Preview Gameplay 1.53 - Eastern Forces
Attention, Operators—
The new major Early Access update for Black One Blood Brothers, titled "Eastern Forces", will arrive in mid-April! But before its deployment, here’s a quick briefing on what to expect. This update isn’t just about new uniforms for your squad — it’s a real step forward in the game's development. Here’s what you need to know about this major update.
You asked for it—Helios delivered. Tactics on the field just got sharper. In addition to quick orders, you can now synchronize your squad’s shots. Mark a target and it’ll be assigned to the nearest Operator. Count to three… and let them fly.
Just make sure your line of sight is clear.
Immersion has always been at the heart of Helios’ vision. That’s why aiming has been completely reworked. No more jarring camera movements—the transition into your sights is now smooth and natural, giving you tighter control when it matters most.
To take realism to the next level, the recoil system has been rebuilt from the ground up. Instead of static or unnatural reactions, Operators now use dynamic data to generate procedural recoil patterns with every shot. Reloads and weapon handling have also been updated with smoother, more lifelike animations.
Tactical movement matters. In FPS view, your operator will now lean automatically when close to walls or corners. You’ll control the lean direction with your mouse to peek around angles while staying in cover and maintaining stealth.
These are just a few of the features coming your way—and we can’t wait for you to try them. As always, your feedback is crucial. Join us on Discord or Steam to share your thoughts and help shape what’s next.

Until then… stay sharp, Operators.
