Competitors,

Downtime for update v19.10 has ended. This update brings some new items into competitive playlists: Shield Keg and Armored Walls

The Return of Tilted Towers! The Island’s thaw goes on, and Tilted Towers has emerged from underneath the snow and ice!

ICYMI: Balance Changes made last week included decreasing the damage of the Stinger SMG, slightly decreasing the damage of the MK-Seven Assault Rifle, and increasing the reload speed of the Auto Shotgun. We'll continue to evaluate the balance changes as the season evolves, and appreciate your continued feedback!

Thank you, and good luck this week. ⛏
