Stronghold Special Operation: A Full Guide

[p]Delta… This is Noda. Finally, I’ve managed to reach you again.[/p][p]I’m sending this message over a restricted channel. General Wharton is being held on Labyrinth Island, one of the most secure hostile facilities in Northern Europe. The enemy believes no one will attempt an extraction. [/p]
[p]They’re wrong.[/p]
[previewyoutube]
[/previewyoutube][hr][/hr][h2]Mission Lore[/h2]
[p]This operation unfolds in two stages, telling a whole story of bringing General Wharton home.[/p]
[h3]Stronghold (coop mission)[/h3]
[p]Your mission begins on the outer edge of Labyrinth Island. The facility was built to isolate, confuse, and eliminate intruders, but we’ve mapped enough of it to guide you through.[/p]
[h4]Rocky Shore[/h4][p]You’ll land on exposed platforms where the sea never quiets down. Enemy snipers watch these routes, and patrols move between elevated positions. I’ll order the bugs to attack the guards. But those insects aren’t exactly obedient, so don’t get too close. Stay sharp, move fast, and don’t let them spot you.[/p]
[h4]Old City[/h4]
[p]Moving inland, you’ll fight through narrow streets, inner yards, and wide defensive boulevards. Warface forces, snipers, and my bugs clash for control, and you’ll need to navigate blocked routes, secure keycards, and neutralize jammers to progress. Eventually, you’ll breach the library complex and face a shielded cyborg boss before reaching the upper district that leads straight to the prison.[/p]
[h4]Bridge[/h4]
[p]The approach to the bridge takes you through a graveyard where you’ll activate Mech, an autonomous ally designed to clear the path ahead. Together you’ll push across the heavily fortified bridge until an enemy helicopter intervenes, destroying Mech and forcing you to jump down to the lower levels beneath the fortress.[/p]
[h4]Catacombs[/h4]
[p]Below the city lie the flooded technical tunnels and collectors. Cyborgs roam the darkness, bugs attack from above, and rising water forces you to climb quickly while fighting off attackers. Survive the ascent, and you’ll reach the chamber leading into the island’s core.[/p]
[h4]Heart of the Labyrinth[/h4]
[p]You’ll enter a large presentation hall where a multi-phase cyborg commander awaits. Defeat it, ascend to the rooftop helipad, and you’ll find Wharton already freed and waiting. That’s where I’ll meet you on the comms, and where we end this part of the operation.[/p]
[hr][/hr][h3]Stronghold: Wharton’s Path (solo mission)[/h3]
[p]Your actions here will destabilize the island’s defenses… which is exactly what Wharton needs to escape from the prison.[/p]
Originally posted by yellow
[color]Solo completion is available only in the Сampaign mode and only in single-player mode.[/color]
[h3]Labyrinth Prison[/h3]
[p]A bug breaks into his cell, kills the guard, and opens his way out. Wharton arms himself with a crowbar, slips through ventilation shafts, and quietly eliminates the remaining prison guards. Disguised in a guard’s uniform, he escapes the block unnoticed.[/p]
[h4]Lower Bridge Tier[/h4]
[p]To exit the checkpoint, Wharton either steals a guard’s key or takes it by force. Beneath the bridge, he crosses a hazardous platforming section while fighting bugs and the occasional patrol. Midway through, he picks up a sniper rifle to cover his path.[/p]
[h4]Catacombs[/h4]
[p]Wharton pushes through tight catacomb tunnels crawling with bugs and cyborgs, scavenging a shotgun, a grenade launcher, and Molotovs. In a dark, multi-level chamber, he restores power, survives an assault, and activates a console to unlock the final corridor.[/p]
[h4]Final Confrontation[/h4]
[p]Reaching the office above the catacombs, Wharton bursts in and eliminates the traitor Scott, either with his shotgun or by detonating a bug, bringing the escape to an end. How do you unlock both endings? We’ll leave that for you to figure out.[/p]
[hr][/hr][h2]Unique Achievements[/h2]
[p]Alongside the main rewards, the mission features a set of unique achievements available only in Stronghold. Some of them are earned naturally as you progress through the operation, while others require attention, curiosity, and a bit of exploration.[/p]
[hr][/hr][p][color]Delta, I’ll be blunt. If you fail, Wharton will disappear into the island’s depths, and we may never get another chance. I’ll guide you remotely for as long as the signal holds. Move fast, stay sharp… and bring him home.[/color][/p]

New Agent: Linus Rimmel

[p]Agent Linus moves like a ghost, loyal to nothing but the code he believes in and the home he refuses to surrender. The Labyrinth will soon learn that the man who looks ordinary on the outside is in fact anything but, and that some battles are won before a single shot is fired.[/p][p]Check out special contracts to receive the agent’s permanent gun and random boxes with his Rifleman skin. More random boxes with the agent’s gun and skin are available in the Shop.[/p][p]More of Linus Rimmel’s class skins will become obtainable during the winter season.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][hr][/hr][h2]Agent’s Biography[/h2][p]Linus Rimmel never thought of himself as a soldier. Born on the outskirts where a life of endless poverty was hard and opportunities rarer still, he found escape in tales of soldiers long gone, stories of brotherhood, honor, and order in a chaotic world. By the time he was old enough to enlist, he had made his choice: he would chase that order, even if it meant leaving everything behind.[/p][p]The garrison on the island fortress became his sanctuary. Life there was measured and predictable, following the steady rhythm of drills; patrols and quiet camaraderie were all he had ever wanted. For the first time, Linus felt he belonged.[/p][p]Then the world shifted. The island was sold to the Labyrinth, the garrison dissolved, and the calm of his ordered life was replaced with the cold calculations of corporate ambition. His comrades chased pay, promotions, and prestige, mocking him for refusing to follow, but Linus stayed, as no other place felt like home. He upheld the old codes, watched the new masters with quiet disapproval, and endured.[/p][p]Then came the letter. A mysterious hacker offered payment for the fortress’s blueprints — a chance to turn its secrets against those who had taken it from him and save a life. Linus accepted. Revenge became strategy, sharpened into precision, and erupted into action to save General Wharton. Linus knew the fortress inside out, every patrol, every weakness. When Noda reached out, he became the unseen hand that could bend the shadowy corridors to their advantage.[/p][hr][/hr][h2]Linus Rimmel’s Rifleman Set[/h2][p]A compact frame, subsonic ammo, and devastating penetration, the Strike of Loyalty ShAK-12 was engineered for close-quarters domination. In Linus’s hands, it becomes a methodical tool, enabling deliberate and decisive shots that end conflicts in an instant.

Echoes of Valor Seasonal Update — 18.12.2025

[p]Warriors![/p]
[p]The bells toll above ancient walls, calling fighters back to the battlefield. Behind iron gates and towering ramparts lies the impregnable Stronghold, where General Wharton is held captive by the shadowy organization known as the Labyrinth.[/p]
[p]Bring the brave General Wharton home in the new Echoes of Valor season, which offers two Special Operations and numerous activities. Also, get ready for major UI and gameplay improvements for clearer, smoother navigation, progression, and combat.[/p]
[p]The stones of this medieval city remember every battle. Are you brave enough to take up its challenge?[/p]

[/previewyoutube][hr][/hr][h2]Seasonal Roadmap[/h2]
[hr][/hr][h2]New Content[/h2]

[p]The events unfold on a grim Northern European island, home to the impregnable Stronghold.[/p][p]Your primary objective is to rescue General Wharton by any means necessary. You will take part in a coordinated assault as a member of Delta Squad, then take on a solo mission playing as Wharton himself in Campaign mode. Complete the operation as a team by storming the fortifications, then continue alone by navigating secret tunnels toward a decisive confrontation with the traitor.[/p][p]The number of Crown rewards for the SO completion is doubled. The increased rewards will be active throughout the winter season. Learn more about the new Special Operation in a dedicated article.[/p]
[h3]ShAK-12[/h3]
[p]The ShAK-12, developed by TsKIB SOO, is a high-caliber battle rifle used by Russian Special Forces since 2011. Designed for high-risk law enforcement operations, it delivers high stopping power with limited penetration and a short 'dangerous range' to minimize collateral damage. The rifle chambers specialized large-caliber ammunition, making it ideal for various close-quarters missions.[/p]
[previewyoutube]
[/previewyoutube][p]A classic heavy assault rifle with a high headshot damage multiplier, solid base damage, and good range that can be further increased with mods. Its excellent accuracy while aiming is balanced by average hip-fire accuracy, a relatively low magazine capacity, and noticeable recoil. In the hands of an experienced Rifleman, it becomes a truly formidable weapon.[/p][h3]Soon: Christmas Event and Agent[/h3]
[p]Winter has arrived, bringing the festive event Shattered Heart, filled with holiday magic and fun! Take part in PvP and PvE activities to earn event currency and unlock rewards from the new Ice Power weapon series.[/p]
[p]The event features PvP Brawl mod, played on Xmas Factory, Trailer Park, and Forest maps. [/p]
[p]The core mechanics of the event remain unchanged, but this time several new additions have been introduced, including:[/p]
  • [p]extended event duration — four weeks instead of the usual three;[/p]
  • [p]the ability to purchase camouflages from the new weapon series in the event Showcase. This is particularly useful if you already own the featured weapon, as camouflages are significantly cheaper than the weapon itself.[/p]
[p]The winter fairytale is approaching; its arrival is scheduled for next Thursday.[/p]
[p]Linus Rimmel, born into poverty and never seeing himself as a soldier, found purpose in the disciplined life of an island fortress garrison, where he finally felt he belonged. At that moment, he did not yet know that he was destined to turn against the very place that had become his sanctuary when Noda sought his help in rescuing General Wharton, imprisoned within its walls.[/p]
[p]This Rifleman is equipped with the heavy ShAK-12 assault rifle featuring the Strike of Loyalty camo.[/p]

[h3]Old Weapon Stat Changes[/h3]
