May Day event!

Find out how to get a unique Operator equipped with a full USMC Marpat camouflage kit during the WW3 May Day event, as well as elements of themed equipment that your own Operator can be equipped with.



May Day is a folk festival originating back in Slavic culture. Taking place in the first half of May, depending on the region, this colourful festival aims to welcome spring. The details of the celebrations and the timeframe vary depending on the region and the country in which the event takes place.

However, when it comes to the May Day event in World War 3, its course will be quite different from the course of the holiday on which we have based it.

From the 18th of May at 06:00 CEST until the 22nd of May at 06:00 CEST. Log into WW3 each day and then check your Inventory to claim your gift. The full set consists of the following equipment and Operator:

[h3]May Day Operator | Grand prize for a full sequence of logins[/h3]

This unique Operator has chosen his equipment to make any operation during the spring turmoil both comfortable and safe. Dressed in full Marpat camouflage with coyote-coloured accoutrements, he will be perfectly camouflaged both in the teeming forest glade and in CQB in the dense urban jungle. In addition to the Kevlar helmet with camouflage netting, a set of joint protectors and a pair of lightweight tactical boots made from a combination of suede and the latest synthetics to ensure both operator comfort and traction on any surface, including morning dew on blades of grass.



[h3]May Day Gloves | Day 1[/h3]

Hands are essential to the job of Operator. Protect them from the razor-sharp blades of grass and shards of glass that are common on WW3 battlefields. The Marpat gloves with Coyote colour elements will also give you a firm grip on any weapon you pick up.



[h3]May Day Lower Body | Day 2[/h3]

The long trousers in Marpat with Ripstop technology will protect the operator as he moves around the grass and the rubble of the city. Additional modular pockets will allow you to carry more items needed on the battlefield. Modern tactical boots will keep your feet warm and dry.



[h3]May Day Body | Day 3[/h3]

The Marpat shirt, made in ripstop technology, allows the skin to breathe comfortably and provides the necessary protection from the spring environment surrounding the operator. The shirt is overlaid with a tactical coyote-coloured vest with ballistic inserts and several pockets. In addition to the radio, there is a bayonet for the AK family of rifles - just in case.



[h3]May Day Facewear | Day 4[/h3]

Protect your operator's neck and head with the Coyote Balaclava. Not only will it provide the right level of thermal insulation during the morning frosts, but it will also prove to be an essential element of discretion.



[h3]May Day Headwear | Bonus prize for a full sequence of logins[/h3]

Wear a comfortable Kevlar helmet with camouflage mesh in Marpat to protect your head from spring rain and rounds or debris. Protect your eyes from the dust and pollen flying around with sealed goggles in Coyote.

Operation Sunstorm – Recap from Tokyo

The war on Japanese mainland islands has begun unexpectedly…

Certainly unexpected for the millions of residents and thousands of tourists who went about their daily lives or just wanted to have some fun during holidays.

However, the operation in the region has now been underway for more than one month.

During this time, we have collected for you the most interesting materials from people who were in the wrong place at the wrong time and agreed to share their private footage and messages directly with us. From the first minutes after the attack to the difficult days that followed for the whole region and the country.



In addition to bystander footage, we have also been able to gather some intelligence. We already know where the first phase of attack has taken place. We also know what equipment is being used in the Japanese capital. However, it is still a mystery who was behind the attack.



All of this and much more information that we are gathering all the time is available on our dedicated Operation Sunstorm page.

A must-read to keep up to date with what's happening in #WW3Lore!
