NEWS

• New Equip button for guns in the Armory. The rifle, SMG, sniper or heavy gun you equip is the one you spawn with in Team Deathmatch, Free For All, Versus and Practice. Equip a pistol to replace the Glock as your sidearm.
• Gun prices are 200 coins higher: 300 to about 700 coins.
• Fixed: the stats panel in the Armory could be cut off at some window sizes.

• Fixed: aiming down sights with guns like the FAMAS put a big block of the gun (carry handle, sight) in the middle of the screen. Every gun now sits just below your crosshair when aiming, so the centre stays clear.

• Join the Combat Horizens Telegram: click the logo in the About screen, or use the new "Join us on Telegram" button.
• The Android app now opens outside links in Telegram or your browser instead of inside the game.

Unlock guns with coins

• Open the Armory and press Buy to unlock a gun with coins. Prices run from 300 to about 700 coins.
• Free from the start: Glock-18, USP-45, P2000, P250, AK-47, M4A4, M4A1 SD, AWP, MP9 and MAC-10. Guns you have already got kills with stay unlocked.
• Locked guns show "Armory" in the buy menu. You can still try every gun in Target Practice and pick any gun up in Battle Royale.

The Armory

• The Inventory is now an armory: pick a category on the left, see the weapon in 3D in the middle (drag to spin it) and its stats on the right.
• Every weapon has a level: 10 kills per level, up to 50, with Bronze, Silver and Gold mastery.
• "Your Performance" shows the matches, kills, headshots, accuracy and damage you've done with each weapon.
• Skins, Equip and Loadout are on the bottom bar. "All items" opens the full item grid.

Map vote in Versus

• Before every Versus match, everyone votes for a map or Random. 10-second timer; it ends early once everyone has voted.
• Bots vote too, and online the host shares every vote with the whole lobby.

Scopes

• SG 553 and AUG now use a clean red-dot sight with no black mask.
• Sniper scopes are much wider, with a soft edge and a thin reticle with range dots.
• The M1A has its own marksman scope with a red chevron.

Renamed maps, weapons and skins

• Maps: Dunehold, Oasis, Vineyard, Lost Temple, Pharaoh, Exclusion Zone and Reactor.
• Weapons: USP-45, M4A1 SD, .357 Revolver and Stun Gun.
• Knife finishes have new names. Credits now list each creator.

Battle Royale

• The island is about twice as big, with twice as many houses, cover, trees and loot.
• 30 to 35 players drop into every match.
• A longer flight and an extra zone phase to suit the bigger map. Ranked and XP placement rewards now scale for 35 players.
• New drop plane: a four-engine transport with spinning propellers, cockpit glass, Combat Horizens livery, an open cargo ramp and flashing navigation lights.

Level and Rank are separate now

• Levels only track XP. Reaching Level 20 unlocks Ranked.
• Two ranked ladders: Battle Royale and Team Deathmatch. Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Heroic, Grandmaster.
• Play ranked online or with bots: both add RP (bots give 60%). Ranked bots get tougher as your rank goes up.
• Ranked online rooms need Level 20. Leaving a ranked match early costs RP.

4K graphics

• New 4K Ultra render resolution (Settings, Video): the game is drawn at 3840×2160 and scaled to your screen, so it's sharper even on a 1080p monitor. Also 1440p and Native.
• All wall, ground, brick, rock and sand textures are now 2K, four times sharper than before. Phones automatically use a lighter version.
• New Ultra (8K) shadow quality.
• On a PC with a strong graphics card, 4K Ultra and 8K shadows switch on automatically the first time you play.
• The loading screen artwork is now 4K.

Bots play like humans

• Bots no longer one-tap you out of nowhere. Their aim starts off and settles over about half a second, they need time to turn, and they mostly aim at the chest. Headshots only come when they've lined up well.
• Recoil climbs during long bursts, shooting while moving is inaccurate (so they stop to shoot, like real players), and getting hit throws their aim off.
• Every bot has its own skill level, and distance really matters now.

Smaller maps for small fights

• 1v1, 1v2, 2v2 and the FFA duel now take place on a compact arena (about 40 to 52 m across) instead of the full 100 m map. 3v3 and bigger keep the full map.

Loading screen and lobby music

• New original music. "Horizon Rising" plays on the loading screen: a slow cinematic theme with deep strings, taiko drums and a shimmering arpeggio.
• "Rally Point" plays in the lobby: a tactical groove with drums, bass, chords and a lead melody that comes in on the second half of the loop.
• The loading theme blends smoothly into the lobby theme. The music fades out when a match starts and comes back when you return to the menu.
• Turn it on or off in Settings, Sound & screen, Music. There is also a separate Music volume slider.
• In a web browser the music starts the first time you tap or click. In the Android app it starts straight away.

Cinematic loading screen

• The loading screen now shows a real scene from the game, the squad in the street at sunset, with a slow camera push-in.
• Big, sharp logo with the tagline "Every street is a battlefield".
• Glowing embers drifting up, soft light rays, a glass progress panel and tips that fade in and out.
• A smooth zoom-and-fade into the menu when loading finishes. Works on phones in both portrait and landscape.

Battle Royale on an island

• Battle Royale now takes place on an island surrounded by open sea, Free Fire style: sandy beaches, turquoise shallows, deep blue ocean with waves, sun glint and shoreline foam, palm trees along the coast and rocks on the shore.
• Every house can be entered: doors, windows you can see and shoot through, furniture (beds, tables with chairs, bookshelves, sofas, rugs) and loot inside.
• Two-storey houses with a staircase to the upper floor.
• The zone always closes on land, loot never spawns in the sea, and the minimap shows the island and the water.
• Fixed: bots that landed on a roof walked straight off it and kept walking in mid-air. Bots now fall off ledges and roofs like players do.

A real Kevlar vest

• New 3D Kevlar vest model: shaped front and back panels that wrap around the body, woven fabric with stitching, padded shoulder straps, side straps with buckles, MOLLE webbing, a raised armor-plate pocket, three magazine pouches, a KEVLAR name tape and a drag handle on the back.
• The buy menu shows the vest instead of a shield symbol.
• Armor pickups in Battle Royale are now the vest lying flat on the ground.
• The HUD armor icon is now a vest.

Headshots always count

• Fixed: shots into the camo leaves on top of Tactical soldiers' helmets passed straight through and did nothing. Head gear on every bot (camo, bandanas, visors) now counts as a headshot.
• Every soldier has a slightly larger head hitbox, so shots that clip the edge of the helmet or the ears register as headshots.
• The neck, shoulders and chest still count as body shots.

Spawn weapon fix

• Fixed: unequipping the AWP in your Inventory still made you spawn with it in Free For All and Team Deathmatch. Unequipping it now switches you back to the AK-47.
• Equipping an AK-47 or AWP skin in your Inventory also makes it your spawn weapon.
• Changing your spawn weapon during a match now takes effect on your next respawn. A gun you bought or picked up is still kept.

Smoother medkit, 6 second heal

• Healing now takes 6 seconds. The quick moves stay quick; the extra time is a slow injection where you watch the green liquid drain.
• Reworked animation: smooth, flowing motion instead of stopping at each step, with a soft settle when the case comes up and a bounce on the lid.
• The syringe springs up out of its slot when the lid opens, and your hand grabs it without any jump or twist.
• Your left arm now always comes up from below instead of sweeping across the screen.
• A quick jab into your leg, then a slow plunger push with a slight hand tremble.
• The HEALING bar now tracks the injection and disappears once the heal lands.

Medkit: full heal

• New Medkit heals you to 100 HP. Press H (or 6, or tap the red ✚ button on phones).
• Full first-person animation: your gun drops, you raise a red first-aid case, flip the lid, take out the syringe, inject it and toss it, then snap the case shut.
• You spawn with 1 medkit every life. Buy more in the Gear tab for $400 (carry up to 2; up to 5 in Battle Royale).
• Shooting or switching weapons before the injection cancels it, and you keep the medkit.

Shadows, fixed properly

• Fixed a long-standing bug where sun shadows only appeared in a tiny patch around you. They now cover the whole area you can see.
• Lower afternoon sun: buildings and walls throw long shadows across the streets.
• Shadows no longer shimmer or crawl when you move.
• Shaded areas are deeper and slightly cool-tinted, like real outdoor shade.
• The hard-edged grey bands around walls and crates are gone, replaced by smooth, soft shading where objects meet the ground.

Maps that feel solid

• Soft contact shadows where walls, buildings, crates and sandbags meet the ground, so nothing looks like it's floating.
• Darker corners where two walls meet.
• Dirt, grime and sun-bleached patches on the ground break up the repeating floor texture.

A real sky

• Every map now has a real sky: deep blue overhead, fading into the haze at the horizon, with soft clouds that slowly drift.
• The sun is visible in the sky and matches the direction of the shadows.
• Looking toward the sun gives a warm glare and lens streak. Buildings in the way block it.
• The film-style vignette from 0.48 now actually shows.

Everything on High

• High graphics is now the default on every device, phones included.
• Film-style lighting with softer highlights, richer colour and a subtle vignette.
• Very high shadows, high detail, 16x texture filtering and full effects out of the box.
• If a device runs slowly, the game suggests lowering graphics instead of doing it silently.

Photo-real surfaces

• New photo-scanned textures (CC0, from ambientCG) on the sand ground, plaster, stone and concrete walls, Vineyard's bricks and cobbled streets, Lost Temple's grass, wooden crates and doors, and the metal ladders.
• On Medium and High graphics, surfaces also get depth: bricks, cobbles, rock and plaster catch the light and throw small shadows. Low graphics keeps the photo textures without depth, to stay fast on phones.

No more block arms on any gun

• The AK-47, AWP, Glock-18, USP-45, P250, Tec-9, MAC-10 and MP9 had square arms built into their models. They now have rounded camo sleeves with cuffs and gloved fists, and still move with every reload and draw animation. Knives and push daggers got gloved hands too.

Results screen buttons on phones

• On phones held sideways, "Play again" and "Main menu" were pushed off the bottom of the results screen. The screen now uses two columns there (result and stats on the left, XP and buttons on the right), and the buttons always stay visible at the bottom.

Heavy guns slow you down

• New setting: Settings → Game → Weapon weight affects speed.
• Off: you move at the same speed whatever you hold. Normal: heavy guns are a bit slower (the old behaviour). Realistic: machine guns and snipers are much slower, pistols are quick and the knife is fastest.
• The speed line above your ammo now shows LIGHT, MEDIUM or HEAVY for the weapon in your hand.
• Online matches always use Normal so everyone moves fairly.

Win streaks 🔥

• Win 2 matches in a row to reach Streak 1, 4 in a row for Streak 2, and so on. Losing a match resets it.
• Each new streak level pays coins (100 × the level, up to 400).
• While you're on a streak, every win gives +10% XP per streak level, up to +50%.
• The results screen shows your streak progress, the operator card shows a 🔥 badge, and the career card and Account screen track your current and best streak.
• Every mode counts except the practice range. In Battle Royale only first place counts as a win.

Real hands instead of blocks

• The square hands are gone. Every gun now has modelled hands: tactical gloves with knuckle pads, fingers curled around the grip, a trigger finger resting along the frame, a thumb, a wrist and a tapered sleeve with a cuff and fabric folds.
• On pistols the left hand cups the right. On rifles, SMGs, shotguns and snipers it holds the handguard from underneath.
• Hands are placed on each gun's own grip and handguard, so they line up on all 19 newer gun models.
• Your sleeves match the camo of the agent you have equipped.

P2000 fixed

• The P2000 was held backwards, with the barrel pointing at you and the grip under the front. It now points forward with the grip in your hand.

Passwords, profile photos and multiple accounts

• Password: new accounts now choose a password (6+ characters, with a strength meter). Existing players are asked to set one the next time they open the game.
• Recovery code: when you set a password you get a code like ABCD-1234. Keep it safe; it's the only way to reset a forgotten password.
• Sign-in screen: the game asks for your password when it starts. Tick "Stay signed in" to skip it on your own device. After 5 wrong tries you wait 30 seconds.
• Profile photo: take a selfie with the camera or pick a picture from your gallery, then drag and zoom to frame it. It shows on the sign-in screen, the top bar, your operator card and the Account screen.
• Several accounts: Account → ⇄ Switch lets you add more accounts and switch between them. Each one keeps its own level, coins, skins, stats, daily tasks and password.
• Account → 🔒 Password changes your password, 📷 Photo changes your picture, and Sign out locks the game.
• Accounts are stored on this device only; they aren't online accounts.

Every agent you buy is now special

• Sand Viper · Quick Hands: reload 15% faster.
• Jungle Ghost · Fieldcraft: after 4 s without taking damage, heal 2 HP a second, up to 60 HP.
• Night Owl · Steady Aim: 15% less recoil on every gun.
• Arctic Fox · Swift: move 6% faster.
• Crimson Fang · Bloodlust: every kill heals you 15 HP.
• Gold Standard · Bounty Hunter: 25% more coins and 10% more XP from every match.
• Each agent also has a signature kill effect: a burst of its own symbol in its own colour. Your lobby pad glows in your agent's colour, a perk badge shows above your health, and a short intro appears when the match starts.
• Health perks (Fieldcraft, Bloodlust) work in bot matches and rooms you host.

Daily tasks: coins, skins and level boosts

• New Daily Tasks button (calendar icon, top right). It shows a badge when a reward is ready to claim.
• Three new tasks every day, Easy, Medium and Hard, such as "Get 10 kills", "Get 5 headshot kills", "Win a Bomb Defusal match" or "Get 3 kills with sniper rifles".
• Each day one task pays coins, one pays a weapon skin and one pays a level boost: bonus XP plus 2× XP for your next 1–3 matches.
• Finish all three for the daily bonus: 300 coins and a rare weapon skin.
• Don't like a task? Swap one unfinished task per day. Progress updates at the end of every match (online too), except the practice range.

Personal combat analytics

• New Account button (the person icon at the top right) opens your combat analytics.
• Overview: accuracy, headshot kills %, head hits %, damage per match, K/D, total damage, win rate and longest kill. Each main stat shows whether you're improving: your last 10 matches compared with the 10 before.
• Improvement over time: a chart of your accuracy, headshot %, damage or K/D for every match, with a 5-match average line. Hover or tap a point to see that match.
• Weapons: kills, accuracy, headshot kills, damage, damage per hit and shots for every gun, knife and grenade you've used. Tap a column to sort; your best gun is marked.
• Match history: your last 40 matches with result, K/D, accuracy, headshots, damage and top weapon.
• Insights: short tips based on your numbers, like your weakest gun or how often you hit the head.

Real steel ladders

• The flat ladder pictures in Battle Royale are now proper 3D steel ladders: two rails, round rungs every 30 cm, brackets bolted to the wall, base plates, and grab rails that bend over the roof edge.
• Tall ladders get a yellow safety cage. It's hidden on Low prop detail to keep phones fast.
• Ladders no longer block doorways.

Sharper, weathered buildings

• HD walls: plaster, stone, brick and concrete textures are now 4× sharper. Plaster has trowel marks and hairline cracks, stone has bevelled blocks, and concrete has form-panel seams, tie holes and rust streaks.
• Weathering: walls get dirt and damp near the ground, rain streaks running down, and soft colour variation, so no two walls look the same.
• Corner stones: plaster and stone buildings get dressed corner blocks. They're hidden on Low prop detail to keep phones fast.

A new lobby street and home screen

• Street: sharp sun-baked asphalt with cracks, patch repairs, oil stains and tyre wear, a dashed yellow centre line, stone kerbs, paved sidewalks, sand drifting in from the edges, a drain grate and a manhole.
• Deploy pad: the thin glowing ring under your operator is now a painted deployment marker.
• Versus: pick 1v1, 1v2, 1v3, 2v2, 3v3, 4v4 or 5v5. Play it against bots, host it for friends, from the Versus card in Play, or press ⚔ Challenge next to a friend to send them the invite. Kill goal scales with the size (1v2 first to 15, up to 40 for 4v4 and 5v5), and bots fill any empty slots.
• Career card: rank badge, matches, kills, wins and a win-rate bar. The operator card has a cleaner XP bar.

Every sound redone, new buy menu, scoreboard and pause

• Announcer: radio callouts for "Go go go", "The bomb has been planted", "The bomb has been defused" and who won the round. Turn it off in Settings → Game.
• New sounds: buying gear (rustle and clack), denied purchases, pickups, the radio chirp countdown, the round-start horn, the C4 beep (a real two-tone beeper), the alarm klaxon, jumps, smoke grenade pop and hiss, scope zoom, weapon inspect, level-up, medals, and a win or lose stinger at the end of every Bomb Defusal round.
• Buy menu: every item shows its picture and price. You can see at a glance what you own and what you can't afford, and your money is shown big at the top.
• Scoreboard (Tab): the big team score, the map and clock, and both teams in separate panels with avatars, rank, kills, deaths, K/D and money. Dead players fade, and the C4 carrier is tagged.
• Pause menu: shows your kills, deaths, headshots and accuracy, with big buttons.
• New toggles in Settings → Game: Announcer voice, 3D positional sound, Menu sounds.

3D sound and a sharper HUD

• 3D positional audio: gunshots, footsteps, reloads and explosions now come from where they really are, including in front, behind, above and below. Headphones recommended.
• Walls muffle sound: an enemy behind a wall or inside a building sounds dull and quieter. Far-away shots lose their crack and become distant thumps.
• Rooms sound like rooms: under a roof (B Underpass, inside buildings) you hear a tight room echo. Outside you get a long open-air tail and a slapback echo off the buildings.
• Low health: below 30 HP the world sounds muffled and you hear your own heartbeat.
• Menu sounds: soft ticks when you hover and click, and a different sound for switching tabs.
• HUD: the score bar shows a tile for every player on both teams. Dead players are crossed out, your tile is outlined, and the C4 carrier is marked. A red arc around your crosshair shows where you're being shot from. The ammo box has a bullet bar for the magazine and turns red when you're low.

19 guns get detailed models of their own

• New detailed models with real textures for the Desert Eagle, M249, MP5, Thompson, Barrett, .357 Revolver, Sawed-Off, XM1014, Nova, Dual Berettas, P2000, AUG, M1A, UMP-45, Negev, SCAR-20, PP-Bizon, FAMAS and SSG 08. They appear in your hands, in the inventory and in the store.
• Gun models by Hobbeswyn. Thank you!

Every gun keeps its own model

• Every gun has its own shape again. The guns without a detailed model are built from their real side profile, with pixel-style textures, outlined edges, rails, sights, muzzle devices and magazines, and are held at a three-quarter angle like the AK-47.

Sharper, shinier guns

• Every gun and knife texture is upscaled with a pixel-art-aware filter. Edges and panel lines stay crisp instead of blocky, and stay sharp at an angle.
• Guns now have real material shading: steel parts catch a subtle sheen and reflect the sky and sand, while wood and polymer stay matte. Painted skins have a glossy finish, and 24K Gold looks like real gold.
• Your weapon is lit by a key light, a soft warm fill and a cool rim light, so it stands out from the background.
• Phones use a lighter version to save memory.

Faster inventory

• The inventory loads 120 items at a time, with a "Show more" button, so big collections open instantly.

C4, bigger explosions, better fire

• The bomb in Bomb Defusal is now a real C4: six taped charges, a keypad, a green LCD, coloured wires, an antenna and a red light that blinks faster as it counts down. In the last 10 seconds the LCD shows the timer.
• The bomb carrier wears the C4 on their back, so you can see who has it. While planting you "type the code": the stars fill in with a key click each.
• Grenades, barrels and the C4 now explode with a flash, a rolling fireball, a shockwave across the ground, flying debris and a column of smoke that hangs in the air. They also leave scorch marks.
• Molotov fire has hot white cores and red tips, a flickering glow on the ground, rising embers and a light smoke trail.
• Fixes: on phones, "First to 40" no longer overlaps the score box. The B Underpass entrances now have a proper wall and lintel, and the lamps light the floor.

Cleaner menus, settings and results

• The Play screen shows every mode at once. Each card has its team size, round style and win condition, with Bomb Defusal as the featured mode.
• Lobbies show the room code as big tiles and list Blue and Red teams side by side. Each team shows its players, plus the slots bots or friends will fill.
• Settings are split into Game, Video, Controller & touch, Crosshair and App tabs.
• The results screen has stat tiles, and its colour shows how you did: gold for a win, sand for a placing, red for a loss. You now hear a victory fanfare or a defeat stinger when the match ends.
• The store says how many coins you still need for a case. The controller layout screen got a cleaner look.

New controller layout screen

• The first time you play with a controller, a full controller layout shows you every move. It matches your controller: PlayStation buttons (✕ ○ □ △, L1/R1, Options) or Xbox (A B X Y, LB/RB, Menu).
• Press any button and it lights up on the drawing. The sticks move with your thumbs. Press Options / Menu to continue.
• Open it any time from Settings → Controller, or from the pause menu → Controls. On-screen hints now use your controller's button names.

Controller fixes

• Fixed the view turning by itself while playing with a controller. The mouse cursor sitting at the edge of the screen was turning the camera.
• Controllers that report their triggers as sticks (common on Android and with generic pads) no longer spin the view. Their triggers now fire and aim properly.
• Stick drift is calibrated out automatically. Settings → Controller has a dead-zone slider and a live stick readout.
• Picking up the controller in the middle of a match no longer pauses the game.

Matches end on time

• On slower phones the match clock ran slower than real time, so a 5:00 match could last much longer. The clock now always keeps real time (also round timers and the start countdown).
• The results screen now says why the match ended: "Wolf reached 20 kills first" or "Time's up · you had the most kills".

Controller support

• Plug in or pair an Xbox, PlayStation or other standard controller and press any button. It works on PC, in the browser and in the Android app.
• RT fire · LT aim · left stick move (click to sprint) · right stick look · A jump · B crouch, or slide while sprinting · X reload · Y next weapon · LB grenade · RB use / plant / defuse / pick up · D-pad ↑ primary, ← pistol, ↓ knife, → buy (heal in Battle Royale) · View for scores · Menu to pause.
• The menus work on the controller too: D-pad or left stick to move, A to select, B to go back, LB/RB to switch tabs. You get vibration on shots, hits and explosions. Aim assist turns on automatically for controllers, and on-screen hints show controller buttons.
• Settings → Controller has look speed, invert up/down and a vibration on/off switch. Moving the mouse or pressing a key switches straight back to mouse and keyboard.

Friends, invites and 1v1 Duels

• New Friends button (top right). Share your 6-character friend code, add your friends' codes and see who's online.
• Press ⚔ 1v1 on an online friend to challenge them. They get a pop-up to accept, and both of you land in a 1v1 lobby. In any Multiplayer lobby, press Invite friends to bring friends in.
• New mode 1v1 Duel: first to 10 kills, spawning at opposite ends of the map. Play it online with a friend, or against a bot.
• Fixes: the Free-for-All leaderboard no longer freezes on the previous match's scores. On phones the compass no longer covers it. The sealed dead-end alleys and bare wall slabs are gone from the classic map, and bots now plan routes around buildings instead of getting stuck on walls and low kerbs.

Breakable windows, aim assist, better buildings

• Shoot a window and the glass shatters with a real glass-break sound. HE grenades and exploding barrels blow out nearby windows. Windows are repaired every round.
• Aim assist for touch controls, the Android beta app and new players below level 15. It gently pulls toward a visible enemy near your crosshair and slows your aim over them. It never works through walls or smoke. Change it in Settings → Aim assist.
• The flat green sheet on Lost Temple buildings is now real hanging ivy. The map doors are proper wooden double doors, and the outer walls have tiled stone with a base and a top trim.

Classic three-lane map & explosive barrels

• Bomb Defusal, Team Deathmatch and Free-for-All now play on a classic three-lane layout: A Lane with long doors, Mid with double doors, Short A, covered B Underpass and a B window connector.
• Red explosive barrels around both sites, Mid, A Lane and Tunnels. Shoot one and it catches fire, then blows up. It chains into nearby barrels, and HE grenades set them off too. Barrels respawn every round.

New name, tactical gunplay & smarter enemies

• Combat Rival is now Combat Horizens, with a new logo and a golden-hour lobby.
• Every shot kicks: camera recoil, FOV punch and a low thump. Heavy guns aim and sway slower than light ones.
• Manual reloads: R drops the mag, R inserts a fresh one, R chambers a round. Hold E at AMMO crates to restock your rig. Settings → Reload lets you pick Auto (press R once) or Manual.
• Lean around corners with Z/X (last weapon moved to `). Sandbag cover on every map, and bots can only hit what they can see.
• Enemy classes: fast Rushers, armored Heavies with machine guns, and Tactical soldiers who throw grenades and fall back to cover.
• Battle Royale, Free Fire style: ride the plane and press SPACE to jump, dive with W, open your parachute and glide to your spot. Carry medkits and heal with H, and race to red-smoke airdrops for top guns. Win the match for a BOOYAH!
• New trees everywhere: leafy oaks, tall cypresses, big jungle trees with vines, twisted dead trees, plus bushes to hide in on the Battle Royale map.
• Bomb Defusal tactics: T bots take map control (A Lane, Mid, B Long), stage, then execute with smokes, flashes and mollies, plant and play post-plant angles. CT bots hold 2-1-2 or stacked setups, call out enemies, rotate and run grouped retakes with utility. Team radio callouts appear on the left.

7 maps, katanas, grenades & water

• Dunehold, Exclusion Zone, Lost Temple, Oasis, Pharaoh, Reactor and Vineyard, picked at random, with real sand textures and realistic water.
• Katana and Dual Katanas: hold right-click to block, and a well-timed block deflects bullets back at the shooter.
• HE, Flashbang, Smoke, Molotov, Incendiary and Fire Bomb grenades with real bounce physics. Slide with Q, and a backstab with a knife is an instant kill.
• Free-for-All leaderboard, round hotbar, new crosshair styles, and redeem codes in the Store.

Real 3D guns & knives, kill cards, starter kit

• AK-47, AWP (with scope), Glock-18, USP-45 (with silencer), P250, Tec-9, MAC-10 and MP9 now use detailed 3D models with hand-made draw, shoot, reload and inspect animations and real recorded sounds.
• 10 real knives — Bayonet, Butterfly, Classic, Karambit, M9, Push Daggers, Skeleton, Stiletto, Huntsman, Talon — with draw, three slash and inspect animations. 10 new ★ knife skins in the Store and the Horizens Elite Case.
• Every other gun borrows the closest real shot and reload sounds. New kill cards, skull icons and combo medals with their own sounds.
• New players get a starter kit: AK-47, AWP, Glock-18, Knife, Classic Knife, Bayonet and four Stock grenades (HE, Flashbang, Smoke, Molotov). The mouse cursor is hidden while you play.

Full arsenal, knives, finishes & sound

• 45 weapons: 10 pistols, 8 SMGs, 6 shotguns, 2 machine guns, 7 rifles, 6 snipers, Stun Gun — each with its own spray pattern, sound voice and reload sequence. Side-locked guns in Bomb Defusal (Tec-9/AK-47 for T, Five-SeveN/M4A4 for CT…).
• 21 knives unlocked by level — Karambit waits for you at level 100. 30 blade finishes (Fade, Nebula, Marble Swirl, Scarlet Lattice…) in the Store. Press F to inspect.
• New sound engine: layered gunshots with reverb and stereo, staged reloads (mag out, mag in, charging handle, bolt, pump, shells), brass casings, surface footsteps, bullet whiz, hit and kill confirms.
• Medals & streaks: Double Kill → Ace, Killing Spree → Godlike, Headshot, No-Scope, Humiliation, Air Strike… plus damage numbers, screen shake and a slow-motion final kill.
• Levels 1–500, ranks to Combat Horizens at 100, and every mode playable vs bots or online.
