All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Command the skies in the new fighter jets, earn skins for your weaponry with Gun Mastery, check out the new Conquest map: Karst, and more! A new Forefront update is AVAILABLE NOW!Find out more details in our Discord and read the full changelog below!

New Vehicle: Fighter Jet!

For a while, our team ruled out adding jets to Forefront. Even so, players kept getting excited about the possibilities, and slowly, it became clear to us that there was something compelling about the idea. We do always say that things can change, so we revisited the concept as an experimental vehicle.Today, players will be able to pilot fighter jets in Forefront. Get into dogfights, shoot lock-on missiles, utilize VTOL, and enjoy both arcade or physical controls to conquer the airspace as you see fit. The fighter jet will be available on our new map, Karst, and on a Paradise Map Variant. Players will be able to spawn in it from the spawn menu.In future updates, we want to adjust the jet according to player feedback. This is an experimental vehicle, and so your feedback will be instrumental in ensuring we make the right adjustments. So, let us know what you think!

New Conquest Map: Karst!

With Karst, players are headed to Vietnam. Fly between the gorgeous limestone cliffs, and sail the treacherous waters with a fishing village at the center of it all.The isolated village at the center of Karst can only be reached by boat or aircraft. It was once a peaceful place, until O.R.E. discovered the locals there were trading suspiciously large amounts of Red Orpiment. Determined to find the source, O.R.E. launched an invasion of the region. Coalition Forces deployed in response to neutralize O.R.E.'s operations in the area.

Earn Skins with Gun Mastery!

Not only can players enjoy a new map and vehicle, they can also level up their Gun Mastery with headshots for every weapon in the game to gain access to five different tiers of weapon patterns, player titles for every weapon type, and a kill card + player title for maxing out all weapons in the game. Every weapon in the game can progress through these various tiers. Can you unlock everything?As always, let us know what you think about the game and the update in our Discord. We’re always looking forward to your feedback. Cheers, and see you in the game! -TF
