Holiday Ops 2025: Winter Raid Mode

Commanders!

Dive into Winter Raid, the new game mode available during Holiday Ops 2025. Fight in a snow-covered paper world with three teams of five players, and collect more gifts than your opponents.
The holiday-themed mayhem unfolds over three weekends and three Chapters. Get ready for unique vehicles, icy challenges, and festive rewards.


[h2]Rules[/h2]
Winter Raid pits three teams of five players against each other. Collect gifts scattered across the map and bring them back to your base to rack up points. Defeat enemies, overcome AI bots, and survive surprise snowstorms to secure rewards. The first team to collect 50 gifts—or the team with the most when the timer runs out—claims victory!

[h2]Schedule[/h2]
Winter Raid is only available during three weekends, each adding a new Chapter and fresh missions. Each Chapter unlocks more exclusive prizes, so log in each weekend to get the most out of this festive mode!
