Patch Notes

V10.10 Content Update Patch Notes – Junk Rift!

Battle Royale

What’s New?

Junk Rift
Heads up! You can now deal with opponents by dropping heavy things on them. With the power of the Rift, summon anchors, cars, and more to fall from the sky.

Glitched Consumables
They say you are what you consume, but these consumables don’t even know what they are. A Rift Beacon has exploded, creating forageable items that keep turning into other forageable items — they’re glitched!

Weapons + Items

  • Junk Rift
    • A throwable item that breaks on contact and spawns a large object in the sky that plummets to the ground.
      • The plummeting object:
        • Damages players and destroys everything in its path.
        • Creates a small shockwave upon landing that damages players and destroys everything in its radius.
      • Damage:
        • Direct hit: 200
          • Direct hits slightly knock players back.
        • Shockwave hit: 100
        • Both hits immediately destroy vehicles and destructible objects on impact.
    • Drops in stacks of 2.
    • Max stack size: 4
    • Epic Rarity.
    • Available from Floor Loot, Chests, Supply Drops, and Llamas.
  • Glitched Consumables

      • Hop Rocks

      • Shadow Stone

      • ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Due to an issue, we’ve disabled the following item: Shadow Stone.

Gameplay

  • The map has changed! The Rift Beacon at the Rec Center malfunctioned, causing an explosion that left a giant crater and created the Glitched Consumables.
    • Glitched Consumables can only be found at the crater.

Art + Animation

  • The Green Toy Wrap has been updated.
    • Because of this, owners of the Toy Soldiers Wraps bundle have been given the option to refund the bundle without the use of a Refund Token.
      • NOTE: Players have 30 days from their next login to redeem this refund.
