Charity Drive and Exfil final Tournament of 2025

[h3]Hey there Operators![/h3][p]
In conjunction with “Always Give Back” veterans Charity and “American Legion gaming” we are excited to announce that this saturday we will be hosting a charity event sponsored by the Tiny Leviathan development team.

Always Give back on Kick! American Legion Gaming on Kick!

Starting at approx 12pm PST / 2pm central /  9pm CET we will be putting up $1000 USD matching fund and challenging the community to match us dollar for dollar in order to secure a brand new gaming PC with Exfil installed for a deserving American veteran (hand built by the charity). This event will also wrap around our final Hawks Tournament of the year for which we currently have approx 7 teams signed up. . There is still time and space to sign up as well!

Sign Up Now!

More Info at Hawks Discord!


This 2vs2 tournament is like a game of chess with a stick of dynamite thrown in. Each team competing to our manuver the other and ultimately escape with the intel or eliminate the other team.

So far the prizes for top team include Adidas Merch, Exfil Merch, Exfil game keys, Steam Gift cards ($25).



Developer AMA

The tourney event will be followed by a live AMA with the Exfil Developers from approx 5pm central time and conclude with hopefully having the community match our $1000 fund!

This should be a great celebration for the community… for Exfil and a chance to show off the progress on the year and get some great games in. If you want to support Exfil and you want to help us get noticed please come and play anytime during the event saturday or even just tune into the broadcasts.

Your support means everything to us as Developers and to the greater Veteran community as well.

Until sat.. Merry Christmas and see you all there!

🧭 Patch Notes (Now Live on Main Branch) [/h3][p]
Changes in the last year! [/p][p]Happy demo week! Note that during this time the game doesn't use Steam for networking, so that we can have compatibility with the main game and Steam. After the demo period is over, the game will be switched back to Steam only. You don't have to create any new accounts for this.[/p][p]
We have put together for the community a nice graphic covering most of the changes in the past year just to show how far Exfil has come with your support! [/p][p]
Additional Content We are happy as well to release our community content pack to all owners of EXFIL. This community pack is small for now, just 3 new skins but we expect it to grow over time as do more and more work with the community. Special thanks to GeneralLee and Purgepapa for the skins!
[/p][p][/p][p]Known Issues[/p]
  • [p]The Steam server browser won't show any results for Exfil during the demo period, since Steam is not used for networking as previously mentioned.[/p]
  • [p]T-Pose caused by missing animations when holding some utilities[/p]
  • [p]Stubborn scope Optic material issue on 3x. Swap weapons to reset[/p]
  • [p]Sometimes heli is spawning in trees on new map! (need to reset match)
    [/p]
[p]Play EXFIL for free now through Dec 31st.
[/p][p]No limits. No barriers. Just pure tactics and precision! [/p]
