Use a ticket to join a raid. The system will distribute identical equipment to all players upon entering the raid. No equipment is required, and supplies cannot be brought into this mode.[/p][p]**Once the event starts, you can claim 5 free Melee-Only Combat tickets from the Events page.[/p][p]2. The Melee-Only Combat mode can only be entered via solo matchmaking, and only melee weapons can be used.[/p][p]3. Melee-Only Combat will be available in Northridge Hotel. There are 9 safes scattered across the map, 5 of which are in locked rooms. You cannot use personal keys or Cases, but you can use Universal Keys and Retrieval Devices found in the raid.[/p][p]4. Some time after the raid starts, an air drop containing chest rigs, backpacks, and miscellaneous items will land at the Hotel's central pool area.[/p][p]5. A boss wielding a melee weapon has a chance to spawn at the Hotel's central pool area, and the boss is guaranteed to drop a Universal Keycard Chain.[/p][p]6. There are two extraction points in this mode.[/p][p]Hotel Main Entrance Extraction Point: Flip the switch 10 minutes after the raid starts to activate it, and all players within the extraction point can extract in 2 minutes. This extraction point's activation will be broadcasted to all players on the map, and it can be activated multiple times.[/p][p]Armored Vehicle Extraction Point: Submit 2 dog tags to activate it, and all players within the extraction point can extract in 30 seconds. This extraction point can only be used once per raid.[/p][p][/p][p]Fixes & Improvements[/p][p]1. Increased Drop Rate for Season 4 Collectibles: EEG, Real Matrix, Ancient Golden Mask Replica, and Capsule TV.[/p][p]2. While the Airport map will continue to have the highest drop rates, the loot value in other Lockdown Zones and Forbidden Zones has been increased further when compared to last season.[/p][p]3. Improved the market economy system. The circulation of commonly used supplies will be gradually adjusted to better align their market price with their tactical value in raids.[/p][p]4. Due to data inconsistencies, the following stats have been temporarily removed from Tactical Files: Item Farming Runs, Most Distance Traveled in One Raid, and Safes Opened. We will continue to optimize these features for a future update.[/p][p]5. Fixed the issue that allowed players to reach unintended areas on the Airport, TV Station, and Farm maps.[/p][p]6. Fixed the issue where characters could get stuck in several locations on the Farm, TV Station, and Northridge maps.[/p][p]7. Fixed the issue on the Airport map, where the biscuit tin on the forklift at the Construction Site couldn't be looted.[/p][p]8. Fixed the issue with accessories and visual effects for the Reactive Xenon series weapon skins.[/p][p]9. Fixed the issue that caused the sound of some footsteps to vanish when sprinting with the Neon Pulse equipped.[/p][p]10. Fixed the audio issue that occurs when inspecting the Neon Pulse.[/p][p]11. Fixed the issue where acquiring contraband was not counted for weekly activity missions.[/p][p]12. Fixed the issue with the Building a Stronghold mission, where enemies eliminated in the subsidence area of the Fuel Storage were not being counted.[/p][p][/p][p]Thanks again for your valuable feedback and suggestions![/p][p]Happy gaming![/p][p][/p][p]The Arena Breakout: Infinite Team[/p][p]Jan. 14, 2026 (UTC+0)[/p][p][/p]
