the AUG, the MAC10 can now be upgraded if you deal enough damage with it. At the maximum level, its power can be on par with airdrop weapons. Come and give it a try!"

• Players can only level up the MAC10 by dealing damage with it. Upgrading to the MAC10-I/MAC10-II/MAC10-III requires 200/400/800 damage respectively.
• The MAC10 cannot be upgraded using Upgrade Chips.
• Upgraded MAC10 can provide extra damage and rate of fire. 

Weapon Adjustments

Marksman Rifles

"Marksman rifles are supposedly powerful weapons at long ranges. But in reality, they don’t have a competitive advantage against rifles in distant engagements. To address this, we've decided to increase their range."

• AC80: Range+10%, Headshot Damage -10%
• Woodpecker: Range +10%, Damage -2%, Headshot Damage -5%
• SKS: Range +8%, Headshot Damage -8%
• SVD/SVD-Y: Range +12%, Headshot Damage -10%

MAC10

“While the MAC10 series became upgradable, we also tweaked some basic attributes so it won’t be overpowered." 

• MAC10: Rate of Fire -3%, Accuracy -5%, Headshot Damage -10%
• MAC10-I: Rate of Fire +2%, Limb Damage +15%
• MAC10-II: Rate of Fire +4%, Limb Damage +20%
• MAC10-III: Rate of Fire +6%, Limb Damage +25%

VSK94

"As a lightweight sniper rifle, the VSK94 boasts a rapid fire rate and high mobility. However, its low damage output often requires three to four shots to eliminate an enemy in most scenarios, which is not ideal for a sniper rifle. That is why we are increasing the VSK94's damage to make it more competitive." 

•  Damage +3%, Headshot Damage -10%

PLASMA-X

"Plasma-X currently has several issues, such as overheating too quickly and significant bullet spread, which hinder its performance despite its high rate of fire. To make this weapon more appealing to players, we are adjusting its availability and strength.”

• PLASMA-X will no longer show up in matches and will be replaced by the PLASMA instead.
• The post-adjustment PLASMA can be found in Airdrops and Arsenals in BR mode.
• Before heated: Rate of Fire +10%, Accuracy +15%, Magazine +50%
• While heated: Boost for Rate of Fire -10%

RGS-50

"RGS-50 is especially effective in destroying vehicles and Gloo Walls. However, its damage to vehicles is still suboptimal. Hence we decided to boost RGS-50's vehicle damage and tracking capabilities.”

• Damage to Vehicle +50%
• Vehicle Lock-On Time: 2s → 0.6s

Gameplay

Backpack Optimization

No more rifling-throughs!

"We've all been there — standing still, rifling through our backpacks to find or discard items, only to get ambushed by enemies. To make this less of a hassle, we've made several adjustments so that players can swap items effortlessly, even without opening their backpacks!"

• Smart Pop-Up: When you are trying to pick up an item with a full backpack, a small window will pop up and show the excess items that you own and can be directly replaced.
• Item Arrangement: Frequently used items such as ammo, coins, and Med Kits will be prioritized and put in the front rows inside your backpack, much easier to access.
• Drop All: A new "Drop All" area has been added to the discard section. Now you can drag and drop all units of an item in one go, without adjusting the quantity slider.
• Special Ammo Handling: Special ammo of secondary weapons, such as grenade launchers, will NOT be considered useless items until the corresponding weapons are discarded.
• Bag Pouch Removal: This backpack expansion attachment has been removed. The extra capacity it used to provide will be added to the default backpack.

In-Match Battle Highlight Optimization

Victory comes in a million forms!

"Sometimes, a simple Victory or Booyah cannot fully capture the sweet and bitter of a battle. In this patch, we are adding unique banners for victories in various situations, allowing every team to better celebrate their highlight moments!"

• When players meet certain conditions in BR or CS mode, special Victory or Booyah banners that come with the triggered battle highlights (combat notifications), including Big Comeback & Easy Game in CS and Team Annihilator in BR, will pop up.
• The “Avenged” highlight is now available in BR mode.

• Added the Breakthrough feature, allowing players who reach Lv. 5 Weapon Mastery to continue increasing their Mastery level and obtain exclusive Weapon Mastery icons and special effects.

• Added detailed descriptions for recommended resources.

Real-Time Team Invitations in Training Grounds and Social Island

Stay connected even when you are training!

• Team invitations received while in Combat Zone will be shown as booking reminders in the chat.
• Team invitations received while in Target Range and Social Island will be shown as pop-up notifications on the side panel.

Enhanced Armory

Learn more about your weapons!

“We have added detailed information for each weapon in the Armory. Whether it is weapon attributes, adjustment history, or how to get them, you will find it all here!”

• Added easy-to-read bar graphs for attributes including Damage, Rate of Fire, and Range.
• Added a detail page for each weapon to show information such as attribute changes after upgrade and how to get the weapons.
• "Final Shot" can now be equipped separately in the Armory, free from skin restrictions. Once you own the "Final Shot" effect of a gun, you can apply it to any skin of that particular gun type.

The Gunsmith System

Time to craft a unique weapon of your own!

“Sometimes players may like the look of one skin but prefer the attributes of another. That is why we have built the Gunsmith system to give all a chance to customize their weapons. Let’s get crafty as gunsmiths!“

• The Gunsmith feature, which is available in the enhanced Armory, will be unlocked when a player owns at least two skins for the same gun.
• While players can combine the look of a skin they like with the set of attributes they want, each gun only has one Gunsmith slot for customization.
• Evo Gun abilities will be kept when players select the corresponding Evo Gun attributes to combine with the look of another skin.
