Flashlights and Visors: The Technology to Survive the New Map 🔦

The main novelty of this season is a map designed to increase difficulty. Total darkness forces players to use flashlights and night vision visors as basic tools to advance. Without these elements, visibility is almost zero, which changes the game strategy. Additionally, a new playable character and two extra weapons are incorporated. Map rewards are only obtained by completing objectives in low-light conditions, requiring careful management of light resources.

Free Weekend: The Perfect Excuse to Lose Sleep 😱

The free week is a masterstroke for the undecided to check if they enjoy sweating in the dark. Because yes, now besides dodging bullets, you'll have to remember to bring batteries. The new horror map promises scares and the occasional death from tripping over a turned-off flashlight. If after all that you still want to buy the game, congratulations: you like to suffer with guaranteed progress.
