NEW IN-GAME EVENT: M.U.T.E. PROTOCOL

The future may or may not be here, but one thing’s for certain: technology is changing. Mute has taken control of the Comm Tower, but dissenting forces are itching to take it back. In this all-new game, it’s robot against robot! Can you secure victory with gameplay modifiers thrown in the mix?

For two weeks starting August 4th, reinvent yourself with the M.U.T.E. Protocol!



PLAYABLE OPERATORS

For this event, most Operators will be available to play, with a few exceptions for gameplay reasons that deal with drones and cameras. We’ll explain in a moment but know that for the playable characters with customization exclusive to this event, their robotic appearances will be automatically equipped.

RULES OF THE EVENT

Whether or not you’re used to playing Secure Area, you’ll probably find this game mode quite unique. For starters, Attackers will have to secure not one, but two areas. Divide or unite your tactics accordingly, because Defenders will have to protect twice as many objectives!

However, the special thing about this event is the Operators’ use of technology. On the attacking side, you’ll be able to switch between Operator and Drone forms by entering and exiting Observation Tools. This means that while you’re controlling your drone, your Operator is nowhere to be seen. Then, when you switch back, your Operator will be where your drone was. You cannot control your teammates’ drones, but if you’re eliminated in Drone form, you’ll respawn in Operator form.

On the defending side, you can use indestructible cameras to travel digitally. Opening Observation Tools will make your Operator enter the network and exiting them will make the Operator appear in front of the last controlled camera. Navigate those electronic pathways, and victory could be yours!

THE COLLECTION

The M.U.T.E. Protocol event comes with its own Collection of 26 items, featuring exclusive customization for Jackal, Lion, Ying, Kapkan, Mira, Mute, Oryx and Vigil. These high-tech stylings are the same you’ll find in-game by picking these Operators to play the Event. Inside the packs, you’ll also find some signature items, including the event’s signature weapon skin, exclusive to this Collection.

You can earn M.U.T.E Protocol packs through a special Event Challenge. You can also purchase packs for 300 R6 Credits or 12500 Renown each in the Packs section of the Home screen.

We have been listening to the community’s requests, so each Operator’s exclusive, time-limited customization items are also available for purchase as Bundles in the Shop section for 1680 R6 Credits each. Year Pass owners can purchase bundles and packs for a 10% rebate.
