[2021] v18.20 Update - Now Live

Hey again, everyone!

Downtime for v18.20 has ended. You can find the full details in our blog post, but here’s a summary of what’s new.

• New global war effort vote… and with new items! The Combat Assault Rifle faces off with the Combat SMG.
  
• v18.20 brings improvements to Impostors. Select if you want to more likely be an Impostor or Agent with Role Bias, and queue into an Impostors playlist that includes open Voice Chat.
  
• In case you missed it, we’ve recently made some XP changes. Starting last week, repeatable Shared Quests now reward more XP. Also, we’ll be adding a variety of additional Quests to the Daily and Weekly Punchcard in our next game update.
  

Jump back in and choose the Combat weapon you want on the Island!

Competitors,

Downtime for update v18.20 has ended. Drop back in!

As a reminder, FNCS Qualifier 1 begins this Friday at 6 PM ET. See the calendar on our Competitive homepage for exact timing details.

Also, with the release of v18.20, we’ve made alterations to the Boundless Set Outfits to the point where we felt comfortable introducing them back into competitive playlists. You’ll notice the Outfits have slightly different lighting and shading effects in the new update.

Thank you. ⛏
