2) New modes

Five new modes, along with a Vortex Playlist, will be available in Season 2.

• Team Gun Game (Launch): In this mode, players can earn a set of pre-determined weapons by accumulating points. Each player will begin with the same weapon and progress to the next weapon by securing kills. The first team to score 75 points wins the match.
• Snipers Only (Launch): This is a sniper-focused mode, with limited weapon selections and restrictions on all weapons other than snipers, including lethal and tactical equipment.
• Hordepoint (Limited-Time Mode, Launch): This LTM combines the intensity of Hardpoint mode with a shambling mass of Call of Duty: WWII (2017) zombies.
• Juggermosh (Limited-Time Mode, Mid-Season): This is a special third-person mode featuring constant Juggernaut battles within matches of Kill Confirmed, Domination, and Hardpoint.
• Bounty (Mid-Season): In this mode, players have unlimited lives and need to reach the score limit to win. The twist is that each team's player with the highest kill count is marked as the HVT (High-Value Target), alternating between teams at set intervals. Eliminating the HVT awards extra points.
• Vortex Playlist: Decay’s Realm (Limited-Time, Mid-Season): This mode will include otherworldly locations such as Tetanus, Satan's Quarry, and Sporeyard, alongside new map variations like Skidgrow and Airborne. It will feature Team Deathmatch, Domination, Kill Confirmed, and Hardpoint on rotation.

4) Four new weapons

• BP50 (Launch): An assault rifle with a high rate of fire and exceptional accuracy, making it ideal for mid to long-range battles.
• RAM-9 (Launch): A submachine gun designed for increased maneuverability and agility, featuring best-in-class recoil control and proving lethal in close-range combat.
• SOA Subverter (In-Season): A battle rifle offering an excellent rate of fire, accuracy, manageable recoil, sprint-to-fire, and movement speeds to dominate mid to long-range battles.
• Soulrender (In-season): A melee weapon designed with a ceremonial blade style, capable of delivering razor-sharp cuts and performing deadly melee action in close-quarter engagements.
