The main attraction of version 2.2.3 is the Attack Helo tower. This tower is an attack helicopter that shoots rocket pods in three distinct modes: set location, follow player, and pursuit.

Attack Helo is adept at ranged combat, allowing you to deal AoE damage from afar with a relentless barrage of rockets. You can unlock this unit at level 85 for 82,000 Cash or with 2,950 Robux.

The other new unit is the Sentry Tower, an automated turret that locks onto enemies within range and unleashes a hail of bullets at them. If destroyed, the turret can rebuild itself, making it a particularly resilient tower. You can purchase it for 7,250 Cash.

Version 2.2.3 also adds 10 new maps to the game, which are listed below:

• Anchor: Simple difficulty
• Baseplate: Impossible difficulty
• Gas Station: Hard difficulty
• GDI Port City: Normal difficulty
• Hakurei Shrine: Normal difficulty
• Junction: Easy difficulty
• Outpost Forge: Simple difficulty
• Route: Normal difficulty
